Pool Cage Repair Prices in Gainesville, FL
Here is roughly what screen and cage jobs cost around town, so the estimate isn’t a shock. We come out free, and the figure you sign doesn’t change.
| Cage | Typical rescreen | Usually means |
|---|---|---|
| Small single-story cage | $1,800–$2,800 | Roughly 1,000 sq ft of screen, simple roof, easy access |
| Mid-size cage | $2,800–$4,000 | More panels, a door or two, standard roof height |
| Large two-story or mansard | $4,000–$5,500 | Tall walls, many roof panels, ladders and staging |
Pool Cage Rescreen Prices by Cage Size in Gainesville
Size sets the base. Height and condition set the rest.
The amount of screen on the cage tells us how many panels we’re cutting and rolling. Wall height and roof style tell us how much ladder work it takes. A low dome cage on an open lot goes faster than a tall mansard tucked against a fence in Haile Plantation or Kanapaha.

What Raises a Gainesville Pool Cage Quote
Five things we check first.
Height and roof style
Dome, gable and mansard roofs all rescreen differently. Tall walls and two-story cages mean more ladder time and more hands on the job.
Frame condition
Bent purlins, loose braces and stripped screws have to be fixed before new screen goes on. If we spot them on the estimate, they’re in your price.
Screen type mix
Standard 18/14 is the base. Each upgrade panel of no-see-um, pet, privacy or solar screen adds to the total. See the screen types guide.
Doors and kick plates
A worn closer or dented kick plate is cheapest to fix on the same visit as the screen work.
Access to the backyard
Narrow side gates, fenced lots and landscaping beds along the cage slow the job down. We plan for that on the estimate, not on the day.
What Every Gainesville Pool Cage Repair Price Includes
One number, nothing tacked on later.
A low quote that leaves out spline, doors or disposal is not really low. So every written price we hand you spells out the same things, whether the job is one torn panel in Tioga or a two-story mansard rescreen in Haile Plantation.
- The screen named by type and mesh, such as 18/14 charcoal fiberglass, and which walls or roof bays get it
- New spline in every channel we rescreen, sized to the channel
- Doors listed, with closer, hinge or latch work priced as its own line
- Frame repairs itemized, so you can see what is screening and what is structure
- Upgrade panels of no-see-um, pet, privacy or solar screen counted one by one
- Old screen, spline and scraps hauled away and the deck swept
- A note on whether a permit or HOA approval applies before structural work
The drive out to Newberry, Alachua, Archer or High Springs is built into the written price, and the estimate itself is free. If something hidden turns up once the old panels come off, you hear about it and approve it before we do any extra work. After a storm, we photograph the cage and itemize the repair so the same paperwork works for your insurer. See storm damage pool cage repair for how that visit runs.
Pool Cage Rescreening Price Questions
Pricing questions, answered.
Those ranges show where most Gainesville jobs land. Your number reflects your actual enclosure: how many panels it has, how tall the walls and roof are, which screen types you pick, whether braces or doors need work first, and how easy it is to get equipment to the backyard. Once we have seen it, the figure on paper does not move.
No. Coming out to look costs nothing, in town or in the four nearby towns on our list. We bring screen samples, look over the frame and door, and give you the price in writing before anything is scheduled.
Up front, yes. If the rest of the screen is healthy, a handful of panels is the smart buy. If the screen is gray and brittle everywhere, you will likely pay for more patches every season, and a full rescreen often costs less over a few years.
It depends on your policy. Some Florida policies limit or exclude screened enclosures, and hurricane claims usually carry their own deductible. We photograph the damage and itemize the repair so you can file with clear paperwork if you choose to.
No. One torn panel or a door closer is a real job to us. Tacking a door fix or a couple of upgrade panels onto a bigger visit usually costs less than booking it as its own visit.
