If you've searched for window screen repair costs online, you've mostly seen national-average ranges from HomeAdvisor and Angi that are wide enough to be useless ("$15 to $300"). Here's what it actually costs in Delaware in 2026, based on what Ashley Lauren quotes day-to-day.
Single Screen Repair
For a single window screen - rebuild the mesh in the existing aluminum frame, fix the corner clips, reinstall on site:
- Standard fiberglass mesh: $30–$45
- Charcoal aluminum mesh: $40–$55
- BetterVue high-clarity mesh: $50–$65
- PetScreen pet-resistant mesh: $50–$70
- TuffScreen heavy-duty mesh: $55–$75
- SunTex solar mesh: $60–$85
These prices assume the aluminum frame itself is reusable. If the frame is bent, corroded, or missing corners, you're looking at a full screen build.
Full Screen Build (New Frame + New Mesh)
- Small windows (under 4 sq ft): $50–$75
- Standard windows (4-8 sq ft): $65–$90
- Large windows / patio sliders (8-15 sq ft): $90–$140
- Oversized windows / custom shapes: quoted on site
Mesh upgrade pricing (PetScreen, SunTex, etc.) adds $15–$25 on top of these base prices.
Whole-House Jobs
When you're doing 8+ screens in one visit, per-screen pricing drops:
- 8-12 screens: roughly $30–$40 per screen for standard rebuild
- 13-20 screens: roughly $25–$35 per screen
- 20+ screens: custom quote - usually best deal per screen
A typical Delaware home with 10-12 window screens runs $300–$450 for a full standard-mesh rebuild.
Screen Door Repair vs Replacement
- Re-screen an existing sliding patio door: $55–$85
- Replace sliding door rollers: $40–$60 (parts + labor)
- Re-screen a swinging screen door: $50–$75
- Replace a swinging screen door (new door): $200–$450 depending on style
- Install a Mirage retractable screen door: $400–$800 installed
What Affects the Price
Six things move the number: mesh type, frame size, frame condition, quantity, location, custom finishes.
