Fresh mesh clamped by new spline under even tension in a screen door frame
Tension Is the Craft
Mesh & Tension

A Screen Door Is Only as Good as Its Spline Tension

Mesh holds flat because a rubber spline clamps it into the frame channel under even, corner-to-corner tension. Sun hardens the spline; it shrinks and lets go a little; the mesh bellies, sags or flaps. Pressing it flat lasts an afternoon — the real fix is fresh mesh and fresh spline set at even tension on all four rails. That's the $250 rescreen, and it comes back tighter than the door was sold.

  • Bulging or sagging mesh — tension gone, not torn

  • Rescreen with new mesh + spline — $250 per door

  • Rollers and latch checked in the same visit

  • Pet-resistant mesh for the dog-nose doors

Frames & Tracks

Bent Frames and Jumping Sliders Earn a New Door — Built to Size

Mesh in a racked or cracked frame ripples again by fall, and a slider panel that's jumped its track once too often is usually bent. Those earn an honest 'replace': a new screen door built to your opening for $475, fitted, adjusted and gliding. Between the two verdicts sits our written recommendation — rescreen or replace, both numbers visible, your call.

  • New screen doors — $475, made to the opening

  • Sliding panels re-fitted to glide in their track

  • Hinged porch doors hung to close flush

  • Window screens ride along — $100 rescreen, $150 new

Eugene fabricated both screens and new half double-pane windows for my home. He was professional, dedicated, and experienced. He went above and beyond to ensure the job was done right and in a timely manner. I would highly recommend WowFix for work that meets all expectations!

I had a fantastic experience with WowFix. They repaired my existing windows by cutting out rotted sashes, fashioning new ones on-site, and splicing them in. They look and work absolutely good as new!

WowFix is a great company for repairs on doors and windows. I had two rotten double-door frames that they rebuilt. They communicate well and the pricing was fair.

Door Screens — FAQ

Probably neither — just untensioned. The spline has hardened and released its clamp, so the mesh billows. A rescreen replaces mesh and spline together and resets corner-to-corner tension; the sail act ends there.
Before We Arrive

How to Prepare for Your WowFix Door Repair Visit

  1. 1

    Photograph the door and the problem spot

    Take one photo of the whole door and a close-up of the trouble area — the track, the handle, the glass, or the soft wood at the bottom. It lets us quote faster and bring the right parts.

  2. 2

    Note what the door is doing wrong

    Jot down the symptom — grinds or sticks on the track, won't lock or latch, drafts around the edges, fog or cracks in the glass, soft flaking wood at the bottom. It tells us whether it's hardware, a glass-only swap (from $198), or wood work.

  3. 3

    Clear the doorway and a few feet on each side

    Move mats, planters and furniture back from both sides of the door — most door work happens from inside and outside at once, and a clear opening keeps the visit quick.

  4. 4

    Find any brand sticker or paperwork

    Door brands hide their stickers on the edge or hinge side. If you spot one — or still have install paperwork — set it aside. Not required, but it helps us match rollers, locks and glass on the first trip.

  5. 5

    Make sure we can reach the outside of the door

    Unlock gates, secure pets, and clear the deck or patio path. With access to both faces of the door, nearly every repair finishes in a single visit.
