Custom Window Screens

Furgason Snead specializes in high-quality, custom-fabricated window screens designed to last. Whether you need a full-house replacement or a specialty screen for a unique frame, we provide expert craftsmanship and professional installation that lets the fresh air in while keeping the pests out.

A screen is the first line of defense against disease-carrying pests.

• Insects: Even a tiny tear is an "open door" for mosquitoes (which carry West Nile or Zika), flies, and stinging insects like wasps.
• Small Critters: In many areas, damaged screens can allow spiders, lizards, or even small rodents to find their way into the window tracks and eventually into the home.

Many homeowners don't realize their screens impact their utility bills.

• Natural Cooling: When screens are broken, homeowners are less likely to open their windows. This leads to increased reliance on air conditioning.
• Air Filtration: Screens act as a preliminary filter for dust, pollen, and debris. Torn screens allow these allergens to blow directly into the home, lowering indoor air quality.
• Heat Gain: Modern specialty screens (like the ones Furgason Snead can provide) can block up to 90% of solar heat, significantly cooling a room without using power.

A damaged screen can actually lead to much more expensive window repairs.

• Debris Build-up: Screens keep leaves and twigs out of the window tracks. Without a screen, moisture and debris trap themselves in the tracks, leading to mold, rot (in wood frames), or window jams.
• Glass Protection: While screens aren't "shutter-proof," they do provide a buffer against wind-blown debris or stray balls that might otherwise crack a pane of glass.

Screens are highly visible from the street.

• First Impressions: Faded, sagging, or torn mesh makes a home look neglected. If a homeowner is planning to sell, home inspectors and buyers often view damaged screens as a sign of "deferred maintenance" across the rest of the property.
• Visual Clarity: Old fiberglass screens become brittle and "cloudy" over time. New, high-visibility mesh can make a view look almost like it's in High Definition compared to an old, dusty screen.

• Containment: For pet owners, a torn screen is a hazard. Pets can easily push through a weakened mesh, leading to escapes or injuries.
• Security: While not a "security bar," a sturdy, well-fitted screen is a psychological and physical deterrent that makes a home a less "easy" target than one with wide-open, unprotected windows.
