If your window screens are damaged or worn out, it's time to consider your options for window screen replacements. Call Total Screen today to get window screen replacements for your home.
Window screens play a crucial role in protecting your home from outside elements, insects, and even intruders.
Signs that your window screens need replacement include: cuts, tears, holes, loose parts, splits, or separation from the frame.
When it comes to window screen replacement options, you have two choices:
Do-It-Yourself: Buy 'one-size-fits-most' window screens from hardware store, and then install the screens yourself.
Hire-A-Pro: Call Total Screen; they'll make window screens perfectly-sized to fit your windows, plus they'll handle all installation, and they dispose of your old screens, too.
D-I-Y Window Screen Replacement
If you opt for the Do-It-Yourself route, you can purchase pre-made window screens from your local hardware store.
These hardware-store window screens typically feature lightweight, hollow-aluminum frames with a fiberglass mesh.
Pre-made window screen replacements may be a more affordable option upfront, but their fiberglass mesh loses its UV protection & effectiveness after a few years.
Pre-Made Replacement Window Screens
Hardware store window screens are often a "one-size-fits-most" solution, meaning you may end up with a larger screen than your window requires.
Having a pre-made window screen that's slightly-too big will necessitate mounting the screen beyond the window frame on your exterior wall.
Be prepared to be on a ladder while you install your hardware-store window screen replacements; ground-floor windows can require a sturdy short ladder.
After you finish installing all the hardware-store window screens on your home, be sure to clean and vacuum underneath all of the window areas.
Your hardware-store replacement window screens will last for several years, ideally.
