Do you have a screen a home with a tear in it? Would you believe that it's easier and cheaper to fix that screen than it is to buy a brand new one?
Its true, I'll show you.
The tools you will need for this are simple. You will need screen mesh/material, spline/cord and a spline tool (you can find all of these at any local home improvement store).
Start by removing the damaged screen material and cord/spline from the screen frame. A flat head screwdriver can help remove the cord/spline from the edge of the frame.
NOTE: Be gentle, you don't want to break the channel that the spline sits in or the frame is useless.
Roll the screen material/mesh over the frame to measure how much you'll need, let the material hang over the frame, you'll trim it later. Take your new spline/cord and the spline tool and press the spline/cord into the channel around the entire screen. Trim off excess spline/cord and screen/mesh and you're finished.
Good Luck!!
