Can one damaged area of a lanai screen be repaired?

Often, yes. When the damage is limited to one area and the rest of the screen is in good condition, a localized repair may make sense. It depends on the condition of the screen around the damaged area.

When does rescreening make more sense than repair?

It depends on the condition of the screen and how widespread the damage is. If wear or damage shows up across much of the lanai rather than in a few spots, rescreening may be worth discussing during your estimate.

Do you repair screen doors and door hardware?

Yes. LWR Screen Enclosures repairs screen enclosure doors and door hardware. Describe what the door is doing when you call, and we'll review it during your estimate.

Can I choose pet-resistant or privacy screen?

Yes. LWR offers pet-resistant screen and privacy screen. We can talk about whether either one makes sense for the areas being repaired.

What affects the cost of lanai screen repair?

Cost depends on the extent of the damage, how many areas need repair, whether a door or door hardware is involved and the type of screen you choose. Your written estimate will show what's included.

How soon can a repair be scheduled?

Scheduling depends on the work involved and current availability. Once you approve your estimate, we'll schedule the repair with you.

Is the estimate free?

Yes. Estimates are free, are normally completed on-site, and you receive a written estimate.

Lanai Screen Repair in Lakewood Ranch, FL

Q: Do I need an entirely new lanai enclosure?

Not usually for screen damage alone. If your lanai isn't screened yet, or you want an entirely new enclosure, our Lanai Enclosures service covers new builds.

Lanai screen repair for Lakewood Ranch homes

The lanai gets more daily use than any other part of your enclosure — doors opening and closing, pets running in and out, furniture moving around. When you have a torn lanai screen, loose screen or a screen door that needs attention, LWR Screen Enclosures can repair the damaged areas.

What wears out on a screened lanai

Lanai screen enclosures sit under the shelter of your roof, which protects them from some weather. But because the lanai is where everyone comes and goes, the damage tends to be different from what we see on pool cage roofs and high walls.

Lower panels torn by pets. Dogs and cats push, scratch and jump at the screen nearest the door.
Screen doors. Daily use wears on door screen and door hardware.
Impact damage. Furniture, grills, toys and yard equipment can puncture panels.
Loose or bulging screen. Screen can loosen or start pulling away along an edge.

Signs your lanai screen needs repair

Holes or tears, especially near doors and at pet height.
Screen pulling away from the frame along an edge.
A screen door that sticks, drags or won't close properly.
Insects finding their way onto the lanai.

Screen door and hardware repair

Screen doors are the most-used part of most lanais. LWR Screen Enclosures repairs screen enclosure doors and door hardware, including damaged door screen. Tell us what the door is doing and we'll review it during your estimate. Call 941-239-7650 to describe the problem.

Repair, rescreening or a new enclosure?

The right option depends on the condition of the screen and the extent of the damage. Isolated damage may suit a localized repair. If wear or damage shows up across much of the lanai, rescreening may be worth discussing. If your lanai isn't screened yet, or you want an entirely new enclosure, see Lanai Enclosures. For damage on a pool cage rather than a lanai, see Pool Screen Repair.

Screen options for pets and privacy

When screen is being repaired, it can be a good moment to consider the screen type. LWR offers pet-resistant screen for areas pets reach and privacy screen for areas where you'd like more privacy.

Storm-damaged lanai screen

Panels on exposed sides of the home can be torn or loosened in storms, and screen doors can be damaged too. If storm weather has damaged your lanai screen or screen door, call us to describe what you're seeing and arrange an estimate.
