Screen Options and Price
An existing-frame rescreen costs $25 to $75 per frame. We select from standard insect, solar, pet, No-See-Um, and heavy-duty screening based on the application.
Tools and Materials
We use screen spline and a spline roller for rescreening work. Jupiter’s annual humidity is in the low seventies, so corrosion-resistant fasteners and careful sealing are especially important when we work on aluminum screens.
Screened-Enclosure Setup
For screened-enclosure panels, we use walkboards or ladders rather than walking on the enclosure frame.
Jupiter-series ground can have a seasonal high water table within roughly a foot of the surface. Undrained areas may pond for days or weeks, leaving post holes, slab edges, and drainage areas wet during the rainy season. Seasonal moisture cycles also move soil and stress foundations. If water is standing around the enclosure, let us know before the visit so we can plan where to place our access equipment.
How It Works

Reach Out
A two-minute call is enough to tell us what we're working with and what to check first.
-
Free Inspection
We come out, measure what's actually happening, and walk you through what we find.
-
Clear, Written Quote
We put the fix, the timeline, and the number on paper — take your time with it.
-
Job Done, Checked, Cleaned Up
We complete the repair, verify it solved the problem, and stand behind the work.
Some of what that looks like in the field:
- The technician lays replacement mesh over the frame with approximately one-half inch of overlap on each side.
- The technician rolls the mesh and spline into the retaining groove with a spline roller while keeping the fabric taut but not overstretched.

Questions Jupiter Homeowners Ask
How quickly should a professional screen contractor be able to complete replacement screens?
For standard window and door screens, a professional technician can often complete the work on-site within 15 to 30 minutes per screen. The process involves removing the old spline and mesh, rolling new mesh tautly into the frame channel, and trimming the excess, allowing for fast, same-day service.
Can a badly torn screen be repaired, or does the entire screen need to be replaced, and what will each option cost?
A small tear can often be fixed with a patch or spot repair, which typically costs $20 to $70. However, for badly torn mesh, you will need to rescreen the existing frame, costing between $25 and $75. If the frame itself is also damaged, a full screen replacement with a new frame and mesh ranges from $75 to $300.
Is a quote of roughly $2,000 for a sliding screen and track replacement unreasonable, and should I get other estimates?
While a standard full screen replacement with a new frame and mesh typically ranges from $75 to $300, heavy-duty sliding doors or custom track reconstructions can cost more. To ensure you are getting a fair price, always request detailed, itemized estimates from multiple local contractors to compare labor and material costs before signing.
Should I contact the window manufacturer for replacement screens, or can a local screen contractor make them for less?
Ordering directly from the window manufacturer ensures an exact OEM fit but is often highly expensive. A local screen contractor can custom-build a full screen replacement with a new frame and mesh for $75 to $300, which is typically much more cost-effective and faster than ordering factory replacements.
How can I avoid an estimate that is far higher than the materials and actual work justify?
To avoid inflated prices, ask for itemized quotes detailing labor, travel fees, and materials. For context, a basic DIY 36-inch by 84-inch fiberglass screen repair kit costs $10 to $11, while a pet-resistant kit costs $24 to $25. Knowing these baseline material costs helps you evaluate if a contractor's labor markup is reasonable.
Should the contractor inspect the door track and frame as well as replace the mesh, so an underlying problem is not missed?
Yes. A professional contractor should always inspect the frame and track. If the frame is bent or the track is damaged, simply replacing the mesh will not solve your operational issues. In those cases, you will need a full screen replacement with a new frame, which typically costs $75 to $300.
How can I tell whether a screen contractor is reliable and does clean, professional work?
Reliable contractors follow a precise, clean process. They will remove the screen to work on a flat surface, pry out the old spline with a flathead screwdriver, measure the channel, lay new mesh with a half-inch overlap, and roll it taut with a spline roller. Finally, they trim the excess cleanly without cutting the spline.
