I'm trying to get an idea or recs on screening my patio/porch - its a rectangular opening within 6 feet of the pool, on the sides is the house walls, bottom is concrete floor and covered by the roof. The opening that needs to be screened is a rectangle 20 ft wide and 9 ft tall and also need a screen door on it. I cant find many companies, one quoted me 4K ! the other 2600, although still seems high, there's no curves, just plain rectangle...I know it might be more expensive than Florida, but still

You could probably do it yourself for less than $1000. You know how to operate a saw & screwdriver ?

Do you want it framed out with wood or metal? Any glass work or just all screens ? You need to research what you want before you get estimates.

Don't you think a metal framed enclosure with doors and possibly some glass work will be a lot more expensive than a simple wood and screen structure ?
