Austin: Is Your Back Porch Screened & Ready?


Screens are a necessity in Austin, we simply can't open our windows to enjoy the beautiful weather without them, and once they are torn or ripped troublesome insects seem to find their way in.

Below is an example of a custom, Austin, re-screen project for an older porch. Re-screening is available for almost any window or porch project.

About this Custom Austin Porch Re-Screen

This project is a special case because this old 70's era back porch in Austin is split into varying sized 'windows', requiring a custom build solution.

Note the lighter colored wood surrounding each screen in this in progress image of the porch re-screen above.

These lighter colored wood splines are placed on either side of the screening material to hold it into each window. Later, the entire porch was repainted. Just visible to the left of the porch is the screen door which also has a new insect screen.
Repair a Torn Screen

For this project we used standard aluminum screening material.

Solar screens are also another popular option in Austin. Solar screens make a great choice when re-screening because they also provide shade.

In either case, whether it is solar screens or standard screens, each protect from bothersome insects and debris.

Solar Screens Austin Example Density Combinations

Solar screen installations combine solar screen densities



Special windows like the high arched windows pictured at right or the round window below it, are hard to drape, and look better open, yet may admit too much light causing overheating and glare.

Arched, round and other specialty windows admitting too much light, glare, and causing solar heating are a problem for many homes in Austin.


Combining solar screen densities doesn't affect esthetics

Install denser solar screens on specialty windows and  lower density solar screens on the viewing  windows.

Combining densities, even on windows sitting right next to each other is possible with solar screens. Solar screen combinations allows homeowners to filter light from specialty windows without sacrificing esthetics.
