How to Replace a Damaged Window Screen -

Window screens get damaged because of kids, pets, or accidents! You don't have to live with ugly screens with holes and rips. Here's how you can easily repair them! (TIP: You can use kid- and pet-resistant screening, too, that doesn't rip easily!)

I find the job much easier if you roll the screen into the track using the tool first before adding the spline.

[@ThriftDiving]

Thanks for the tip! You mean it helps to create a crease there in the track so it's easier to add the spline?

[@grny28]

@@ThriftDiving Yes! It keeps the material from becoming too taunt.

[@SonicBoomC98]

So, cut out the screen like she says, then use the spline tool, then put the spline in, and use the tool again?

Haha how did you know?!?! I have all the stuff to do it but it helps to see how easy it is…

[@ThriftDiving]

It's very easy! It's just not a "fun" project so it's easy to put off. LOL

I just might do this as soon as I find two screens that fell off

My dog literally jumped out TWO of my screens so this will keep the landlord off my a$$. You’re doing gods work 😂

Squirrels ripped up all my screens. Thank you.

[@ThriftDiving]

There is a company that makes animal-resistant window screening! I can't remember the name but if you google it, you should find it. You'll have to order it online!
