Screen cleaning that makes the view match the window.
Windows and screens are a package deal. Clean glass behind a dusty, bug-scuffed screen still looks dirty from inside. We pull every screen, wash it flat in soapy water, dry it completely, and rehang, labeled so each goes back in the opening it came from. Damaged mesh gets rescreened on site.
What's included in this service?
- Screen removal with careful labeling by room and opening
- Flat-wash in soapy water with soft brush
- Full rinse and dry to prevent watermarks
- Frame inspection for bent corners
- Mesh rescreen if the mesh is torn, sagging, or popped from the spline
- Solar screen and sun-screen mesh cleaning (dust destroys solar-screen performance fast)
- Pet screen replacement (heavier gauge for dogs and cats)
- Rehang with weather-stripping check
When do you need this service?
- Daylight through the screen looks grey instead of clear
- You can see finger-drawn shapes where someone pressed against it
- Mesh is torn or has popped out of the spline groove
- Solar-screen mesh has faded and looks patchy
- Post-brush-fire ash has coated every screen on the house
- Pet claws have left holes in lower sections
- Pre-painting prep, screens have to come off anyway
What do homeowners ask about Screen Cleaning?
Can screens be cleaned without being pulled off?
You can spot-clean them in place with a brush attachment and a hose, but you won't get them back to factory-clean without pulling them. The spline groove and corners hold decades of grime that requires a flat wash. We pull, wash, and rehang as one step, and label each screen so it lands back in the opening it belongs to.
Do you rescreen damaged mesh?
Yes. Standard fiberglass, aluminum, pet-grade, and solar-screen mesh, all in stock on the truck. We can rescreen an opening in about 15 minutes once we're there. It's usually cheaper than buying a replacement insert at the hardware store.
What about solar screens and sun screens?
Solar screens need a gentler wash to preserve the coating that blocks UV and heat. We use soft brushes and lower water pressure on them. If the weave has started to fade or tear, we rescreen with the same mesh weight your existing solar screens use (7%, 80%, or 90% openness).
Will you label the screens so they go back in the right spots?
Always. Each screen gets a painter's-tape tag on removal noting the room and opening. We rehang in reverse order at the end of the job. Screens for different openings are not always interchangeable, corner rounding and frame width vary, so this matters.
How often should screens be cleaned?
Same cadence as your windows, twice a year for most homes, quarterly for coastal and canyon homes, monthly only in special cases (construction site nearby, severe allergy household, or post-brush-fire ash event).

Quarterly plan since last summer. Same tech every visit, knows our house, texts before he comes. Windows always perfect, and honestly the screens and tracks are the real difference, other companies skip those.
We had years of sprinkler spots on the south side of the house. Two other companies said they could not remove them. Shine Pro brought specific chemistry, polished them out in an afternoon, and showed me which sprinkler head was the culprit. Glass looks new.
Our production app was showing below last year. Had them clean the panels plus our windows in the same visit. Production bounced back within a week. Bundled price was better than getting the two services separately.
