Summer nights in San Jose, CA: pleasant, temperate, calming, breezy… Don’t we all love the feeling of an August night’s breeze as it floats through our windows and across our pillow at night? Isn’t it nostalgic and relaxing to hear the winds outside, along with the crickets and the frogs?
These pleasantries can be quickly halted the moment an annoying insect wafts in with the summer night’s breeze through an improperly functioning or torn window screen. Gr! The ruined evening! All you wanted was to sit back with a tea and a book or to converse with a friend in the kitchen about the evening’s events or to lie down and listen to the cicadas lull you to sleep—not mosquitos.
We get it. In fact, here at The Screen Shop, our beginnings (dating all the way back to 1945) are rooted in window screens! Our team knows exactly how important it is to the residents of this beautiful area to be connected to the outdoors without the nuisance of creepy-crawly things, and the benefits extend beyond keeping insects out!
