Summers here run long and bright, and west-facing glass takes the worst of it from early afternoon until sundown. Our solar sunscreens stop that heat and UV at the outside of the window, before it ever turns your living room into a greenhouse.
Blinds and interior shades only help after the sun has already come through the glass. Sunscreen on windows works earlier in the chain, which is why it makes such a noticeable difference in a Granite Bay home during a stretch of triple-digit days.
A solar sunscreen is a tightly woven exterior mesh set in a frame that fits your existing window opening. Depending on the weave we choose with you, it blocks a large share of incoming solar heat and UV while you still see out clearly from inside.
We are a mobile workshop, so we come to you. Our van carries the frame stock, mesh and tooling to measure every opening on site and build your sunscreens right there in your driveway, which means no guessing at dimensions and no second trip.
That matters more than people expect on Granite Bay homes, where arched windows, tall great-room glass and oversized sliders rarely match a standard size. Measuring in person is the only way those come out right the first time.
Sunscreens sit on the outside of the house, so they are part of your elevation whether you planned it that way or not. We match frame color to your existing window frames or trim and pick a mesh shade that suits the look you want.
Darker mesh gives the best outward view and reads as almost invisible from the curb. Lighter mesh reflects a bit more heat but is more noticeable from outside. On a home near Folsom Lake or backing onto the golf course, most of our customers choose the darker weave to protect the view.
Windows are usually the starting point, not the whole job. If your patio bakes through the afternoon, an outdoor sun shade screen on the covered area turns unusable space into somewhere you actually sit in July.
We install manual and motorized screens for patios and outdoor rooms, and we handle straightforward exterior sun shade work across the region, including sun shades in Citrus Heights and the surrounding communities. A patio with shade on the west side buys you the whole evening back.
Screens are all we do. We have been building and installing them around Placer and Sacramento counties since 2011, and that focus shows up in the details: square frames, tight mesh tension, clean corner joints and hardware that holds up to years of Valley sun instead of chalking out in three seasons.
We are also an authorized dealer for a premium retractable screen line, and we service what we sell. You can read more about our team and how we work before you book anything.
Sunscreens are low maintenance, but mesh does eventually stretch, and pets, storms and stray branches take their toll. We rescreen existing frames on site, replace damaged frames, and handle window and door screen repairs in the same visit so you are not scheduling three separate appointments.
A rinse with a hose once or twice a year is generally all the upkeep they need. If a frame gets bent or a corner separates, we can usually fix it in your driveway rather than hauling anything away.
If your home is fighting the afternoon sun, we can measure your windows and give you a straight answer on what solar sunscreens will do for it. We cover Granite Bay and the surrounding Placer County communities, and we bring the shop with us. Reach out to set up a visit and we will find a time that works.
