Turn an open porch into a comfortable screen porch that blocks bugs, pollen, and windblown debris without losing the view. Charlotte Screens, serving since 2019, installs new screen porch enclosures and repairs torn mesh, loose frames, and failing doors with clean, code-aware workmanship.
A long-lasting screen porch starts with the base. We inspect the slab, decking, and existing posts for rot, movement, and water staining, then verify plumb and level so frames do not rack or bind. For new enclosures, we plan panel sizes, door swings, and attachment points, then build sturdy framing with pressure-treated lumber or aluminum systems as appropriate. Every opening gets measured precisely so screen panels fit tight, corners stay square, and the structure can handle daily use.
Local conditions matter on a screen porch in Charlotte, especially humidity, sun exposure, and heavy seasonal pollen. We recommend mesh and finishes that hold up, such as fiberglass insect screen for value, aluminum mesh for stiffness, or pet-resistant mesh for high-traffic doors and lower panels. Fasteners and hardware are selected for corrosion resistance, and we detail edges with spline and screen track to prevent pull-outs and waviness. If the porch needs a cleaner look, we add kick plates, mid-rails, and trim wraps that protect vulnerable areas and keep lines straight.
Charlotte customers choose us because we treat screen porch work like finish carpentry, not a patch job. You get a free written estimate, clear scope, and straightforward options for mesh type, frame material, and door hardware so you can control budget and durability. Our crews are licensed and insured, show up with the right tools (levels, miter saws, screen roller tools, and fastening systems), and focus on clean edges, tight screen tension, and smooth door operation. We also troubleshoot common failures like sagging headers, loose screen track, wood rot at bottoms, and out-of-square openings that cause repeat tears.
Before we call a screen porch done, we walk the project with you and check the details that matter in real life. We verify door alignment, latch engagement, and consistent reveal gaps, then look for screen ripples, sharp edges, and places insects can slip through at corners and sill lines. You receive the final scope in writing, care guidance for cleaning and pollen season, and repair recommendations if we find underlying wood or moisture issues. The result is a screen porch enclosure that feels finished, breathes well, and stays serviceable for years.
We finish every screen porch project with a full closing walkthrough so you know exactly what was installed, adjusted, or replaced. We test all openings for smooth operation, confirm panels are secure, and point out any framing limitations in older porches that could affect long-term performance. You will have a free written estimate on file, a documented scope of work, and a clear plan for future upgrades like pet screen on lower sections or a new screen door package. That way your screen porch is not only comfortable today, it is easy to maintain and repair later.
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.
A well-built screen porch gives you outdoor airflow without mosquitoes, gnats, and seasonal debris, but it only works when the framing is square, the mesh is properly tensioned, and the attachment system is secure. Charlotte Screens installs new screen porch enclosures and handles repairs that homeowners and property managers see most often, including ripped screen, loose spline, bent frames, sagging openings, and screen doors that drag or will not latch. We start with measurements and a condition check, then recommend the right combination of frame, mesh, and hardware for the way you use the space.
If your screen porch is older, many problems trace back to the base and framing. Out-of-plumb posts, soft bottom rails, and out-of-square openings can cause screens to wrinkle, pull free, or tear at corners. We identify those root causes and correct them where practical, then rebuild panels to the right dimensions so they stay tight and look clean. For repair work, we can re-screen individual panels, replace damaged sections, and restore door operation without forcing a full rebuild when the structure is sound.
Material selection matters for comfort and durability. Fiberglass insect screen is a common choice for everyday use, aluminum mesh adds stiffness, and pet-resistant mesh helps protect lower panels and doors from claws and impacts. We also install durable door hardware like quality hinges, latches, and pneumatic closers, and we choose corrosion-resistant fasteners where exposure demands it. The goal is a screen porch that seals well, holds tension, and stays serviceable through humidity, sun, and frequent use.
To get started, request a free written estimate. We will review your porch layout, discuss how you want to use the space, and provide clear options for a new screen porch enclosure or targeted repairs that bring the porch back to comfortable, bug-free use.
