Pool Screen Repair in Jacksonville, FL

This service is centered on the screen panels themselves: removing old, torn, or discolored mesh, re-cutting and stretching new mesh across the panel frame, and rolling in new spline to lock it into the channel. We also address loose or popped spline on panels where the screen is otherwise fine but has come loose from vibration or age.

If a panel has ballooned outward from wind pressure or sagged from repeated rain pooling on it, re-tensioning during the re-screen usually resolves it, provided the panel frame itself isn't bent.

Watch for small holes near the bottom of panels (common entry points for lizards and frogs), screen that looks faded, chalky, or brittle to the touch, visible sagging or bagging in panels after rain, and debris accumulating in the pool faster than it used to. Torn screen near doors is especially common since that's the highest-traffic area of any pool cage.

Standard 18x14 fiberglass mesh is the typical choice for pool screen and holds up well for the price. Many Jacksonville homeowners near the coast or in areas with heavy no-see-um activity upgrade to 20x20 no-see-um mesh around the pool specifically, since that's where bugs matter most in the evening. Pet screen is a durable, tear-resistant option for households with dogs that like to lean or scratch at lower panels near the pool deck. Solar or privacy mesh is less common on pool panels since it reduces the view of the water, but some homeowners use it on side panels facing a neighbor's yard.

We schedule around Jacksonville's weather patterns where possible, avoiding days with heavy rain that make it hard to get a clean, tight re-screen, and being mindful of pollen season in the spring when fresh screen can get coated with pollen within days if application timing isn't considered. Hurricane season prep is also common - homeowners often get panels re-screened proactively before storm season rather than dealing with storm-driven tears afterward.
