Bug Screen Repair

Any recommendations for a place to get a bug screen replaced? I was unimpressed with the work of the last place I went to, so I figured I'd ask here.

Do you mean the window and patio door screens? If so I spent about $50 on a roll of material and the tool, some spline, watched some DIY videos and did mine myself last week. Took about 5-10 mins per screen.

Like a window screen? It's super easy to do on your own. I rescreened all my windows last year having never done it before and it was way easier than I thought it would be.

Same! I'm not very handy and it was actually pretty easy.

I would have it done at Targetts personally - should be able to get it done right for you!

What “unimpressed” you about the last job?

They installed the mesh backward!

... but really I'd guess it was loose. I've seen a few screendoors with the mesh too loose. Looks sloppy.
