Insect Screens
Solar Screens
Insect screens are the most common screen found. They feature a light weight mesh tightly fitted in a aluminum frame and generally only cover the section of your window that open to let air in or out. Their standard design makes them easy for us to produce and repair, reducing lead time and cost. The expected time to completion for an order of insect screens is 7- 14 days. New insect screens can improve curbside appeal and make your house and windows pop!
Solar screens reduce you electric bill in warm months by reflecting the sun’s heat from your windows and dispensing the absorbed heat outside of your window, leading to a cooler house. They feature a heavy mesh with screen mesh technology that is able to block out up 90% of the suns rays! Allowing you to see outside while preventing the sun from heating your interior. Solar screens can reduce your cooling bill by up to 30%, keeping your home cooler during the hottest months.
