Custom window screen pricing in British Columbia depends on size, mesh type, frame, quantity and whether you add installation. Here's how the costs break down so you can budget.
Size. Price scales with the screen's area. A small bathroom window costs less than a large living-room unit; oversized openings cost more per square foot and may need heavier frames.
Mesh type. Standard fiberglass is the most economical. Metal mesh, pet-resistant mesh and no-see-um/solar mesh each carry an upgrade charge because the material is heavier and harder to handle.
Frame and options. Frame thickness, colour, corner hardware, lift handles and weather strips can add small surcharges. Retractable and motorized options cost more than fixed screens.
Quantity. Ordering multiple screens at once usually unlocks a bulk discount — useful if you're doing a whole house.
DIY vs installation. DIY orders ship across BC and Alberta with no labour cost. Professional measure-and-install across the Lower Mainland adds a service charge but guarantees fit and saves rework.
Ballpark. A standard custom window screen typically starts in the range of tens of dollars for a small unit and rises with size and mesh upgrades. For an exact figure, enter your dimensions and options in the online configurator for a live price, or request a quote for a full-home job.
