I’m in a five year old house that is brick veneer, Hardiplank siding, and PVC or aluminum trim everywhere, and vinyl windows. It has required zero maintenance to date other than cleaning, which I need to do.
Except for the painted, treated pine screen porch. I’ve proposed a more durable screen porch enclosure to the missus, but she insists on her “old school” screen porch, like she grew up with.
There are 136 of these lame little hex head sheet-metal style screws to be removed (and then replaced) to take out all thirteen panels of screening to scrape, prep, and paint the wood, then replace the 13 panels of screening.
I suppose I could hire it out, but it has looked like crap for a year or so, and I’d like to redo this with something with a finish more impervious to the elements.
Suggestions?
