Are garage screens worth it?

• <div><p>If you use your garage often, then yes, a garage screen is absolutely worth the investment. Whether you use your garage as a home gym, a workshop, or for some other hobby, there are few things more enjoyable than allowing some fresh air and natural light in without having to worry about bugs. Plus, , in exchange for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-save-money-garage-insulation.htm">garage insulation</a>, a garage door screen can provide ventilation that might improve the air quality if you’re producing sawdust or using paints, varnishes, or other potential harmful chemicals.</p></div>

Can you add a screen door to any door frame?

• <div><p>Yes, you can add a screen door to most door frames. The screen should be able to fit standard-size door frames, so unless you have an unusually sized door, you shouldn’t have an issue. Just make sure to properly measure the frame. When in doubt, it’s best to let a pro take care of this task for you so it’s installed correctly.</p></div>

Q: Why did my window seal fail?

• <div><p>Window seals don&rsquo;t last forever, so they&rsquo;ll inevitably fail for one reason or another. One of the most common reasons is the expansion and contraction of the glass. When the glass gets warm from sunlight, it expands and adds pressure to the seal; at night, as the glass cools, it contracts. This process, day in and day out, can eventually cause the seal to fail. Other common sources of failure include the house settling over time, chemicals that damage the seal when <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-paint-window-frame.htm">repainting windows</a>, and incorrect window installation.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to screen a 12x12 porch?

• <div><p>A 12-foot-by-12-foot porch is a 144-square-foot porch. It costs about $5 to $7 per square foot to add a screen. So, you&rsquo;ll likely pay between $700 and $1,000 to screen in your porch, depending on the type of screen you choose. If you&rsquo;re starting from scratch, building a new 12-foot-by-12-foot screened-in porch will cost about $6,400 to $18,300.</p></div>

Q: How long do window screens last?

• <div><p>Most window screens hold up for about 10 to 12 years&mdash;assuming they&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-window-screens.htm">made from quality materials</a> and get decent care. Fiberglass and aluminum are common, but their lifespan varies depending on how much weather they&rsquo;re exposed to. Constant sun or rough winters can speed up wear and tear, while regular cleaning and basic window maintenance can help them last longer. Damage from pets or a rogue tree branch can also shorten their life. If the mesh is torn, the frame&rsquo;s bent, or they&rsquo;ve faded to a dull gray, it&rsquo;s probably time to swap them out for something new. </p></div>

Austin did a wonderful job at repairing the water leak in my front yard. He was really professional and knowledgeable. I hired him again to relocate a faucet buried in the ground.
