Window Screens
Our main work is porch and patio screening, but we do take on window screens, and rescreening is the sensible place to start: if the frames are sound, only the mesh needs replacing. We book this work from November through March at the winter rate, with no waiting list, so everything is back in before the first warm day.
We reply to every message within one business day.
Window screen work is booked November through March. That is when it goes in at the winter rate with no waiting list, and it means your screens are finished and back in place before you need them. Send a count and rough sizes and we will quote it.
Rescreening existing frames
Most window screens do not need replacing. The aluminum frame usually outlasts the mesh by years, so we re-mesh what you have in your choice of fabric and only rebuild frame sections that are genuinely damaged. It costs a fraction of new and takes a fraction of the time.

What we need to know to build them

- Frame type and colour: we stock white, bronze, tan and mill in several profile sizes
- Type of screen material: fiberglass, polyester or metal mesh
- Hardware type and placement: plungers, leaf springs, pull tabs and so on
We are not responsible for incorrect measurements provided to us when you order online, and all sales of prebuilt screens are final. If you are unsure, have us measure instead. It costs less than a wrong screen.
How to measure a window screen
The screen size is not the window size. A screen is always smaller than the window it sits in. Measure tip-to-tip on both width and height, from the outside corner of one side to the outside corner of the other. Getting this right, along with the hardware, is the most important part of ordering.
The most common screen frame is 3/4" × 7/16". If you are starting a new project we usually recommend the 1" × 7/16" Simplicity® profile instead. It is our bestselling screen frame product and it holds tension better at size.
Struggling with the measurements, or not sure which option is right? Our technicians can measure for you anywhere in Connecticut. Additional charges may apply. Call (203) 269-4499 to book an appointment.
