Rescreen Services - Tampa Bay, FL
Full and partial rescreens for pool cages, lanais, and porches — Chris Westcott removes worn mesh, checks the frame, and splines new screening tight. Based in New Port Richey, serving Pasco, Pinellas, and Hillsborough.
What a rescreen actually involves
Rescreening is not a cosmetic touch-up — it is a full replacement of the mesh and spline while your existing aluminum frame stays in place. Chris strips out brittle, oxidized, or torn screening, inspects the frame for bends or loose posts, and installs fresh material with proper tension so bugs stay out and the enclosure looks crisp again.
That matters in Tampa Bay because enclosures here fail on a predictable schedule: five to eight years of UV turns white mesh gray and brittle; one summer storm tears the weakest horizontal panel; pets pop lanai door spline in a single afternoon. A rescreen on a sound frame costs a fraction of rebuilding the structure.
Partial panels vs full enclosure rescreens
Chris quotes what the job needs — not what pads the invoice. One torn roof panel after a storm? Replace the panel. Three failed sections but the rest is tight? Patch those three. Uniform oxidation across every wall of the cage? Full rescreen. You hear the recommendation before booking, with pricing tied to scope.
- Partial repair — often $175–$250+ depending on panels and access
- Multi-panel storm work — typical $250–$750 range for localized damage
- Full pool cage rescreen — commonly $2,500–$6,500+ by size and height
- Mesh upgrades — pet-resistant, no-see-um, aluminum quoted separately
Mesh options Chris installs
Standard fiberglass suits most pool cages and lanais. Pet-resistant mesh handles dogs that charge screen doors. No-see-um screening filters smaller insects common near water and mangroves. Aluminum mesh is available where durability outweighs visibility. Chris recommends upgrades based on how you use the space, not a upsell script.

Our process
How Chris runs a rescreen job
From phone call to tight mesh — owner-direct from New Port Richey.
1. Scope by phone or photo
Describe enclosure type, city, and damage. Text wide shots plus close-ups of tears or oxidation — many Pasco and Pinellas jobs quote without a pre-visit.
2. Frame check on site
Chris verifies posts, headers, and door alignment before mesh goes up. Structural issues are quoted separately — never hidden inside a rescreen price.
3. Spline, tension, cleanup
Old material comes out, new mesh is rolled tight, spline seated correctly, and debris cleared. Most residential rescreens finish in one day.
Rescreens from NPR across three counties
Home base in New Port Richey means Pasco rescreens often schedule fastest. Pinellas routes cover Clearwater, Largo, St. Pete, Palm Harbor, and Seminole weekly. Hillsborough jobs — Tampa, Brandon border — are confirmed for travel when you call.
Popular bundled jobs: rescreen the pool cage and replace missing window screens in the same visit, or refresh a lanai while repairing gutter sections above the header. Mention both when you call.
