Title: concertina fly screen
Post by: raysun on August 18, 2017, 21:04:13 PM
Evening all. We have a patio door concertina fly screen which is about 7 feet by 8.   The fine threadlike cord that runs across  is broken in a few places which makes it difficult to close or open.  Is there anyone in the area that fixes this type of screen.
thanks.

Yes Lifestyle enclosures, we had same problem but due to the quote to repair , which was outrageous, we took it out and built a sliding door with flyscreen panels, works better and a third of cost.

Thanks for that. If i cant get it repaired at a reasonable price I will make an effort to take  one half of it apart and see if i can thread some new cord through it.  It is already on sliders  so maybe your idea would be a good alternative. Its just that i like these ones and they  were expensive

Don't panic, we had the same problem. We had our plisses supplied & fitted by Lifestyle who buy them in and are quite inferior in construction with a design flaw. String went, 250€ to repair as have to be sent back to Company by Lifestyle. ANSWER- Mark of Screens2fit who actually builds his own. 80€ & brilliant job. Mob 673 411 362. By all means tell him that Dr. Bob Lyons of Mojacar Playa recommended him. Great chap. He is on fb I believe.
Best Wishes,

If you have no luck, go and see Balthazar, opposite Sola's on the  road out of Zurgena, he'll be able to help

Thanks Bob and Sandra for the contact details and recommendation for Mark at Screens2fit.
We had a major issue with our screens, Mark attended very quickly and exactly on time, took them away , brought them back within 2 days (again exactly on time), and had done a fantastic repair - he also gave them a full and thorough clean and they look like new !! He also gave us a solution and sound advise for our other screens.
As Bob states, I would highly recommend Mark , he is very professional, his work is excellent and he is very prompt.
Thanks Mark - Brilliant Job  !!
