Screens Across a Varied County
Middlesex County covers a huge range of homes. Cambridge and Somerville have dense blocks of triple-deckers and Victorian two-families, Newton and Lexington feature large colonials on tree-lined streets, Concord is known for historic homes surrounded by woods and farmland, and Framingham and Marlborough offer everything from mid-century ranches to newer developments. What they share is a lot of windows, and nearly every one has a screen collecting dust, pollen and cobwebs.
Our screen cleaning and repairs service brings those screens back to working condition, whether you have a dozen windows or several dozen spread across three floors.
Our Screen Cleaning Process
Screens are taken down, cleaned on both sides, rinsed and dried before going back up. While they are out, we wipe the frames and clean the window tracks, which tend to fill with dead insects, grit and needles. The difference is especially obvious in older Middlesex County homes with original wood-frame windows, where tracks can accumulate years of debris.
- Gentle washing of mesh and frames on both sides
- Window tracks and sills cleaned while screens are removed
- Rescreening of torn or worn mesh
- Careful reinstallation so screens sit snug
Repairing Worn and Damaged Screens
A ripped screen does little to keep insects out. Mesh tears from pets, children, hail or simply age, and the spline that holds it in place can dry out and shrink. Our team can rescreen existing frames with fresh mesh, often a far simpler fix than ordering replacements. If a frame is warped or broken beyond repair, we will tell you so you can decide on next steps.
Screen work pairs perfectly with window cleaning, since the screens must come off anyway for glass to be cleaned properly. Booking both together means freshly cleaned windows are never covered by dusty screens again.
Middlesex County Communities We Serve
Busy Bee is based in Northborough, right on the edge of Middlesex County, and our crews work throughout the area. Learn more about local conditions on our Middlesex County service area page. We regularly clean and repair screens in Framingham, where wooded neighborhoods produce heavy pollen each spring, and in Cambridge, where multi-family buildings often have dozens of screens to maintain.
Spring is the busiest season for screen service, as homeowners prepare to open windows for the warmer months. Fall is a good time too, when screens can be cleaned before being stored or left in place for winter.
From Concord to Cambridge, screen estimates are free, the crew is insured and no agreement is required. More than 400 customer reviews averaging five stars tell us the details matter. Texting a few photos of damaged screens to (508) 715-6616 is a quick way to start.

Screen Cleaning & Repairs FAQs
Do you clean screens for multi-family buildings in Middlesex County?
Yes. We clean and repair screens for triple-deckers, two-families and apartment buildings in cities like Cambridge and Somerville.
Can you rescreen an old wooden screen frame?
In many cases, yes. We replace the mesh on existing frames and will let you know if a frame is too damaged to reuse.
Should I clean screens at the same time as windows?
It is the most efficient approach, since screens must be removed for proper window cleaning anyway.
