Torn, loose, or sun-brittle screen mesh makes a porch or window hard to use and easy for insects to enter. Charlotte Screens has served Charlotte since 2019, replacing screen mesh on porch panels, windows, doors, and pool enclosures with clean, tight fits.
We start with a quick inspection of the frame, spline channel, corners, and fasteners so the new screen mesh seats correctly and stays tight. Old mesh and spline are removed, the groove is cleaned, and we check for bent aluminum, cracked vinyl, or loose screen frame screws before we re-screen. For most jobs we use a new spline sized to the channel and a spline roller to set even tension without warping the frame.
Local heat, UV, and pollen load can shorten the life of standard mesh, so we help you pick the right material for how you use the space. Options commonly include fiberglass 18x16 for general use, heavy-duty pet-resistant mesh for claws and traffic, and no-see-um 20x20 where tiny insects are an issue. We keep lines straight, avoid over-stretching, and trim cleanly so the finish looks crisp against existing rails, stops, and trim.
Customers choose us for straightforward recommendations, consistent workmanship, and a process that respects your home or business. We show up with the right tools, including spline rollers, miter snips, and fasteners, and we protect surrounding surfaces while we work. You get a free written estimate, clear material choices, and a crew that can handle anything from a single door panel to multi-bay porch screening repairs.
Before we wrap up, we do a walkthrough and test each panel for even tension, secure spline seating, and clean edges with no loose strands. We confirm doors close properly, verify there are no gaps at corners, and point out any frame issues that could affect future screen mesh performance. You get the removed material hauled off, a clean work area, and practical care tips so your new screen mesh lasts longer.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after an on-site measure and scope review.
Yes. Charlotte Screens is licensed and insured for screening work.
Small repairs can be completed quickly once materials are on hand, while larger porches and enclosures depend on panel count, door work, and any framing repairs. We give a schedule with your written estimate.
In most cases, yes. We identify the closest match for mesh type and color and will explain options if an exact match is not available.
Yes. We can replace torn mesh, damaged spline, bent rails, and screen door hardware, and we will note any framing issues that need correction to keep the repair from failing again.
If your screen mesh is ripped, sagging, pulling out of the spline channel, or turning brittle from sun exposure, replacement is usually faster and more cost-effective than living with constant bugs and debris. Charlotte Screens replaces screen mesh on porch and patio enclosures, screened-in porches, window screens, screen doors, and pool enclosure panels, matching the right mesh type to how you use the space. Our goal is a tight, flat screen that looks clean, holds tension, and seals the opening properly.
Screen mesh fails for a few predictable reasons: UV breakdown, wind and impact tears, pets, and old spline that shrinks or hardens. During replacement we remove the old mesh and spline, clean the groove, and check the frame for bends or loose corners that can cause the new mesh to loosen early. Then we set the new screen mesh evenly using a spline roller and fresh spline, keeping consistent tension so the frame stays square and the finish stays flat.
Choosing the right mesh matters. Standard fiberglass 18x16 is a solid everyday choice, while 20x20 no-see-um helps reduce tiny insects and drifting gnats in heavily shaded or damp areas. For doors and high-traffic openings, pet-resistant mesh stands up better to scratching and pushing. If you are not sure what you have now, we can match the look and discuss tradeoffs like airflow, visibility, and durability.
After installation we check for gaps, confirm the spline is fully seated, and make sure edges are trimmed clean with no fraying. If we spot related issues such as damaged frame corners, weak door closers, or loose latches that can stress the screen, we will point them out so you can plan the next step.
