Can you repair a pool cage without rescreening the whole enclosure?

Yes. When posts are plumb and only certain panels failed, Chris replaces those sections. Full rescreens are recommended when mesh is uniformly brittle.

What does pool cage repair cost in Tampa Bay?

Partial panel repairs often run $175–$750 depending on count and ladder height. Every completed visit has a $150 minimum job charge.

Do you fix pool cage doors that will not latch?

Yes. Door misalignment, worn hinges, and popped spline are common repair items separate from roof panels.

Pool Cage Repair — Tampa Bay, FL

Torn panels, loose spline, and doors that drag — Chris Westcott fixes what failed and tells you when a full rescreen makes more sense.

Repair means fixing the failure — not selling a whole cage refresh

Most pool cage repair calls are not catastrophic: a dog pushed through the door mesh, a storm shredded the top horizontal row, or oxidation let one wall tear in a straight line. The Screen Team LLC starts every job by checking the aluminum — plumb posts, solid footings, straight headers. If the structure is sound, Chris replaces only the panels that failed. If the frame is bent or mesh is chalky everywhere, he says that plainly before quoting a full rescreen.

Call or text (727) 386-6562 with wide shots and close-ups of each tear. Many Tampa Bay repairs are ballparked from photos.

Common pool cage failures we fix

Roof horizontals torn — wind lifts the top row; see also storm repairs
Door spline blown out — mesh pops free on the hinge side after years of traffic
Sagging lower panels — weight and UV slacken mesh near the pool deck
Pet punctures — upgrade paths on pet-resistant mesh
Corroded screen beads — Chris reseats spline instead of masking brittle mesh

Repair vs rescreen: If three walls look gray and brittle, patching panel four wastes money when panel five fails next month. Chris explains that tradeoff on the phone — no pressure toward a bigger job than you need.
