A properly built lanai screen enclosure gives you usable outdoor space without insects, pollen, and debris. Raleigh Screens installs new enclosures and repairs framing, panels, and doors with code-aware fastening, clean lines, and durable mesh choices for your home or business in Raleigh.
Every lanai screen enclosure starts with a solid footprint and accurate layout. We verify slab condition, pitch, and attachment points, then set plumb and square framing so doors close cleanly and panels stay tight. When needed, we replace damaged base tracks and anchor into sound concrete or structural framing using corrosion-resistant fasteners, isolating dissimilar metals to reduce galvanic corrosion.
Local weather adds real wear on enclosures, including wind-driven rain, high humidity, and UV exposure. We tune the build for these conditions with proper weep paths, tight spline work, and mesh selected for performance, including fiberglass insect screen, polyester, and heavy-duty pet screen where appropriate. Finish details matter, so we align sightlines, seal penetrations, correct loose corners, and adjust hinges, closers, and latches to reduce rattle and air gaps.
Raleigh customers choose us for straightforward recommendations and workmanship that holds up. You get clear options on frame repairs versus re-screening, plus transparent material specs such as 18x14 fiberglass mesh, solar screen upgrades, and aluminum framing components. Our crews show up with the right equipment for a clean install, including levels, torque-controlled drivers, rivet tools, spline rollers, and safe ladder and scaffold practices, and we keep the jobsite tidy from start to finish.
Before we wrap up, we do a full walkthrough and function check of your lanai screen enclosure. That includes inspecting fasteners and corners, confirming panel tension, checking door swing and latch alignment, and verifying that no sharp edges or loose screen ends are left behind. You receive a written scope, material selections, and care guidance, plus photos of key repairs when helpful, so you know exactly what was done and what to monitor over time.
Yes, we provide a free written estimate after an on-site measure so the scope and materials are clear.
Often, yes. We’ll identify your current frame system and mesh type, then recommend the closest match that performs well and is available.
Small repairs can be quick, while larger porches and multi-panel walls take longer due to prep, panel count, and door work. After we measure, we’ll give you a realistic timeline.
Yes. We can replace torn mesh, bent frame members, damaged doors, and compromised trim, and we’ll flag any structural issues that need carpentry before screening.
We’ll confirm payment options with your written estimate and invoice. If your project requires a deposit for custom materials, we’ll state that upfront.
If your lanai screen enclosure is sagging, letting pests in, or showing rust stains and loose panels, the fix is usually a combination of better framing alignment, stronger attachment, and correctly tensioned screening. Raleigh Screens handles new installs and targeted repairs for homeowners and commercial properties, with practical guidance on mesh type, door hardware, and drainage details that make the space comfortable and low-maintenance.
A quality lanai screen enclosure is more than mesh replacement. We start by checking the structure, including out-of-square corners, loose fasteners, bent rails, and compromised attachment points at the slab or wall. Then we match the repair to the problem: re-fastening and squaring the frame, replacing damaged members, re-screening panels with new spline, and correcting door alignment to stop rubbing and air gaps. If you are dealing with pets, high pollen, or harsh sun, we will walk you through mesh upgrades like heavier pet screen or solar screening to reduce glare and improve comfort.
For installation, we focus on straight lines, clean intersections, and dependable drainage. That means accurate measurements, plumb posts, level headers, and consistent fastener spacing using corrosion-resistant hardware suited for exterior exposure. We also pay attention to small details that prevent callbacks, including tight corners, smooth screen cuts, and properly seated spline that keeps the mesh from creeping loose over time.
After the work is complete, we inspect the enclosure with you and confirm doors operate smoothly, panels are taut, and transitions are sealed and finished neatly. You will receive a clear written scope, the material specs used, and simple maintenance tips for cleaning screens and checking hardware seasonally.
