A pool screen enclosure should fit tight, drain right, and stay square season after season. Durham Screens (serving since 2018) installs and repairs pool screen enclosure frames, screen panels, and doors in Durham, from small panel fixes to full re-screens and rebuilds.
We start by checking the slab, deck, or footer line for level, cracks, and drainage so the enclosure tracks true and does not rack under load. Layout includes plumb and square checks, anchor spacing, and door opening measurements, then we protect coping, pavers, and tile before any drilling. For repairs, we identify the failure point first, loose fasteners, bent members, torn mesh, or a shifted base, so the fix addresses the cause, not just the symptom.
North Carolina humidity, pollen, and wind-driven storms punish fasteners, screen spline, and door hardware, so we build for movement and long-term corrosion resistance. We commonly use aluminum framing with stainless-steel screws, new spline where needed, and properly tensioned mesh to reduce flutter, sagging, and premature tears. Finishing includes clean edges, tight corners, smooth door operation, and sealing gaps where insects and debris typically enter, especially at bottoms, returns, and transitions around equipment pads.
Homeowners and businesses choose us because we treat pool screen enclosure work like exterior construction, not a quick patch. You get a licensed and insured crew, clear scope, and a written estimate that specifies materials, mesh type, and hardware so you can compare apples to apples. We show up with the right tools and equipment, including rotary hammers for masonry fasteners, corrosion-resistant hardware, and screening tools for consistent spline seating and screen tension.
At completion we do a walkthrough with you, checking door swing and latch alignment, panel fit, and the small details that keep bugs out, like corner tightness and clean perimeter contact. You receive a final scope summary, care guidance for rinsing and cleaning, and recommendations for hinge, closer, and roller maintenance if applicable. If we found underlying issues, such as settling, damaged framing, or compromised anchors, we document them and outline next-step options so you can plan repairs before they become major rebuilds.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after reviewing the site and confirming materials, openings, and hardware needs.
Yes. Durham Screens is licensed and insured for screening work, and we can confirm details during scheduling.
In most cases, yes. We can typically match common mesh colors like charcoal or gray and coordinate frame components, spline, and hardware to blend with existing assemblies.
Small repairs can often be completed in a single visit. Larger rescreening and porch projects vary by scope, number of openings, and any needed frame or carpentry repairs.
Yes. We troubleshoot sagging doors, misaligned hinges, worn closers, latches, and sweeps, then repair or replace the hardware and rescreen as needed.
A pool screen enclosure is more than comfort, it protects your pool from leaves, mosquitoes, frogs, and wind-blown debris while helping keep the deck cleaner and safer. Durham Screens installs new enclosures, re-screens existing structures, and handles targeted repairs like torn panels, loose spline, failed fasteners, sagging roof sections, and sticking screen doors. Whether your enclosure is aluminum-framed or a mixed system with multiple door and panel types, we focus on fit, drainage, and durable fastening so it holds up through heat, humidity, and storms.
If your pool screen enclosure has rips or gaps, insects get in fast and small problems spread, a loose spline becomes a blown-out panel, and a misaligned door starts tearing mesh at the latch side. We inspect the frame for bent members, loose anchors, and out-of-square openings before we replace screen. For re-screens and panel work, we remove damaged mesh, clean the channels, install new spline, and tension the screen evenly so the finished surface stays flat without overstressing corners and door frames.
For installations and larger rebuilds, we verify base lines, plumb posts, and consistent spans before final fastening. We use hardware appropriate for the surface (masonry, concrete, or structural attachment points) and focus on the areas that fail first: bottom rails, roof-to-wall intersections, door openings, and high-wind corners. Where water can trap and accelerate corrosion, we recommend changes that improve drainage and airflow without leaving openings that invite pests.
