Auburn Window Replacement provides professional window screens and insect screening in Auburn, AL for residential and commercial properties across Lee County and east Alabama. This is the cheapest page on this site and it is also the one most likely to save you a letter from the city, which tells you something about how the window business normally sets its priorities.
Here is the rule. The property maintenance code Auburn adopted requires every door, window and other outside opening used for ventilation of a habitable room to carry an approved, tightly fitting screen of not less than sixteen mesh per inch. The model code leaves the enforcement period as a blank for the adopting city to fill in with a seasonal date range. Auburn filled it in year round.
So in this city a missing screen is not a summer inconvenience. It is a standing defect in February the same as it is in July, on any window somebody actually opens for air. It is also, from an inspector's point of view, the single easiest thing in the world to spot from the sidewalk.
Sixteen mesh per inch is the specification and it is not arbitrary. It is the coarsest weave that reliably keeps mosquitoes out, and it is the number written in the code, so buying an eighteen by fourteen insect mesh or a coarser pet mesh means you have not met it even though the opening now has something in it. Read the label on the roll.
Now the part where we talk ourselves out of work, and we mean it. Rescreening is a genuinely easy job.
You need a spline roller, a bag of spline in the right diameter, a roll of mesh and a utility knife, and the whole tool kit costs about what one screen costs to have made.
If your frames are straight, do it yourself on a Saturday and enjoy the smugness. We will still take the call if you want us to, and we will not pretend it was difficult.
Where you should call somebody is when the frames themselves are gone. Bent aluminum, corner keys that have crumbled, or a frame that has bowed enough that the mesh will never sit tight. Those get rebuilt from extrusion to the actual opening, which is worth doing properly, and it is still an inexpensive line on any quote.
Solar screens are the upgrade actually worth money in this climate, and they are a different product with a different job.
A woven solar fabric hung on the outside of a west-facing bedroom or an upstairs landing intercepts a large share of the heat before it ever reaches the glass, needs no permit, no inspection and no ordering lead time, and can go up on an afternoon.
On a house where new glass is not in the budget this year, it is the best money in the trade.
One local maintenance note. Pine pollen coats everything here in March and April, and a screen loaded with it stops airflow and starts holding water against the sash. Hose them down once in spring. That is the entire maintenance program.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — the property maintenance code adopted by city ordinance, glazing kept free of cracks and holes, sash held in position by its own hardware, sixteen mesh per inch insect screening, sash locking devices on ground-floor rented units, deadbolts with a one-inch throw at dwelling unit doors — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Auburn and nearby communities including Opelika, Phenix City, Smiths Station, Loachapoka.

Materials, equipment and how we do window screens and insect screening
The difference between window screens and insect screening that lasts and window screens and insect screening that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with the property maintenance code adopted by city ordinance, glazing kept free of cracks and holes, sash held in position by its own hardware, sixteen mesh per inch insect screening, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Auburn job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of window work in Lee County and east Alabama means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
