Most windows last for 15 to 30 years, depending on the frame material and the glass quality, but most will require repairs during that time. Windows gradually lose efficiency, so it’s usually best to have a window repair technician inspect and service your windows every five to 10 years. You should also repair your windows if you experience the following:

• Leaks

• Drafts

• Difficulty opening or closing

• Sudden increases in heating and cooling bills

• Outdoor noise becomes more audible

• Signs of physical damage

Window screen repair costs an average of $310, with a typical range of $100 to $480. The final price depends on several factors, including the window size, accessibility, screen type, whether the frame needs replacement, and especially the screen material.

The cost of window screen materials varies widely based on durability and features:

• Fiberglass: $35–$200

• Aluminum: $50–$300

• Copper: $90–$850

• Stainless Steel: $45–$400

• Brass: $100–$900

• Solar: $55–$850

• Security: $100–$1,000

• Vinyl: $25–$120

Costs also differ by screen type. For instance, a prefabricated screen might cost only $40, moveable screens typically run $25 to $75, and retractable screens range from $300 to $900. To save money, you can choose more affordable materials like vinyl or fiberglass, opt to rescreen instead of replacing the entire frame, and have multiple screens repaired at once to reduce labor costs.
