Having a pool enclosure or an outdoor living space with screen features is an added bonus. However, if you’re unable to keep it clean, it starts to become more of a nuisance than a blessing. A common mistake homeowners make is letting their deck fall into a state of disrepair, and the same can happen if you don’t keep current with screen cleaning.
