Whole-cage and single-panel rescreens
Screen doesn't last forever on the Gulf Coast. UV, salt air, pollen, and the odd falling branch all take their toll, and eventually the mesh goes brittle, sags, or tears. If you're finding leaves in the pool, seeing daylight through the panels, or the screen crackles when you press on it, it's time to rescreen.
We handle it two ways depending on what you need:
- Single-panel and spot rescreens when just a few sections are torn, usually from a branch, a pet, or a stray ladder.
- Full pool cage rescreens when the whole enclosure is aging out at once, so every panel matches and you're set for years.
Screen options that fit Florida
We'll walk you through the right mesh for your cage: standard 18/14 fiberglass for everyday use, tighter no-see-um screen if the tiny bugs are getting through, and heavier pet-resistant or Florida Glass panels along the doors and kick areas where screens take the most abuse. Around Siesta Key and the water, we lean toward the more corrosion-resistant hardware.
How much does it cost to rescreen a pool cage in Sarasota?
Every cage is a little different, so we quote each one free, but here's an honest ballpark for the Sarasota area. A single torn panel is usually a small flat rate, often around $25 to $60 per panel depending on size and access. A full pool cage or screen enclosure rescreen typically runs from about $1,000 to $3,000, driven mostly by the size of the enclosure and the screen you choose — standard fiberglass is the most affordable, while no-see-um mesh and pet-resistant screen cost a little more. Two-story cages and hard-to-reach panels add some labor. You'll get the exact number in writing before any work starts.
Fast, clean, and priced up front
Most rescreens in the Sarasota area are scheduled the same week, and full-cage jobs are typically done in a day or two. We protect your pool and deck, replace worn spline and fasteners as we go, and haul away the old screen so your lanai is cleaner than we found it. You get a clear written price at the free quote, and that's the price.
How long does a pool cage rescreen take?
A few panels can be done in a single visit. A full-cage rescreen is usually one to two days depending on the size and height of the enclosure.
Can you just do the panels that are torn?
Absolutely. If only a few sections are damaged we'll rescreen just those and match them to the rest so it blends in.
Will new screen keep the no-see-ums out?
Standard screen stops most bugs, but if the tiny ones are getting through we can install no-see-um mesh, which has a tighter weave made for exactly that.
