Richardson Elite Patio Covers provides professional rescreening & screen repair in Richardson, TX for residential and commercial properties across the Telecom Corridor. Most rescreen calls in Richardson are not really about the screen. The mesh tore because the frame holding it stopped being square, and a fresh panel stretched into that same bent frame tears again inside a season. So we look at the frame first and quote the mesh second, which is the opposite order from the way the call usually comes in. Frames fail quietly; mesh fails visibly.
Aluminum screen frames from the 70s and 80s have a shallow spline groove that has work-hardened and spread open over decades of thermal cycling. The spline no longer grips, and the mesh walks out at a corner under nothing worse than its own tension. That is a frame replacement rather than a rescreen, and we say so even though it is the larger invoice.
The other pattern is a whole screen wall racked out of shape because the porch is tied to a house whose slab has lifted. You can read it in the door: the gap at the top of the strike side is wider than the gap at the bottom. Rescreening that wall spends money on a symptom while the cause carries quietly on underneath. Fix the footing or keep buying screen.
Where the frame is sound, rescreening is cheap work and we treat it that way. We rescreen in place wherever access allows, reuse the mesh specification already there unless something argues for changing it, and replace only the bays that need doing. Panels get cut to the roll width so that no bay ends up carrying a seam through its middle. A seam is a failure point waiting for a windy afternoon.
Dogs and mature trees do most of the routine damage on these lots. Heavier pet weave across the lower bays with 18x14 above is the sensible split, and where gnats are the complaint we drop 20x20 into the bays nearest the planting beds. The post oaks and pecans over these back yards fill a top track every fall, and that is usually what jams the door.
We also quote repair honestly against replacement. Where more than half the bays need work and the frames are the original sections, rebuilding the wall in new extrusions costs less across ten years than four separate service visits. Rescreening alone needs no permit. Altering the structure the screen hangs on does, and we take that paperwork on ourselves rather than leaving it with you. Both numbers go on the same page.
With 15+ years of experience, our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — screw-chase extruded aluminum framing, 18x14 fiberglass insect mesh, 20x20 no-see-um mesh, pet-resistant vinyl-coated polyester screen, drilled belled piers below the active clay zone, hot-dip galvanized post base standoffs — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Richardson and nearby communities including Plano, Garland, Sachse, Murphy.

Materials, equipment and how we do rescreening & screen repair
The difference between rescreening & screen repair that lasts and rescreening & screen repair that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with screw-chase extruded aluminum framing, 18x14 fiberglass insect mesh, 20x20 no-see-um mesh, pet-resistant vinyl-coated polyester screen, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Richardson job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of patio cover work in the Telecom Corridor means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
