FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Repair or replace?

A hole in the mesh fixes with a rescreening kit. A bent frame or a screen torn in several places is better replaced.

Which type?

Fixed screens are budget; sliding and retractable screens cost more but open. Choice depends on the window and use.

How long does it take?

A simple rescreening takes 30-60 minutes per screen.
