What changes the range
The size of the rescreen, the mesh choice, and whether the old hardware is being replaced.
Those are usually the biggest pricing changes on St. Augustine rescreening jobs.

St. Augustine rescreening
Pool enclosure rescreening in St. Augustine when the structure still has good life left.
For a St. Augustine pool cage, start with the screen that needs work. The rough-range tool helps compare mesh and hardware when one or more whole walls need new screen; it can include roof screen with that wall work. If the walls look usable and only the roof is worn, request an on-site quote. A few torn panels can go straight to a repair quote.
Only a few torn panels? Request a screen repair quote without measuring whole sides. Use the rough range for a whole side or more. If the frame has problems too, ask us to review the scope on site.
Full or partial rescreens
Some St. Augustine enclosures need a full refresh. Others only need certain walls or the roof redone.
18/14 or 20/20 mesh
The rough-range tool lets you compare standard screen against a tighter bug screen before you decide.
Fasteners and tapcons
If the old hardware is being replaced with the screen, that should be part of the number from the start.
What St. Augustine rescreens usually include
The decisions that usually matter before pricing
For a 20-by-30-foot pool cage with four 8-foot walls and a screen roof, our rough estimator shows about $2,955 with Phifer 18/14 mesh or about $3,235 with 20/20. This is an example, not a St. Augustine job quote. It excludes fastener replacement and other repairs.
For whole-wall work, enter the walls and any roof screen included. For roof-only work, request an on-site quote instead. Before comparing bids, use the written-scope checklist to check mesh, hardware and any excluded work. The final quote needs a site visit.
What parts of the enclosure are being redone
Some jobs are walls only. Others also include the roof. It is better to price the actual scope than guess from a simple overall size.
Which screen fits the job better
Phifer 18/14 is a starting choice for most everyday insects. If smaller flying insects are the problem, consider 20/20 no-see-um screen. Compare the two screen types before choosing a whole-side rescreen.
Whether to replace the old hardware too
If the old fasteners and tapcons are being changed with the screen, the estimate should reflect that up front.
- The enclosure still feels worth keeping.
- The biggest issue is worn, torn, or dated screen.
- You want to compare options before committing to the visit.
- You want to price fresh mesh without turning it into a larger project than it needs to be.
- If the structure is loose, heavily worn, or broadly failing, fresh screen may not be the right answer.
- If the layout or roof is changing, the job is already moving beyond straight rescreening.
- If you are unsure whether the enclosure still makes sense to keep, compare rebuilds before settling on the wrong scope.

Keep the layout if the frame is sound
When an enclosure like this has a sound frame, worn mesh can be replaced without changing the layout.

Separate roof and wall scope
On bigger pool cages, ask whether the roof is part of the rescreen along with the walls.
FAQ
Questions St. Augustine homeowners usually ask first about rescreening
Should I start with the rough-range tool first?
Use it when a whole side or more needs new screen. If you only have a few torn panels, request a repair quote instead of measuring whole sides.
Can I include the roof screen in the rough range?
Yes, when screened walls are part of the job too. The tool's screen-roof choice includes wall screen. If the roof alone needs new mesh, ask for a roof-only quote so we can check the surrounding screen, frame and hardware before deciding what stays.
What if I am not sure whether the job is a rescreen or a rebuild?
If the enclosure may be beyond a clean rescreen, look at rebuilds before spending time pricing the wrong fix.
Next step
Choose the next step by how much screen needs work.
For whole-side screen work in St. Augustine, start with the rough range. For only a few torn panels, request a repair quote. If the frame may need work, ask for an on-site review.
