Can screens be cleaned in place?

Not properly. Scrubbing mesh inside the frame stretches it and drives dirt into the corners. We take them out and wash them flat.

What happens if a screen is torn?

We photograph it, leave it alone, and let you know. We don't re-spline or replace mesh, so you can have it quoted properly.

Should I add screens to a window cleaning?

Usually yes. Clean glass behind a grey screen still looks dull from inside the house.

Can screen cleaning be booked on its own?

Yes, though most homeowners add it to a window cleaning since we're at every opening anyway.

How long do screens take to dry?

They're dried before refitting, so windows can be closed and used as soon as we're finished.

Service

Screen Cleaning Services

Trapped dust and debris removed so views stay clear.

Fully insured with transparent pricing before you book.

Screens that stop greying the view, so the glass behind them actually reads as clean from inside the house.

A screen holds a season of pollen, road dust, and insect debris in its mesh, and it sits directly in front of glass you just paid to have cleaned. Cleaning screens in place stretches the mesh and pushes dirt into the frame, so ours come out, get washed and dried flat, and go back into the exact opening they came from.

How we do the work.

01
Remove and label
Each screen comes out and is tracked so it returns to the window it came from.
02
Wash flat
Mesh is washed and dried flat rather than scrubbed in place — the method that avoids stretching.
03
Inspect
Tears, bent frames, and failing splines are photographed and reported so you can decide what to do.
04
Refit and check
Screens are reseated properly and checked to sit flush in the opening.

If a screen is damaged before we touch it, you'll see a photo of it — never a quiet refit.
