The patio sliding door screen is usually the largest screen in your home — and the one that fails first. It gets opened dozens of times a day, the track fills with grit, and pets and kids lean on the mesh until it sags and tears.
Signs it's time to replace
- The mesh has tears, holes, or a permanent sag.
- The screen won't stay on its track, or jumps off when you slide it.
- The frame is bent or the wheels are worn and won't roll smoothly.
- You're upgrading from standard grey mesh to pet-resistant metal mesh.
Two mesh options
Standard grey mesh — the economical choice. Good airflow, good visibility, fine enough to stop most insects. Ideal if you don't have pets.
Metal mesh — dramatically more durable. Resists pet claws, won't sag over time, and lasts years longer. We recommend it for any home with cats or dogs near the patio door.
What it costs in BC
Professional re-screening of your existing patio sliding door screen starts at $120 with standard grey mesh, and $180 with durable metal mesh. That includes removing the old mesh, re-rolling the new mesh into your existing frame, and reseating it on its track.
If your frame is bent beyond repair, we'll build a new screen to your door's exact measurements.
