Marietta Window Replacement provides professional window screens in Marietta, GA for residential and commercial properties across Cobb County and northwest metro Atlanta. Every spring somebody calls this office and asks whether tighter screens will keep the pollen out. The answer is no, and it is worth explaining properly rather than selling you something that will not work.
Standard insect screen is an eighteen by sixteen mesh, which leaves openings on the order of a millimeter across. Oak pollen grains are around twenty micrometers. Pine grains, the yellow ones that coat everything on Marietta driveways in late March, are roughly fifty to sixty. A millimeter opening is twenty to fifty times wider than the particle. A finer no-see-um mesh cuts airflow and daylight measurably and still catches none of it.
What actually reduces indoor pollen is filtration and air sealing: a MERV 13 filter in a system that can handle the pressure drop, sealed return ducts, and windows that close against a compression gasket rather than a wiping seal. Two of those three are not screen work, and one is not window work at all. Saying so costs us a rescreen order every spring, and it beats an April call from somebody standing there sneezing.
Screens do have a job and they do it well. They keep out mosquitoes coming off the creek bottoms, wasps looking for a soffit and the occasional squirrel, and they let you use the two genuinely pleasant months this climate offers without closing the house up.
For material we default to charcoal fiberglass mesh in an aluminum frame. Charcoal reads darker and disappears better from inside than the gray or silver alternatives. Aluminum frames outlast vinyl-corner frames and can be re-splined half a dozen times. For dog and cat households, a heavy vinyl-coated polyester mesh is worth the premium; ordinary screen loses to one determined animal.
Pine pollen does affect screens in a way worth planning around. It coats the mesh, gets rained on, and dries into a yellow film that cuts airflow and looks terrible. Order frames you can actually remove from the inside, and wash them with a hose once in May. Fixed screens that require a ladder never get cleaned, which is how they end up half-blocked.
Solar screens are the last question and our answer is elevation-specific. On a west or south wall with no shade, an exterior solar screen fabric will cut a real share of solar gain and is a cheap upgrade. On a north wall, or on any wall under the mature hardwood canopy that covers much of this county, it takes daylight you need and blocks heat that was never arriving. We will not install them there.
Rescreening is a small job and we schedule it as one. If you are having windows replaced, order the screens with the units and skip this page entirely. Rescreening a window you are about to take out is money you will watch go into a skip.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — compression gasket, interlocking meeting stile, fusion-welded corners, pultruded fiberglass, warm-edge spacer, polyamide thermal break — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Marietta and nearby communities including Smyrna, Kennesaw, Acworth, Powder Springs.

Materials, equipment and how we do window screens
The difference between window screens that lasts and window screens that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with compression gasket, interlocking meeting stile, fusion-welded corners, pultruded fiberglass, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Marietta job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of window work in Cobb County and northwest metro Atlanta means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Marietta Chooses Marietta Window Replacement
- ✓We put the air-leakage rating at the top of the quote. In a county with a short winter and a long humid summer, the gasket is the only specification that returns something in both seasons.
- ✓We measure the clear opening in every bedroom before quoting. On the wide, short openings of Marietta's 1960s ranches, an insert can drop the escape opening below the code minimum without anyone noticing.
- ✓We flash behind the brick. On veneer houses the head flashing has to lap the water-resistive barrier rather than get caulked to the first course, and we will tell you if the brick will not allow it.
- ✓We price the smaller job when the smaller job is right. Fogged sealed units get reglazed, dragging patio doors get rollers, and tired entry doors often get a weatherstrip kit rather than a new slab.
