What You Probably Like Most About Your Covered Deck
Shade and Shelter from the Elements
Summer days can get HOT! Having a structure that breaks the direct sunlight on your deck can keep it much cooler, and more accommodating for more of those warm season days and nights! A covered outdoor space can also provide shelter from rain, snow, and help minimize the amount of debris that could fall directly on this space.
Atmosphere
Having a covered porch, patio, or deck gives your space shape, and can help frame an environment that feels more intimate or secluded from a yard or neighbors.
Fireplace & TV
Many choose to install a gas fireplace in their covered deck, for a cozy aesthetic, a bold design statement, and perhaps a place to hang a television to watch while relaxing.
Entertaining
Covered outdoor spaces provide a great atmosphere for entertaining, day or night, as lights, fans, and speakers can be installed to extend the time of day and type of entertaining that can be done on a patio or deck.

Dust and Debris and Wind Breakage
Apart from pests, Screeneze also acts as a barrier against dust, debris, and other pollutants that can ruin your outdoor experience. Whether it’s windy days or nearby construction, the screen keeps unwanted particles from entering your space.

If your outdoor living area is prone to breezes and wind in certain seasons throughout the year, Screeneze can help by acting as a windbreak. When Screeneze is installed, it pulls screen quite tight, and can help keep sudden gusts and strong winds from interrupting dinner or conversations.

Bang For Your Buck – The Cost Breakdown
Screeneze is a very economical solution to screening in your outdoor space. No two projects are alike, and quoting an exact number for install cost can be a moving target based on these three factors:
Length of Opening Perimeter
The overall length of all sides of a window can vary, and should be considered when creating a budget for a project. The cost for track is approximately $5/linear foot of perimeter for each opening.
Size of Opening Area
This aspect of your project cost can be determined by the cost of screen used to cover your opening. Our Tuffscreen offerings are generally priced at a little less than $1/square foot – for the best screen product available.
Shape of Opening
Very few decks are the same dimensions all around, so if you have a fancy deck with arches, or large openings with gabled cedar beams, or unique architectural details, the type of Screeneze used for your project may require additional hardware like plinth corners or Flatbar to ensure your screen can cover each opening on your deck seamlessly.
Overall Cost
All said and done, general estimations would indicate that a deck, porch, or patio installed with Screeneze and Tuffscreen product can be done for approximately $3.50/square foot, based on the average cost of materials for an 8’ x 8’ (96” x 96”) opening.
If you are looking to have these products installed for you, we recommend reaching out to local contractors. We recommend obtaining quotes from contractors who are expert Screeneze installers.
