Ripped, torn, and rusted window or sliding door screens aren't just an eyesore. Damage to your screen allows bugs and other unwanted pests access into your home, as well. Don't delay getting your screens fixed or fully replaced! There are many benefits to having well-maintained window and sliding door screens, including:
Boosts Aesthetics •
Broken screens can be an eyesore, making it look like you don't take good care of your property. If you're going to be selling your home in the near future, tidy screens can make a big difference on prospective buyers. Fixing your screens can help to boost your curb appeal and the aesthetics from the inside of your home.
Keeps Windows Cleaner •
Keeping your door and window screens well-maintained can help keep the exterior glass cleaner, too! Dirt and debris tend to build-up on your glass and screens but a well-maintained screen can allow rainwater to clean your windows!
Prevents Water Damage •
Part of a screen's purpose is to deflect enough water so that there is no pooling at the base of your windows. Excessive water can damage your woodwork and windows, even causing mold to grow.
Reduces Heat Transfer •
Some screens have special coatings that can help insulate your home. While your glass panes do most of the work preventing heat transfer, an extra layer of protection never hurt!
Pest Prevention •
If you enjoy keeping your windows open as soon as summertime hits, you'll have to rely on your screen to keep the bugs and unwanted pests out. Repairing ripped screens is essential to keep ants, bugs, and intruders like squirrels out of your home.
