    Is it inappropriate to tell you I love you? 😆🥰For years I've have been dumbfounded as to how to repair a screen and I think I watched a video or two but this was simple and to the point! Thank you!

    Perfect. This is what all instructional videos should be like - straight to the task with simple explaining along the way and then done.

      Exactly, The short length of the vid is why I chose this one and loved how he got right right to the title without all the "like, hit, subscribe: chatter. He saved that for last. Well done.

    OMG finally a video without any opening credits or music or long drawn out explanation of what it's going to contain before even starting the job! I love this! You should make an instructional video for all the other people who make painful videos.

    Placing your hand on the screen in the last run solved my problem of over tightening and bowing the frame. I knew someone (YOU) had a good method. Thank you.

  • @gsnow1815
    @gsnow1815 3 года назад +36

    This never goes out of style, screen replacement is something that does not change. I’ve watched several DIY videos on replacing and yours is one of the fastest and easiest to follow. The hand on the last edge is definitely a must so it is not too tight. Great job.

    @kellygirl811 4 года назад +6

    When I got the message someone gave me a thumbs up I figured I'd come back and say how it went. It worked like a charm. I may have even been faster than Alex lol. My issue was trying to get the screen seriously tight. Even having my hubby and daughter pulling on the screen. I also did not understand the difference between the 2 wheels on the tool. Just learning the screen did not have to be tight...the right end of the tool to use..things just moved along. I'm very thankful I choose this video to watch and always prefer the short sweet and to the point ones. Thanks Alex.

    • @AlexRubioRQualityGlass
      @AlexRubioRQualityGlass  4 года назад

    WOW!!! Thank You. I’m an older female that is not savvy in window screen replacements and found your video easy to follow. Though it took me more like 30 minutes to your 3, it really was so easy!! My edge trimming didn’t turn out all pretty, but it’s functional & I know the changes to make next time. Thank you again - I’ll be checking out your other videos!!

I left your video and went and did three screens. Took me more than 3 minutes but I likely got all 3 done in 15-20 minutes while kneeling on the floor.

    @justinegrayson2352 5 лет назад +9

    That was amazing to watch. I am building screens for each section of my screen porch (20 large sections). I would love it if you had a video on building the screens - especially cutting the frames and a quick easy way to do that. It is taking me forever to do the cuts with a little hack saw while the frame wiggles around even when I use the miter box to help hold it. I will take any and all advice you have for me. Thanks again for putting up a PERFECT video of the rescreen. I have to do about 20 of those also.
