What does pool-cage rescreening cost near Melbourne?

What Florida estimates look like.

$1,200–$4,500

A Florida pricing guide estimates $1,200–$4,500 for a full-cage rescreen with standard fiberglass mesh. It is a helpful starting point for your conversation with a contractor.

For regional context, a Southwest Florida screen contractor estimates $1,500–$4,500 for an average residential pool cage, with large or two-story cages running higher.

Panel repairs cost less. Some contractors estimate about $35–$90 per panel for a standard ground-level panel with fiberglass mesh, and a minimum visit charge is common for small jobs. Your on-site quote is the number to plan around.

What changes the estimate?

• Scope: all wall and roof panels, selected panels, doors, or only a lanai.
• Mesh: exact product, weave, brand and areas where it will be installed.
• Height and access: tall roof panels, obstructions and equipment needs.
• Condition: spline, fasteners, doors and frame work are each priced on their own.
• Travel and minimums: especially for a regional company or a small repair.
• Coastal exposure: salt air on the barrier island and near the lagoon can change material and fastener choices.

These are the factors contractors commonly list. Your contractor’s on-site visit turns them into your quote.

Ask for these line items.

1. Exactly which wall, roof and door panels are included?
2. What manufacturer and mesh specification will be used?
3. Are removal, disposal, new spline and cleanup included?
4. Which screws, door parts or framing work are extra?
5. Are access equipment, travel, minimum charges and taxes included?
6. What happens if concealed damage changes the scope?
7. What are the deposit, balance and written warranty terms?

Keep the written scope beside each price so you are comparing like with like.

When a cheaper repair may be enough.

If damage is limited and the remaining mesh is sound, ask about individual panels. Ask whether a minimum visit charge applies. If the mesh is brittle throughout, compare repeated patching with a complete rescreen estimate.
