Torn Flyscreen? Quick Replacement in Dover Heights, NSW

A torn flyscreen might seem like a small problem, but it lets insects inside and leaves a window looking neglected. When the damage is on an upper floor, it’s also a job most homeowners can’t safely reach on their own.

At a home in Dover Heights, NSW, a flyscreen on a second storey window had been accidentally bumped and damaged. High Demand Restoration was contacted the day before and attended first thing the next morning to replace it.

Torn Flyscreen on a Second Storey Window

The before photos show the mesh torn through the lower section of the screen. Once the mesh is torn, the screen can no longer do its job of keeping insects out, and the gap usually gets bigger over time.

New Flyscreen Supplied and Installed

The damaged screen was removed from the window, and a new flyscreen was supplied and installed in a single visit. The new screen fits the existing window, so it sits neatly in place and blends in with the frame.

Window Protected Again

With the new flyscreen fitted, the window can be opened for fresh air again without letting insects in. The job was completed the same morning, and the client was happy with the result.

What to Do If Your Flyscreen Is Damaged

• Don’t leave it. Small tears tend to grow, and insects can get through even a small gap.
• Avoid climbing up yourself. Upper floor windows are hard to reach safely without the right access.
• Replace rather than patch when the mesh is badly torn, so the screen fits and works properly again.
