What does a flyscreen installation include?

Flyscreen specialists can help with all aspects of installing and repairing mesh coverings on your doors and windows. Many also offer security screens and pet-proof screens for extra protection. Here’s what you can expect from some of the most common flyscreen services:

Window flyscreen installations

If they’re re-meshing your flyscreen, your installer will start by using a brush to dust any dirt and cobwebs off the mesh and frame, before removing the entire frame to a flat surface. Next, they’ll poke a screwdriver into the frame’s corners to ease out the spline (a long rubber cord that locks the screen in place) and remove the old mesh. Then they’ll unroll the new flyscreen and lay it over the top of the frame, leaving a 10cm overhang. They’ll use a roller to push the spline back in place, locking in the fresh flyscreen mesh. Finally, they’ll trim away excess mesh at the edges before re-installing the window frame. Installing window flyscreens involves different techniques, depending on the window type. But in general, your installer will remove the frame, layout the flyscreen, and lock into place.

Flyscreen door repairs and installations

Installing flyscreens on doors involves a similar process to windows, albeit on a larger scale. Your installer will remove the door frame and lay it flat before rolling out the new flyscreen mesh over the top. They’ll secure the mesh around the edges using a long spline before trimming, then re-fitting your door. It’s worth mentioning that you can choose from a variety of mesh types, including fibreglass mesh (most common and low-cost), pet-proof mesh, aluminium mesh (extra strong), and even one-way mesh (for privacy). Your installer will be able to advise on the best mesh for your budget, environment, and family.

Retractable flyscreens

Retractable flyscreens are a popular option for keeping flies off decks, verandas, and patios. They work like roller blinds, installed so they’re hanging from the edges of your patio roof. Your installer will follow the instructions that come with the kit. But usually, the process involves cutting the parts to fit the size of your space, before installing with a drill.

Hello, my fly screen leading to the balcony needs to be replaced, can someone send me a quote for the purchase and installation of a fly screen? I have a newborn baby in the house so i can’t buy the flyscreen from bunnings but if you get it for me and help with installation that would be awesome! Lemme know.

Riley started out doing just the one mesh replacement on our outdoor balcony door. He even took the pains to split the mesh in two halves so it is easier for us to replace in the future. We ended up fixing another door with him due to his sheer professionalism. Riley also offered to show us the bill from his trip to Bunnings so we know the cost of his materials. All in all I would work with Riley again especially for those of you on a BUDGET.

Low quality work. Damaged items in the process of "fixing them". Had to pay another tradesman to fix his work. No attention to detail. Very argumentative and then got aggressive and started cursing. Unprofessional. Would not use again.
