Types of work
- Window flyscreens re-meshed or rebuilt
- Sliding patio screens: mesh, rollers, latches and tracks
- Hinged screen doors that sag or will not close
- Pet-resistant mesh when the frame can take the thicker weave
Common problems
A sliding screen that jumps the track
Worn rollers and a bent bottom rail are the usual cause. We clean the channel, replace rollers where parts exist, and tell you if the frame itself is spent.
Cat-clawed mesh in a sound aluminium frame
If the frame is square and the corners are tight, mesh-only replacement is enough: new mesh and spline in the existing frame. Pet-resistant mesh is an option if the frame can take it.

Around Melbourne's north
Inner-north homes in Thornbury, Northcote and Brunswick often have older window screens that tear or sag after years of sun. Newer houses around Epping tend to have wide sliding patio screens that take more wear from pets and kids. Demand rises in spring, so booking before the first hot week helps.
Mesh-only or a full screen repair?
If the aluminium frame is square and the rollers still run, mesh-only replacement is usually enough. When frames are bent, corners split or tracks jammed, we repair or rebuild the screen so the new mesh has something solid to sit in.
Window flyscreens and sliding screen doors
We re-mesh window screens, free sticky patio doors and reset latches so rooms can be ventilated without letting insects in.
Flyscreen repair FAQs
Common questions answered for your peace of mind.
Yes. If the frame is square and the corners are sound, we fit new mesh and spline in the existing frame. Damaged frames or rollers are quoted before any work starts.
