Palmetto is close enough that we treat it like a regular route, not a “maybe we can get up there.” Over the Top Screens is based in Bradenton at 2901 42nd St W — south of the river, a short run to Palmetto, Ellenton, and the rest of north Manatee. We repair lanai screens, window screens, sliding glass doors, patio screening, pool cages, and aluminum from a family-owned shop. Jared Freddes, master craftsman, over 20 years in business and 25 years in the trade. No subcontractors. Jared tells you exactly what needs fixing and what does not, and does not try to upsell you. That is the way we work on this side of the county too. Call 941-414-0077 · Request a free estimate The old site sat this content on `/palmetto-fl/`.

What Palmetto houses throw at us
North Manatee housing is a mix: older block homes with original sliders, manufactured homes with odd window sizes, and plenty of lanais that have been patched with tape since the last storm. We do not need the house to be new. We need a true opening and a straight story about what failed. Lanais. Sun and storms. Spline that dried out. A pet-sized hole that became a highway. Lanai screen repair is the usual call. Sliding glass doors. Sand in the track, flat rollers, a lock that missed when the door dropped. Sliding glass door repair. Windows. Missing, bent, or rescreened with the wrong spline. Window screen repair — we build to the opening, including sizes a retail kit will not hit. Patios still unscreened. Patio screen installation. Pool cages and aluminum. Less common than Lakewood Ranch, still a regular job. Pool screen repair and aluminum screen enclosures. Pet doors belong in the conversation if the same panel keeps dying.
Materials, in plain Palmetto language
- Fiberglass — what most of these lanais and windows already have; good airflow, fair price
- Pet mesh — if the dog or cat is the contractor you did not hire
- No-see-um — tighter mesh when the gnats own the canal or the field behind the house
- Aluminum mesh / aluminum frames — when the opening needs more than a pretty stretch
We bring the right spline. Wrong spline is why a weekend DIY job is flapping by the following weekend.
Honest quotes, on purpose
Palmetto owners can smell a hustle. We do not pad a three-panel rescreen into a full enclosure. We do not scare you with a storm pitch. We look at the job, we price the panels and the hardware, and we tell you what can wait. Fully insured. Free estimates. Most Palmetto work is scheduled the same week. If you only need two window screens, you only get two window screens. If the slider is the real problem and the screen is a symptom, we will say that too.
