ABOUT SCREENMOBILE

Founded in 1980, Screenmobile is the original mobile screen repair and installation franchise. What began with basic window screen repair has expanded into a broad menu of services, including patio enclosures, motorized screens, sun control products, pet-resistant screens, and custom solutions for today’s homeowners. More than four decades later, Screenmobile is a nationally recognized brand with more than 120 locations operating in 30+ states. Built around a truck-and-trailer mobile workshop, each franchise is operated as a home-based business, allowing owners to measure, manufacture, and install screens on-site, often in a single visit.

Screenmobile benefits from long-standing demand and timely market conditions. Homeowners continue to invest in their properties, especially in outdoor living spaces, energy-efficiency upgrades, and comfort-focused improvements. Screens are a practical necessity in many climates, and they require ongoing repair, replacement, and customization.

At the same time, consumers increasingly prefer service providers who come to them. Screenmobile's mobile, on-site model meets that expectation while keeping overhead low. Without the burden of a brick-and-mortar location or large inventory, franchise owners can launch quickly and scale at a manageable pace - often opening within a few months of signing their agreement.

With limited direct competition and services that apply to nearly every residential neighborhood, Screenmobile offers a compelling opportunity for entrepreneurs looking to enter home services with an established, scalable system.

Screenmobile’s defining feature is its mobile workshop, which also acts as a branded trailer and strong marketing tool in its local community. Each franchise is equipped to fabricate custom screens on-site, reducing errors, eliminating return visits, and delivering faster service than traditional screen companies.

The brand also stands out for the depth of its service offerings. Beyond windows and door screens, franchisees can expand into motorized and large-format screens, patio and porch enclosures, solar shading, security products, pergolas, awnings, and hurricanes or story systems - allowing them to tailor services to local climate and market demand.

Operationally, the model is designed to stay simple. Materials are purchased as needed, which helps control costs during slower periods, and jobs are typically completed in one visit.

Screenmobile has earned national recognition for its longevity and performance in franchising. The brand has appeared on industry rankings from Franchise Times and Entrepreneur for 28 consecutive years, showing consistent brand strength. With more than 40 years in business, a recognizable brand, and a system designed for efficiency and growth, Screenmobile continues to stand out as an established opportunity in the home services space.

The $480 billion home services industry remains one of the most resilient categories in franchising. Aging housing stock, rising renovation spending, and a preference for professional installation all contribute to steady demand. Screens are not a luxury item. They are functional components of homes that need regular maintenance and replacement. As homeowners expand patios, porches, and outdoor living areas, Screenmobile franchisees are well-positioned to capture both routine service calls and larger project work. 

Screenmobile looks for franchise owners who value quality work, reliable service, and strong community relationships. Prior experience in screen repair or home improvement is not required. Many successful owners start with no industry background.

The ideal owner enjoys hands-on work, likes being outdoors, and takes pride in delivering a finished product that customers can immediately see and appreciate. Organization, punctuality, and professionalism are just as important as technical skill.

Screenmobile also appeals to entrepreneurs seeking more control over their time. With defined business hours and the flexibility to build at their own pace, franchisees can create a schedule that supports both business goals and family life.

“I was amazed at the number of customers that wanted screen work and how rewarding and satisfying it is to own your own business and seeing how happy the customers are.”

Brandon James, Franchise Owner — Broken Arrow, Oklahoma

“The corporate team is amazing to work with. They’re always there, always helpful, and always with a smile.”

- Stephanie and Rino Dunatov, Franchise Owners — Demarest, New Jersey
