Screen Porch?
I have a screened in porch already existing, we had someone install it when it was new. Now the screen is old and has holes in it, I want to put new screen in, but not sure how to do it? could someone please give me some instructions on how to do it. Thanks... George Burda.

Your screen should have wood strips tacked around the edges.
Carefully remove the strips, and remove the old screen and staples.
Cut new screen a little long, staple it at the top and roll the bottom of the screen around a broom handle or something to pull it smooth with.
Staple the bottom and sides while stretched taut. Trim the excess screen with a utility knife.
Re-tack the wood strips.
Good Luck!
