Rescreen a Porch: 2 Years Later Update

Mother Daughter Projects was conceived from an off-handed comment from me (Vicki) during the rescreening of Steph’s porch two years ago. The screening of the porch was one of the last large home repair projects that needed to be completed after Steph closed on her house. Because she had been burned by the installers of her carpet and vinyl planking flooring, she was reluctant to hire this out. She did the research and decided it was a project we could tackle ourselves.

Two years later, we are happy to report that all is holding tight even through a couple of high winds storms here in Tallahassee, FL over that period of time. 

In the video above, we share a couple of updates on the screening project. Check it out!

We had to make a repair to the screen door after someone fell through the door in a heated water ballon game (no one got badly hurt). We just used some leftover screen we had stored in the attic.

Spline and a spline mouse make this a very doable project for a homeowner.
See how it all started in our first video on how to re-screen a porch!

I always use "round spline"! Who the heck told you it was incorrect? LOL Hey, have you ever thought about doing a video on these items? Installing a garbage disposal; installing a screen door; fixing those stupid little windows on a garage door (you can tell I have this problem). Great stuff - really enjoy watching!
