Looking for someone in the Lakewood area who is mobile for screen repair. I've got two windows with damage from hail and the HOA is up my ass.

Screen material and a pizza cutter can get you brand new screens.

Yeah, this is a good DIY project. However a guy I work with asked me one time, "How much is your time worth?" If it is more than it would be to hire someone, I totally understand you wanting to hire someone. If that is the case I am sure you can find an unemployed member here to repair the screens for you if you throw them a couple bucks.


Just my .02

that.

I redid a substantial screened in porch at our FL home in less time than it would have taken for a screen company to drive out and do it.

Any of the members with window companies would likely be setup for it.

If its a standard screen it can be done from a tailgate. Depot has a cut to length kit

Never thought about DIY. One I could probably do with a kit but the other frame is pretty bent up. Will have to hit the depot this weekend and see what's up.

A&A Trading Post (Ace Hardware) on Broadway has a screen repair guy. Just drop it off and pick it up later.

Same goes for The Big Tool Box on Holly in Centennial. They do screens.

Well I was able to swing this one myself. Bought new frames and fit to size and install.

less than an hour for both. Time well spent instead of money.
