Pool screen repair

Nearly every pool cage call is one of three things: a panel torn by wind or a branch, a door that has dropped off its rollers, or spline working out of the channel.

One panel or the whole cage

If the rest of the mesh is still tight and dark, replacing the damaged panel is the sensible repair and it is usually one visit. If the screening tears under a thumb, patching a panel buys a few months and the next one goes soon after. A crew will tell you which you have, and you are free to get a second opinion before spending anything.

The door is its own job

Cage doors take more abuse than any panel. Rollers wear, the frame racks out of square and the latch stops catching. That is often fixable without touching the rest of the enclosure.
