Q: How often should house windows be repaired?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-windows-last.htm">Most windows last</a> for <b>15 to 30 years</b>, depending on the frame material and the glass quality, but most will require repairs during that time. Windows gradually lose efficiency, so it&rsquo;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:</p><ul><li><p>Leaks</p></li><li><p>Drafts</p></li><li><p>Difficulty opening or closing</p></li><li><p>Sudden increases in heating and cooling bills</p></li><li><p>Outdoor noise becomes more audible</p></li><li><p>Signs of physical damage</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How long do window screens normally last?

• <div><p>Windows screens normally last between 10 and 12 years before they need to be replaced. Rips, tears, or brittle material can all compromise window screen function. While small tears can be repaired, larger areas of damage are an indication that it&rsquo;s time to replace the entire screen. Other signs of damaged window screens to look out for include sagging, fading, or spots that look thinner compared to the rest of the screen.</p></div>

Q: Do awning windows have screens?

• <div><p>Awning windows can have screens, but it depends on your manufacturer. If your awning window does have a screen, it will be on the interior side so it doesn&rsquo;t get in the way when you crank the window open. Having the screen on the inner part of the window also makes it easier to clean from inside your home. </p></div>

Q: What is the most affordable way to screen a porch?

• <div><p>The most affordable way to screen in a porch is to add a base track system to an existing wooden frame. The whole process should cost around <b>$2,000 </b>for supplies, depending on the size of your porch. It&rsquo;s much pricier to build a screened-in porch or sunroom from scratch&mdash;and you&rsquo;ll probably need to hire a contractor for a project like that.</p></div>

Q: What holds the screen in place on a screen door?

• <div><p>The screen on many screen doors is held in place by screen spline. Screen spline is typically a thin vinyl tubing that fits into the groove of the door&rsquo;s frame and holds the screen in place. To install the spline on a screen door, you&rsquo;ll need a spline roller&mdash;a tool that presses the spline and screen into the door&rsquo;s narrow groove. Note that old spline can crack and break, so replacing your screens is a good time to replace the spline, too. </p></div>

I felt a little mislead with the pricing; I would've liked a break down of all the repairs. The price was high. After he did the repairs, I felt like they were a little pushy on more repairs. I didn't feel as though I could trust what they were saying. He did show me before and after pictures,...
