Tiny Biting Insects
No-see-ums and other small pests that pass through ordinary mesh.
Beyond Standard Mesh
Some spaces need more than standard screen. We help you choose and install mesh suited to tiny insects, pets, strong sun or privacy.
Specialty screen service covers screening jobs that call for something beyond standard mesh, such as finer no-see-um screen, heavier pet-resistant screen, or privacy and solar-style screens, as well as unusual openings or mixed-material projects. Re-Screening Pro provides specialty screen service across Sarasota County, including Sarasota and Venice. It starts with an on-site assessment, and you can request a free quote through the form on this page.
Specialty Screen Service
Standard fiberglass mesh works well in many settings, but it is not the answer for every home. Tiny biting insects can slip through ordinary mesh, dogs can push through it, and a west-facing patio can become uncomfortably bright in the afternoon.
Specialty screen service matches the material to the problem. Instead of replacing torn mesh with the same thing that failed, we look at why it failed and what would hold up better.

Re-Screening Pro
Each specialty mesh has tradeoffs in airflow, visibility, durability and appearance. Part of our job is explaining those tradeoffs plainly so you can choose with confidence.
Exact products and options are discussed during the assessment, based on where the screen will go and how the space is used.
What we look for
No-see-ums and other small pests that pass through ordinary mesh.
Dogs and cats that tear or stretch standard lower panels.
Glare and heat that make a patio or lanai hard to enjoy.
Outdoor spaces that feel exposed to neighbors or passersby.
Spaces that need different screen types on different sections.
Odd-shaped or custom areas that need extra attention to fit.

Heavier and finer screens behave differently from standard fiberglass. Thicker mesh may need a different spline size to seat properly, and tension has to be set with the material in mind so the frame is not strained.
We account for those differences during installation, check frame condition first, and finish every edge cleanly so the specialty screen looks as good as it performs.
Why it is worth fixing early
Screen damage rarely stays the same size. Here is how a little tear usually grows.
A pinhole, a popped spline or a snag from a branch or pet claw.
Every breeze and summer storm pulls on the loose edge.
The tear runs, the mesh sags and the panel starts to flap.
Now insects, leaves and fronds come right through.
Catching damage early often means a simpler fix, like one panel or a strip of spline, instead of a whole wall.
Our process
From the first look to the finished screen, you know what is happening and why.
We look at the space and talk through what is bothering you, whether that is insects, pets, sun or privacy.
We explain which mesh types fit the situation and the tradeoffs of each.
Frames are checked and prepped, then the chosen screen is installed with proper tension and spline.
We walk through the finished work with you and leave the area clean.

Questions
Finer mesh generally allows somewhat less airflow and visibility than standard screen because the openings are smaller. Whether that tradeoff is worthwhile depends on how much of a problem small insects are where you live.
Pet-resistant screen is heavier and built to stand up to more pressure than standard fiberglass mesh. It is commonly used on lower panels and doors where pets make contact.
Yes. Many homeowners use sturdier screen low, standard or solar-style screen higher up, or privacy screen only on the side facing a neighbor. We can plan that mix during the assessment.
In many cases it can, though heavier or thicker mesh may need a different spline size. We check the frames and channels during the assessment to confirm.
