We take Aliceville work across the whole town, Downtown Aliceville through the US-17 corridor, and we cross into Carrollton and Reform on the same trips.
The mix of housing here matters for door work. Older Aliceville homes have wood frames and hardware worth repairing rather than replacing, while newer construction tends to have vinyl and aluminum systems where the moving parts wear out long before anything else does.

Humidity stays high from late spring through September, which is exactly when wood doors that fit fine in winter start dragging on the jamb.
Rain drives grit and organic debris into the screen track, and that debris packs down under the rollers and holds moisture against the frame.
Wind gets behind a screen panel and pushes it out of the track, and on hinged screen and storm doors a gust catching the door is what tears closers out of the frame.
We factor that in on every screen door repair job around Aliceville Lake on the Tenn-Tom Waterway and the rest of Aliceville.
Local factors we account for in Aliceville: heavy rainfall and storm wind — typical of west Alabama.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895How a Aliceville screen door repair visit works
- Work out whether it is the screen or the trackA screen that jams is often a track problem. Replacing rollers in a damaged track fixes nothing.
- Assess the frame for squareA racked frame will not sit in the track properly no matter what mesh is in it.
- Choose the right meshStandard fiberglass, pet-resistant, solar or fine mesh, depending on pets, sun exposure and what insects you are dealing with.
- Rescreen with correct tensionEven tension and properly seated spline so the mesh does not sag or pull out of the channel.
- Fit and adjust the rollersSet so the panel rides smoothly and stays captured in the head channel.
- Test the full travelEnd to end, several times, with the latch engaging cleanly at the close. Jobs out this way get their fixings checked into framing rather than casing, which is what stops the sag coming back.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Screen door repair in Aliceville: questions we get asked
My storm door blew open and broke. Can it be repaired?
Usually yes: the closer and its mounting take the damage. We repair the mounting and fit a wind chain so the next gust does not do the same thing.
How long does a rescreen take?
Usually under an hour per panel in Aliceville. If the frame needs straightening or corner keys replaced, allow a bit longer.
Is it worth rescreening or should I just buy a new screen door?
Rescreening is far cheaper and the frame is usually fine. New panels only make sense when the frame is bent beyond straightening or the corners are gone.
My screen mesh has gone brittle and crumbles. What happened?
UV exposure. Screens on the south and west sides of a house in Aliceville take a lot of sun, and standard fiberglass mesh eventually degrades. Solar mesh lasts longer and cuts heat at the same time.
Can you make a screen that keeps out the tiny biting insects?
Yes, fine no-see-um mesh. It has a much tighter weave, and in the parts of Pickens County near water it is the only thing that actually works against the smallest biters.
Do you make custom-size screens?
Yes. Older openings in Aliceville are rarely a stock size, and building a panel to the actual measured opening is the only way to get one that fits and stays in.
