Nothing ruins a nice spring day like a torn window screen. Mosquitoes sneak in, pollen coats your furniture, and that little rip just keeps getting bigger. At First Response Home Services, we fix screens the right way—fast, affordable, and built to last.

No need to take down your screens and drive them to a shop. We handle everything on-site, so you can get back to enjoying the fresh air.
Why Screen Repair Matters
Screens do more than you might think. Here in Georgia, they're your first line of defense against all sorts of problems.
Keep the Bugs Out
Georgia is famous for mosquitoes, gnats, and flies. Even a small hole lets them in. A torn screen is like an open invitation for every bug in your yard to come inside.
Enjoy Fresh Air
There's nothing like opening windows on a cool spring morning. But without good screens, you're also letting in pollen, leaves, and debris. Screens let you breathe easy while keeping the outside where it belongs.
Protect Your Pets
Cats love sitting in open windows. Dogs get excited when they see a squirrel. A damaged screen won't hold up, and the last thing you want is a pet getting outside. Sturdy screens keep your furry friends safe.
Curb Appeal
Torn, sagging, or missing screens look bad from both inside and outside your home. New screens make your windows look clean and well-maintained. It's a small detail that makes a big difference.
Common Screen Problems We Fix
Screens take a beating from weather, pets, kids, and just everyday life. Here are the most common issues we see in Atlanta-area homes.
Holes and Tears
From small pinholes to large rips. Even tiny holes let bugs through.
Bent or Broken Frames
Frames get dented, bent, or cracked from impacts or age.
Pet Damage
Dogs and cats scratch, paw, and push through regular screens.
Worn-Out Mesh
Old screens get brittle and break down from sun exposure.
Loose or Missing Spline
The rubber strip that holds mesh in place can dry out and fall out.
Warped or Rusted Frames
Metal frames can corrode. Wooden frames can warp.
No matter what's wrong with your screens, we can fix it. Call (404) 797-8115 to schedule your repair.
Our Screen Repair Services
We offer a full range of screen services for homes across metro Atlanta. Here's what we can do for you.
Re-Screening
If your frame is still in good shape, we can replace just the mesh. This is the most affordable option and works great for most repairs. We remove the old screen material, install new mesh, and secure it with fresh spline.
Frame Repair
Bent corners, broken joints, and damaged frame pieces can often be repaired without replacing the whole screen. We straighten bent aluminum, replace broken corners, and fix minor damage to get your frames working like new.
New Screens
Sometimes a screen is too far gone to repair. When frames are badly bent, rusted, or missing, we build brand new screens. We measure your windows and create custom screens that fit perfectly every time.
Types of Screen Material
Not all screen mesh is the same. We offer several options to match your needs and budget.
Fiberglass Screen
The most popular choice for homeowners. Fiberglass screen is affordable, flexible, and won't corrode or rust. It's easy to install and provides good visibility. This is our go-to recommendation for most window screens in Atlanta homes.
Best for: Most windows, budget-friendly repairs
Aluminum Screen
Stronger and more durable than fiberglass. Aluminum screen holds its shape better and lasts longer in high-traffic areas. It won't stretch or sag over time. You can even paint it to match your window frames.
Best for: Screen doors, high-traffic areas, long-term durability
Pet-Resistant Screen
If you have dogs or cats, you know how fast they can destroy a regular screen. Pet-resistant screen is made from heavy-duty vinyl-coated polyester. It's about 7 times stronger than standard fiberglass and can handle claws, paws, and pushes.
Best for: Homes with pets, screen doors, lower windows
Solar Screen
Solar screens block up to 90% of the sun's heat and UV rays before they enter your home. This keeps your house cooler in Atlanta's hot summers and protects your furniture from fading. The trade-off is slightly reduced visibility, but most homeowners don't mind.
Best for: Sun-facing windows, reducing cooling costs, UV protection
Our Screen Repair Process
We make screen repair simple. Here's how it works when you call First Response Home Services.
Inspect
We look at all your screens and note which ones need repair or replacement. We'll give you an honest opinion about what's worth fixing.
Measure
For screens that need to be rebuilt or custom-made, we take exact measurements. This helps us make screens that fit perfectly in your frames.
Repair
Most re-screening can be done on-site the same day. For custom screens, we may need to build them and return for installation.
Install
We put your repaired screens back in place and make sure everything fits right. We clean up after ourselves—you won't know we were there.
Screen Repair vs. Replacement
Should you patch that hole or get a whole new screen? Here's how we help you decide.
When to Repair
- Frame is straight and in good condition
- Only the mesh is damaged
- Corners and joints are still tight
- Screen fits properly in the window
When to Replace
- Frame is bent, warped, or rusted
- Corners are broken or won't stay together
- Screen doesn't fit the window anymore
- You want to upgrade to a different screen type

Custom Screens for Any Window
Not all windows are standard sizes. Older homes in Atlanta, Marietta, and Roswell often have unique window shapes and sizes. Some windows have curved tops, unusual proportions, or frames that don't match modern standard sizes.
That's no problem for us. We build custom screens to fit any window in your home. We measure carefully, cut precisely, and create screens that fit like they came with the house.
We also make screens for sliding glass doors, French doors, and specialty openings. If it needs a screen, we can make it.

- French doors and patio doors
- Basement windows

Porch and Patio Screen Repair
We don't just fix window screens—we repair screened porches and patios too.
Screened porches are a big part of life here in metro Atlanta. They give you a place to enjoy the outdoors without dealing with bugs, heat, and pollen. But porch screens take a lot of abuse. Wind, weather, pets, and kids all wear them down over time.
We repair and replace porch screens of all sizes. Whether you have a small screened-in area or a large wraparound porch, we can help. We work with standard screen panels as well as large-format screens for big openings.
