Inspect your screens before wet weather
Check existing screens before the monsoon and after periods of heavy dust or wind. Damaged mesh, loose frames and difficult movement are useful reasons to arrange an inspection. Screens are one part of managing openings and do not guarantee protection from mosquito-borne illness.
Review the areas around your openings
Look at the windows, doors and balcony access used every day. Check whether the mesh fits the frame and whether a screen can close as intended. Keep access to the opening clear so it can be inspected and maintained.
Room-by-room screen checklist
- Windows: look for torn mesh, edge gaps and loose fitting.
- Doors: check closure, handles and clear access.
- Balconies: inspect guided tracks and mounting surfaces.
- Powered screens: check normal operation without opening motors or electrical connections.
Arrange repairs where needed
Do not force a jammed screen. Follow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions and arrange an installer’s assessment if the frame or mechanism is damaged. For high openings or electrical issues, seek appropriate professional help.
Choose replacements for the opening
Compare dimensions, operation and mesh configuration before replacing a screen. A site visit can help confirm the suitable product and measured quote.
