If you live in Florida, chances are your patio or lanai gets plenty of use. But with all that sun, rain, humidity, and the occasional hurricane, screens can wear out faster than you’d expect. So the big question is: When is the best time of year to rescreen your patio in Florida?
Whether you’re in Naples, Bonita Springs, Marco Island, or even Cape Coral, knowing the right time to schedule rescreening can save you money, time, and headaches.
Why Timing Matters for Rescreening
In Southwest Florida, weather conditions have a major impact on your screens—and on your ability to replace them efficiently.
Screens can stretch, sag, tear, or discolor due to:
- UV exposure
- Heavy rain and humidity
- Hurricane debris
- Salt air corrosion
So while screen damage can happen year-round, there are better windows of time for replacing them.
The Ideal Time: Late Fall Through Early Spring
The best time to rescreen your patio or pool cage in Florida is between November and March. Here’s why:
✅ Mild Weather
During these months, the weather is cooler, less humid, and much more predictable. That means:
- Screens install tighter and won’t sag after installation
- Less chance of rain delays
- Easier scheduling (contractors are less backed up)
✅ Hurricane Season is Over
Florida’s hurricane season runs from June through November. Waiting until it ends helps ensure:
- No last-minute storms damage your new screens
- Your screens survive next season without immediate repairs
✅ You’re Using the Patio Less
Most Florida residents spend less time on the patio in cooler months. That makes it the perfect time to fix things up and get ready for spring and summer.
When to Avoid Rescreening
🚫 Peak of Summer (June to August)
High humidity and frequent afternoon storms make it hard to complete rescreening without delays. Screens also stretch more during installation in extreme heat, making them saggy once it cools.
🚫 Right Before a Storm
Waiting until a tropical storm is on the radar is risky. Most companies—including Best Rescreen Company—get fully booked right before or after hurricanes hit. Plan ahead to avoid long wait times.
But What If My Screens Are Damaged Now?
If your screens are ripped, loose, or falling out—don’t wait. Damaged screens can lead to:
- Insects getting in (especially no-see-ums)
- Higher chances of structural damage
- Loss of privacy or sun protection
- Pets or children breaking through
