Balcony Mosquito Net Costs (Including Ziptrack)
Balconies are the most expensive area to cover because of their large size and need for gap-free sealing. Here are 2026 prices for standard Hyderabad balcony sizes:
- Small balcony (8ft wide x 7ft high): Ziptrack manual — ₹18,000–₹25,000 | Motorized — ₹32,000–₹42,000
- Standard balcony (10ft wide x 7ft high): Ziptrack manual — ₹25,000–₹35,000 | Motorized — ₹42,000–₹55,000
- Large balcony (12ft wide x 8ft high): Ziptrack manual — ₹32,000–₹45,000 | Motorized — ₹55,000–₹70,000
- Extra large (15ft+ wide): Requires dual Ziptrack screens meeting in middle — ₹50,000–₹80,000
Alternative for budget: Fixed frame nets on balconies cost ₹8,000–₹15,000 for a 10ft balcony, but you lose the ability to open the balcony entirely (mesh is permanently installed). Not recommended for balconies you actually want to use.
Hidden Costs & Add-Ons to Ask About
When getting quotes, ask specifically about these potential extra costs. Reputable installers include them in the base price; cheaper quotes often exclude them.
- GST (18%): Legally required. Some quotes show "price + GST" separately. Our prices above include GST.
- Travel charges: Installers may charge ₹500–₹1,500 extra for homes far from their base (e.g., Shadnagar, Sangareddy, Yadadri). Within Hyderabad perimeter, most include travel.
- Old net removal/disposal: If replacing existing nets, some charge ₹200–₹500 per window for removal.
- Custom colors: Standard aluminum frames come in white, black, or brown. Custom colors matching your window frames cost extra (₹500–₹1,500 per window).
- SS304 mesh upgrade: Standard is fiberglass or polyester. Upgrading to SS304 stainless steel (rust-proof, 5x stronger) adds ₹80–₹120 per sq ft.
- Child safety locks: For pleated nets, child safety locks that prevent opening from below add ₹300–₹500 per window.
Price Differences by Area of Hyderabad
Mosquito net prices don't vary dramatically across Hyderabad, but you'll see differences based on competition and installer density:
- Central Hyderabad (Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills, Gachibowli, Madhapur, Kondapur): Prices are 5-10% higher due to higher installer overheads. A 3BHK pleated net installation here costs ₹25,000–₹45,000.
- Mid Hyderabad (Kukatpally, Miyapur, LB Nagar, Dilsukhnagar, Uppal): Most competitive area with many installers. Prices are 5-10% lower. 3BHK pleated: ₹20,000–₹35,000.
- Peripheral areas (Shamshabad, Patancheru, Medchal, Ghatkesar): Fewer installers, sometimes add travel fee. Base prices similar to mid-Hyderabad but travel fee may apply.
For Ziptrack screens, prices are consistent across Hyderabad because only 4-5 companies in the city install them. Expect to pay the ranges listed above regardless of area.
Frequently Asked Questions on Pricing
Q: Why are pleated nets more expensive than roller nets?
A: Pleated nets have more complex mechanisms — two tracks (top and bottom vs just a top cassette), spring tension systems on both sides, and more aluminum. The manufacturing cost is 30-40% higher than roller nets.
Q: Can I get a discount for installing all windows at once?
A: Yes. Most installers (including Mr. Mosquito) offer 5-10% discount for full-home installations (6+ windows). Ask specifically for "full home discount" when getting a quote.
Q: Are cheaper online options (like Urban Company) worth it?
A: Urban Company and similar platforms quote ₹2,000–₹3,500 per window for pleated nets. However, they use thinner aluminum (1.0mm vs standard 1.4mm) and lower-grade mesh. Expect 2-3 year lifespan vs 5-7 years from specialized mosquito net companies. For rental homes, they're fine. For your own home, pay the premium.
Q: How much does annual maintenance cost?
A: Professional cleaning and servicing costs ₹1,200–₹2,500 per visit for a 3BHK home. Annual maintenance plans (2 visits per year) cost ₹2,000–₹4,000/year.
Q: Do you offer EMI or financing options?
A: Many installers (including Mr. Mosquito) offer zero-cost EMI for 3-6 months on credit cards. For larger projects (₹50,000+), we also offer direct financing at 0% interest for 6 months.
Pro Tip from Mr. Mosquito
Always get 3 quotes before deciding. But don't just compare the final number — compare the mesh type, aluminum thickness, warranty period, and whether GST is included. The cheapest quote often uses fiberglass mesh (sags in 2 years) and 1.0mm aluminum (bends easily). Pay 20% more for polyester mesh and 1.4mm aluminum, and your nets will last 5-7 years instead of 2-3.
