Living in the Bay Area means cool evening breezes, salty coastal air, and—unfortunately—plenty of insects determined to share your living space. Quality window screens keep fresh air flowing while blocking pests and airborne debris. At CountBricks, we combine field-tested construction expertise with AI-driven estimating to make sure every San Francisco homeowner receives perfectly fitted, long-lasting screens without budget surprises.
Micro-Climates From fog-soaked Outer Sunset to sun-drenched Mission District, each neighborhood demands different screen materials and mesh densities.
Historic Architecture Victorian and Edwardian window frames require custom sizing and non-invasive installation methods to preserve original trim.
Salt Air Corrosion Homes near the bay need corrosion-resistant frames and hardware to avoid discoloration and premature failure.

Window screens do more than block insects. Fine-weave options reduce solar gain by up to 30%, lowering cooling costs during inland heat waves. They also filter out pollen and particulate matter, a growing concern during wildfire season. CountBricks advisors can model these savings inside your estimate, turning a simple upgrade into an energy conversation.
• Measuring the sash instead of the frame, leading to screens that rattle or fall out
• Using galvanized staples that corrode in salty air
• Over-tightening spring plungers on historic wood frames, causing split trim
• Forgetting airflow calculations when choosing ultra-fine mesh, resulting in stuffy rooms
CountBricks field technicians follow a 42-point checklist—available in your customer portal—to eliminate these mistakes before they occur.
