Patio Screen Enclosures
What We Do for Austin Homeowners
A patio screen enclosure turns a covered patio into usable living space for more months of the year. It keeps out insects and debris, improves comfort with passive airflow, and protects furniture.
Dan White’s Screens & Things manufactures, installs, and repairs screen enclosures for residential properties in the Austin area.
Designed for Austin Homes Like Yours
Many Austin homeowners turn to a patio screen enclosure when they want a better way to use their outdoor space. If you find yourself in one of these situations, an enclosure may be the right fit:
- You already have a covered patio but need protection from insects.
- You want fresh air circulation without the expense or permanence of a full glass system.
- You prefer working with a local team that manufactures, installs, and repairs everything in-house.
Designed Around How You Live Outdoors
- Custom-built panels and doors: sized to fit your framing for a tight seal and clean sightlines.
- Mesh options, including insect and solar screens: choose visibility, shade, or added durability based on how you use the space.
- Structall framing components: durable systems designed for long-term outdoor performance.
- Local manufacturing and professional installation: one team builds, installs, and services your enclosure for consistent quality and support.
- Repair services for existing enclosures: extend the life of your current structure with screen and door repairs.

EXCELLENT Based on 64 reviews Vikram MuraliOctober 31, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doug is very professional. I needed to repair a screen and he got this done quickly. The quality of work looks great and price was also very reasonable. Highly recommend. Jim KaighinOctober 8, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had three damaged screens and they were super easy to work with and turned them around quickly and pricing seemed quite fair. It’s nice to still have local businesses to take care of things! Emily H.September 19, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doug and team did an amazing job! Great communication, amazing crew. Once parts were in build took a day- team was friendly and cleaned up. Would highly recommend! It's so great to sit out without bugs and critters!! Sarah TorresAugust 23, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just realized I never put in a review for Dan White’s screens and things, even though they did an amazing job on two different patios for us. One was small, one was a big involved three-wall project with two framed doors. But last night we had a furry visitor, and I was reminded what a great job they did installing heavy duty screening. This morning we gave that whole section a close inspection, and it’s in perfect shape still. I’m so relieved! alan dochertyJuly 30, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great work! This was a reconfigure project for the screens to accommodate a re-done back yard. It was on time on budget and looks much better than we expected. Seriously exceeded expectations! Andrew LiuJuly 30, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I dropped my old window screen on 6/27/25, and they replaced it by 7/8/25. Brandon HJuly 24, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience from start to finish with the screening of my porch. The estimate provided was reasonable and matched the final price. The quality of work is solid and only took roughly 2hrs for completion. Handy CheckJuly 11, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They have been here for years if you need a screen this is the only place to go!!! Carina ZamudioMay 28, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Doug White was the easiest thing I've done as a homeowner! I called to ask how the process worked, they sent people out to measure the windows, built them custom in about two weeks or less, and then installed them. Process was easy. They did great work. And now I can finally open my windows again!!! I wish I didn't put this off for so long! I'll definitely be recommending them in the future. I was a referral from Home Depot :)
