What rescreening is, and when it makes sense
Rescreening means replacing the screen across an entire enclosure, or across larger sections such as all the walls or the full roof, instead of repairing one panel at a time. It is usually considered when the screening has aged throughout the enclosure rather than in one or two spots.
Complete rescreening replaces aging or damaged screening across the enclosure, creating a more consistent appearance and screen condition. Because all of the replaced areas are new at the same time, the screening matches in color and condition instead of mixing new panels with older mesh.
Signs a rescreen may make sense
Any of the following may suggest that rescreening is worth considering, especially when several appear together:
- Tears or holes in multiple panels, often on different walls.
- Screening that has faded, turned chalky or looks dull.
- Mesh that feels stiff or brittle and tears easily.
- Widespread sagging or loose screen, especially on the roof.
- Numerous older repairs that stand out against the screening around them.
Pool enclosure rescreening
Pool cage rescreening replaces aging or damaged screening across the pool enclosure. Rescreening generally involves removing existing screening from the areas being replaced and installing new screening and spline in the enclosure frame. Homeowners can rescreen a whole pool enclosure at once or focus on the walls or the roof.
The general condition of the enclosure can also be discussed during an estimate. If the aluminum frame, doors or other enclosure components need attention, that work is handled through our pool cage repair and restoration service.
Lanai rescreening
Screened lanais and patios can be rescreened too. When an outdoor room has aging screening on most of its walls, replacing the lanai screens throughout can give the space a consistent look and help reduce insects and outdoor debris entering the screened space. It is also a chance to revisit screening choices. Some homeowners add privacy screening on certain walls, which you can read about on our privacy screen installation page.
Pool cage painting alongside rescreening
If the pool cage frame is faded or chalky, homeowners may also consider pool cage painting as part of a broader enclosure project. Pairing painting with a rescreen can create a more uniform, refreshed appearance.
Not sure if you need a rescreen?
If only a limited number of panels are damaged, targeted pool screen repair may be appropriate. When screening is worn or damaged throughout larger portions of the enclosure, full rescreening may be worth considering. During a free estimate, the condition of the screening and enclosure can be reviewed and the available options discussed.
