No. Every person on your job is a Wekiva employee — trained, drug-tested, and accountable.

Yes. All estimates are free, written, and no-pressure. Most are delivered within 48 hours of the on-site visit.

Question 5

How much does a pool cage rescreen cost?

Accepted Answer

Most jobs run $1.50–$3.50 per square foot. A typical 1,200 sqft cage usually lands between $1,800 and $4,200 depending on mesh type and panel count.

Question 6

Do you offer financing?

Accepted Answer

We accept Visa, Mastercard, Amex, and personal checks. For larger custom builds we can connect you with third-party financing partners.

Question 7

How long does a typical rescreen take?

Accepted Answer

Most full rescreens take 1–2 days on site. Single-panel and door repairs are usually same-day.

Question 8

Will my landscaping be protected?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we tarp pools, stage materials off your lawn, and clean every scrap of old mesh and trim before we leave.

Question 9

What safety standards do you follow?

Accepted Answer

OSHA-compliant fall protection, ladder discipline, and daily site cleanups on every job.

Question 10

What kind of mesh do you use?

Accepted Answer

Standard charcoal 18x14 fiberglass, no-see-um tighter weave, pet-resistant (heavier polyester), and Florida Glass solid lower panels — your choice based on budget and use case.

Question 11

What does the 3-year warranty cover?

Accepted Answer

Workmanship and materials on screen, frame, and fasteners. See the Warranty page for full terms.

Question 12

Why heavier-gauge aluminum?

Accepted Answer

Florida wind loads punish thin stock. Heavier-gauge frames last longer, look straighter, and won't twist after the first hurricane season.

Question 13

How soon can you start?

Accepted Answer

Most rescreens schedule within 1–2 weeks. Custom builds depend on permit timing — usually 4–8 weeks from signed estimate.

Question 14

Accepted Answer

Yes. We have a 24-hour live answering service and triage emergency calls first.

Question 15

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer
