Start with the right question
Fresh screen is not always the whole job.
Mesh, lower-panel protection, cable hardware, doors, roof type, and base conditions can all change the real next step.

Repair, rescreen, and build choices
Screen enclosure planning guides
Plain answers before you book the enclosure visit.
Most homeowners do not need a polished sales pitch first. They need to know whether the job is a rescreen, repair, rebuild, lanai screen-in, new enclosure, or owner-review situation. These guides keep the decision practical before you ask for a quote.
The online estimate can help with a rough range. Final scope still depends on site conditions, measurements, and our review.
Rescreening or repair
When the frame still has useful life, but screen, hardware, or a specific area needs attention.
Simple screen-in or bigger build
When a patio or lanai might be screen walls under an existing roof, or might need a new enclosure plan.
DIY guess or professional review
When loose hardware, base conditions, or roof details make the project too site-specific for a simple answer.

Each guide is written to help a homeowner choose the next step without pretending the website can replace an actual site review.
Mesh choice
18/14 vs 20/20 screen
Compare standard screen and tighter no-see-um mesh for airflow, view, insects, and normal enclosure use.

Pets and lower panels
Pet screen, kick plates, and stronger panel choices
Sort out where stronger screen, kick plates, chair rail, or door hardware can help instead of upgrading everything by default.

Hardware review
Cables, tie-downs, anchors, and bracing hardware
Learn what to look for before treating a screen repair like a screen-only job. Hardware concerns should be reviewed before new screen goes in.

Lanai planning
Screened patios and lanais

View new enclosure page- You want a rough range before deciding whether to book the visit.
- You can answer the basic questions about size, wall count, roof coverage, or opening count.
- The job appears to be a normal rescreen, repair, rebuild, new enclosure, lanai screen-in, or rolldown opening.
- The frame, roof tie-in, base, anchors, or hardware condition is unclear.
- You are deciding between repair, rebuild, covered roof, or a new enclosure.
- You need someone to look at the actual site before trusting any range.
Next step
Use the guides to choose the path, then start the range or request review.
That keeps the first conversation grounded in what the enclosure actually needs.
