Custom Window Screens in Georgina
Custom window screens are a core part of our Georgina work. The municipality's large stock of converted seasonal cottages, properties that began as summer homes in the 1950s and 1960s and have been modified over decades of ownership, means that non-standard window openings are the rule rather than the exception in Keswick South, Jackson's Point, and the Historic Lakeshore Communities. Screen Express specializes in custom window screens for Georgina homes, measuring and fabricating each screen on-site to the precise dimensions of the opening.
The converted cottage housing type is specific to Georgina in a way that does not exist anywhere else in our service area. These properties started as modest seasonal structures with standard windows, but over 40 or 50 years of use and renovation, windows have been replaced, enlarged, repositioned, and added in locations that were never originally openings. The result is a home that may have 10 or 12 windows of 10 or 12 different dimensions. The previous screens, if any exist, are a mix of repurposed units, improvisations, and replacements from different decades that fit loosely or not at all. Custom on-site fabrication is the only way to screen these properties properly. Heritage homes in Sutton and the older parts of Keswick have a similar issue: period window proportions from the 1880s–1960s that no modern catalogue screen will fit.

Why Georgina Homeowners Choose Screen Express
Every custom screen we build in Georgina starts with a precise on-site measurement of each opening. We cut aluminum frame stock, install corners, stretch mesh, and seat spline on location so you can verify the fit before we leave. For lakefront and waterfront properties, we use heavy-duty fibreglass mesh as a standard baseline, and 20×20 fine mesh is available for any opening facing the water. For converted cottages with multiple irregular openings, we carry enough frame stock and mesh to complete the full property in a single visit in most cases.

Spring Lakefront Screen Replacement: Jackson's Point
· 2024Problem
A converted cottage on the Lake Simcoe waterfront in Jackson's Point had screens that had not been replaced since the property was converted to year-round use in the early 2000s. The aluminum frames were corroded at the corners, the mesh had oxidized to a grey-brown colour, and the spline had cracked and pulled free at every lower corner. The owners also reported mayfly insects entering through closed windows during the May hatch.
Solution
Replaced all 9 window screens and the patio door screen. All frames were rebuilt in new aluminum stock. The existing frames were too corroded to re-use. Mesh: 20×20 fine mesh in charcoal on all lakeside-facing windows and the patio door; heavy-duty 18×16 fibreglass on the remaining windows. The owners reported the May hatch was fully blocked the following spring.
Muskoka Room Installation: Keswick South
· 2025Problem
A year-round home in Keswick South with a covered deck adjacent to a low-lying area near the Cook's Bay shoreline had been unusable in the evening from May through August. The owners had tried torches, fans, and sprays without lasting effect. The covered deck structure was already in place with posts and a roof.
Solution
Installed a full-perimeter screen enclosure on the existing covered deck using commercial-grade aluminum framing and 20×20 fine mesh on all panels facing the water and low-lying side, 18×16 on the house-facing panels. Added a hinged screen door on the primary access side. The owners reported using the space comfortably through September.
