Our repairs
Repairs for every part of your enclosure
Gulf-coast sun, salt air and storms are hard on a screen enclosure. We fix what they wear out - cleanly, and when we say we will. Repairs only; we don't build new structures, so your screen job never sits behind a big install.
Pool Cage Restoration
Complete pool cage restoration combining re-screening, hardware replacement, frame re-tensioning, and door repair in a single visit. Ideal for Manatee and Sarasota County cages showing torn screens, sagging panels, corroded fasteners, or stiff doors.
Full Pool Cage Re-Screen
Replace every panel of worn, torn, or discolored screen mesh in your pool enclosure with fresh UV-rated material. A complete re-screen restores bug protection, airflow, and curb appeal in one visit for Manatee and Sarasota County homeowners.
Single Panel Re-Screen
One torn, sagging, or punctured screen panel replaced and matched to your existing cage. Fast, affordable, and done right the first time - restoring bug protection and curb appeal without replacing the whole enclosure.
Lanai / Patio Re-Screen
Torn, sagging, or bug-riddled lanai and patio screens replaced with fresh mesh, new spline, and tight, even tension - restoring your outdoor living space quickly and correctly.
Screen Door Repair
A screen door that drags, won't latch, or slams itself open is a daily frustration. We replace worn rollers, bent hinges, failed latches, and sluggish closers so your door opens smoothly and shuts securely every time.
Storm & Wind-Damage Repair
Blown-out screen panels, bent frame members, and collapsed pool cages get closed back up fast after a storm. We photograph all damage before work begins, so you have a clear record for insurance.
Spline Replacement & Re-Tensioning
Dried-out or shrunken spline lets screens ripple, sag, and pop out of their channels. We pull the old spline, re-seat the screen mesh under proper tension, and press in fresh spline so every panel sits flat and stays put.
No-See-Um Mesh Upgrade
Upgrade your pool cage or lanai screen to tight 20x20 no-see-um mesh and stop the tiniest biting insects cold. Ideal for Manatee and Sarasota County homes where standard screen lets the smallest biters through.
Why screens fail here
What a Gulf-coast enclosure goes through
A screen enclosure on the Suncoast lives a hard life. Knowing exactly how they wear out is how we repair them so the fix actually lasts.
Salt & humidity. Air this close to the Gulf is corrosive. It rusts screws and door hardware long before the screen itself gives out - which is why a "screen" problem is so often really a hardware problem.
UV & heat. Florida sun bakes screen mesh until it turns brittle and gray. Old screen tears at a touch, so we replace it rather than patch a panel that's about to fail somewhere else.
Storm season. June through November, wind and flying debris punch out panels. We keep storm slots open and turn these around fast.
No-see-ums. The standard mesh on most cages is too open to stop the Suncoast's tiniest biters. If they're getting in, the screen upgrade is the real fix - not more bug spray.
Repair or replace? We'll tell you straight
Not every tear means a whole new screen, and not every sagging cage is worth patching one more time. Because we only do repairs, we have no reason to push you toward the bigger job - so you get an honest read. As a rule of thumb, if the screen is still flexible and only a panel or two have failed, a targeted re-screen is the smart, affordable fix. When the mesh has gone gray and brittle across the whole enclosure - so a new panel would just sit next to five more about to tear - a full re-screen costs less in the long run than chasing it one panel at a time.
Hardware is its own call. A door that drags usually needs a roller, hinge or closer, not a new door; a frame that's working loose usually needs its corroded fasteners swapped for stainless, not replacing. We carry the common screen, spline, rollers and corrosion-resistant hardware on the truck, so most of these decisions get made - and fixed - in the same visit. Whatever we recommend, you'll see it written down with a flat price before any work starts.

Common questions
Screen repairs, answered straight
Do you re-screen one panel or the whole enclosure?
Both. We replace a single torn panel and match it to your existing mesh, or re-screen the entire pool cage or lanai when the screen has aged out everywhere. We'll tell you honestly which makes sense for yours.
What screen do you use - and can you keep no-see-ums out?
Standard 18×14 for most cages, tighter 20×20 no-see-um mesh where the tiny biters get through, and pet-resistant screen for dog and cat traffic areas. We match the mesh and color to the rest of your enclosure so a repair blends in.
Can you fix a sagging or stuck screen door?
Yes - screen doors are one of our most common jobs. We re-screen them, replace worn rollers, hinges, latches and closers, and re-square a door that's dropped so it swings and latches right again.
Do you replace rusted or corroded hardware?
We do. Gulf-coast salt air eats fasteners and brackets; we swap corroded hardware for screws and hardware that hold up here, so the repair lasts instead of failing again next season.
Do you handle storm damage and insurance documentation?
Yes. We prioritize storm calls, re-screen blown-out panels and re-secure frames, and photograph the damage and our work so you have clean documentation for an insurance claim.
Do you build new screen enclosures?
No - we're repair-only. We restore, re-screen and fix existing enclosures, cages, lanais and doors, which is exactly why your repair never sits behind a big new-construction build.
