Verandas with Side Screens Installers Serving Pontefract
The single biggest complaint we hear from Pontefract customers who have a veranda without screens is wind. The roof deals with rain fine; wind whips underneath and takes the temperature straight down. Zip-track cassettes fix that in a day.
What we usually build here
creating a three-season outdoor dining room off a Pontefract kitchen
enclosing a hot tub veranda for winter use
shielding a west-facing veranda from afternoon glare and wind
The proof points that matter
- transparent PVC screens keep the view; mesh screens cut glare
- heaters and lights wired to a single remote alongside screens
- screens retract fully into a sealed cassette when not in use
- wind sensor set to the specific exposure of your Pontefract garden

Frequently asked questions
Can screens be added later?
Yes — the veranda posts and beams are engineered to take screen loads from day one. Retrofitting on a Pontefract install we did years ago is a one-day return visit.
Do you cover Leeds?
Yes — Leeds is 16 miles from Pontefract and installs on the same weekly run.
Can I operate screens from an app?
Yes — remote handset is standard, Wi-Fi app control is a small upgrade. Popular on holiday-home installs across Pontefract and the coast.
Are the screens waterproof?
Water-resistant, not waterproof — they shed rain in ordinary weather but aren't a substitute for a fully glazed side. Combining with a glass roof is how Pontefract customers get the three-season effect.
Do zip-track screens really block Pontefract wind?
Yes — the fabric locks into a track top and bottom, so wind hits a taut membrane rather than a flapping curtain. Combined with the veranda roof it cuts effective wind chill by roughly two thirds on Pontefract plots.
