Window Rescreening in San Antonio, TX is one of the most common home-service jobs we quote in the area. Hot, dry summers and dust from the Hill Country wear out screens steadily — many homes need a rescreen every few years.
Texas combines heavy heat, sudden storms, and dust from every direction. Hill Country and West Texas get the worst sun damage; the Gulf Coast adds humidity and salt. That's why local screen pros stay busy — and why honest, upfront pricing matters.

Many Texas planned communities restrict screen door styles — neutral colors and standard mesh tend to get approved fastest.
What's the smarter call?
- 1Rescreening is the right call when the frame is straight, clean, and the corners aren't cracked.
- 2If the frame is damaged or corroded, build a new screen instead — the labor is similar and the result lasts longer.
- 3Take the chance to upgrade mesh (pet-resistant, solar, no-see-um) at the same time — labor is identical.
How rescreening works
A local screen pro will pop the screen out of the window, lay it flat, and pull the old spline and mesh out of the frame's groove. New mesh is rolled across the frame, then pressed into the groove with a spline tool — locking it tight on all four sides.
The mesh is trimmed flush and the screen is reinstalled. Most rescreens take 10–15 minutes per screen on-site.
What rescreening costs
Most rescreens cost $20 to $55 per screen. Specialty mesh adds $5–$25.
Whole-house rescreens are usually the cheapest way to refresh every screen at once and look uniform from the street.
Standard vs. upgraded mesh
Standard charcoal fiberglass is the default — clean, see-through, good for 5–10 years in most climates.
Solar mesh is the most popular upgrade in hot states — it blocks a large portion of solar heat.
Pet-resistant mesh is the right call if you've already torn a screen with a paw — it's noticeably tougher.
