Which Window Screen Repair & Re-screening Does Eldorado Screens Offer

Window Screen Repair & Re-screening

Your windows should let in air, not bugs. When a window screen tears, bends, or pops out of its frame, even a small gap becomes an open door for insects, pollen, and ash.
We fix all types of window screen problems. This includes torn mesh, bent aluminum frames, broken corners, and screens that no longer fit snugly in the track.
Next, if your mesh is beyond patching, we re-screen the frame on the spot. We carry fiberglass mesh, aluminum mesh, solar mesh, and pet-proof mesh in our van. You pick the right material. We install it while you wait.
Also, we cut custom-sized window screens for older homes in Historic Downtown Placerville. Many older houses have odd window sizes that standard screens do not fit. We measure and cut on-site, so you get a perfect fit every time.

Services include:

  • Window screen frame repair and straightening
  • Torn mesh patch or full mesh replacement
  • Window screen re-screening (fiberglass, aluminum, solar, pet-proof)
  • Custom-cut screens for non-standard window sizes
  • Pet-resistant heavy-duty screen upgrade
  • Solar mesh installation to cut glare and heat
  • Charcoal and standard mesh replacement

Door Screen Repair & Re-screening

A broken screen door is one of the most common calls we get in Placerville. It is also one of the most annoying problems in a home. The door sticks. It jumps the track. The latch stops closing. Or the mesh tears from pet claws or years of use.
We repair sliding screen doors, hinged screen doors, and security screen doors. Most door repairs take 30 to 45 minutes.
This means that you do not need to leave your screen door broken for weeks waiting on a part or a handyman who may not show up. We carry rollers, tracks, latches, handles, and mesh with us. One visit usually takes care of everything.
Next, if your door mesh is shredded or stiff, we re-screen the door on-site. We push out the old spline, stretch in fresh mesh, and press the spline back in. The door looks and works like new.

Services include:

  • Sliding screen door repair and re-tracking
  • Screen door roller and track replacement
  • Hinged screen door repair (wood and metal)
  • Screen door mesh replacement and re-screening
  • Screen door handle and latch repair
  • Security screen door re-screening with heavy-gauge mesh
  • Pet door and pet flap screen repair

Patio & Porch Screen Enclosure Repair

Patio enclosures and screen porches are big investments. When panels tear, frames bend, or spline pops loose, the whole enclosure starts to fail. Bugs get in. Ash drifts in during fire season. The space becomes uncomfortable.
We repair and re-screen patio enclosures, sunrooms, screen porches, and deck panels throughout El Dorado County.
Also, if you have a pool cage or a lanai-style enclosure, we handle those too. Pool enclosure screens take a lot of weather abuse. We use heavy-duty mesh for these jobs so the repair lasts longer.
Next, we can upgrade your patio mesh while we are there. Switching to no-see-um ultra-fine mesh is a popular choice for homes near Diamond Springs and Shingle Springs, where tiny insects are a problem during warm months.

Services include:

  • Patio screen panel replacement
  • Screen porch re-screening
  • Screen room frame repair
  • Spline and channel replacement
  • Pool cage screen repair
  • Sunroom screen panel upgrade
  • No-see-um ultra-fine mesh installation
  • Deck and balcony screen panel repair

RV, Camper & Specialty Screen Repair

Placerville sits right on the route to Lake Tahoe and the Sierra Nevada. A lot of RV owners, cabin owners, and campers pass through or stay nearby in Camino, Apple Hill, and Pollock Pines. RV window and door screens take a hard beating on the road.
We repair RV window screens and door screens. We also cut custom replacement screens for campers, travel trailers, and motorhomes. Standard store-bought screens often do not fit RV openings correctly. We measure and cut the exact size you need.
Also, we repair fireplace screens and spark guard mesh for homes that heat with wood during Placerville winters. A damaged spark screen is a fire hazard. We treat these jobs as urgent.
Next, we also fix garage screen doors and retractable garage screen panels. These are easy to overlook until they stop working. We carry the parts to fix most brands on the first visit.

Services include:

  • RV and camper window screen repair
  • RV door screen replacement
  • Custom-fabricated screens for non-standard openings
  • Fireplace spark guard screen repair
  • Garage retractable screen door repair

Also, landlords and property managers in Cameron Park and Shingle Springs use us to handle multi-unit screen replacements between tenants. We can schedule a route day for rental properties with multiple units so everything gets done in one visit.
Next, if you have an urgent situation: a torn screen before a home inspection, or a broken door the night before a vacation rental check-in, call us. We offer same-day screen repair when our schedule allows.

Services include:

  • Same-day emergency screen repair
  • Mobile van service across Placerville and El Dorado County
  • Multi-unit landlord screen replacement routes

Why Homeowners in Placerville Call Us First

We come to you.

No hauling screens across town. No waiting at a shop. We bring everything to your front door.

We know this area.

We have worked in homes across Placerville, Diamond Springs, Cameron Park, and the Apple Hill corridor. We understand what foothill homes deal with seasonally and we stock materials that hold up to it.

We carry all common mesh types.

Fiberglass, aluminum, pet-proof, solar, no-see-um, pollen-block, and ember-resistant all on the van. You pick what fits your home and your budget.

Most jobs take under one hour.

We do not book you out weeks in advance for a simple screen fix. Most repairs and re-screens are done the same day you call.

Screen Mesh Upgrade & Material Options

Not all screen mesh is the same. When we re-screen your window, door, or patio, you can choose the mesh that fits your situation. Here is what we carry and who each type works best for.

01

Fiberglass Mesh This is the standard option. It is flexible, rust-proof, and works well for most windows and doors. It is the most budget-friendly choice.

02

Aluminum Mesh Aluminum is stiffer and holds its shape better than fiberglass. It works well for larger screen panels or areas with more wind exposure.

03

Pet-Proof Heavy-Duty Mesh This is the right choice if you have dogs or cats that scratch or push against screens. Pet-proof mesh is about seven times stronger than standard fiberglass. It resists punctures and tears from claws much longer than regular mesh.

04

Solar / Sun-Control Mesh Solar mesh blocks UV rays and reduces heat coming through your windows. Homes in Placerville that face west or south deal with intense afternoon sun in summer. This mesh lowers indoor temperatures and cuts glare.

05

No-See-Um Ultra-Fine Mesh This is a 20×20 mesh meaning the weave is much tighter than standard screen. It keeps out tiny insects that slip through regular mesh. Homes near Diamond Springs and Camino see a lot of small flying insects during warm months. This upgrade solves that problem.

06

Pollen-Blocking Screen Mesh Apple Hill and Camino are known for heavy pine pollen in spring. Pollen-blocking mesh filters out fine particles while still letting air through. This is a good choice for anyone in the household who deals with seasonal allergies.

07

Ember-Resistant / Fire Screen Mesh El Dorado County is in a high fire-risk zone. During wildfire season, embers travel through the air and can enter homes through damaged or standard screens. Ember-resistant mesh, like Pyro-Guard, is built to stop or slow ember entry.

Frequently Asked Questions
