Screen Rooms in Baxley, GA for Year-Round Outdoor Living
With 166 mosquito days a year and summer highs pushing nearly 90 degrees, screen rooms in Baxley, GA give Appling County homeowners a way to actually use their outdoor space instead of retreating inside. Eicher's Pro Vinyl has been building screen room enclosures across southeast Georgia since 1998, and we know exactly what it takes to make one hold up in this climate.
Baxley Summers Are Long. Your Porch Should Work Harder Than the Bugs Do.
Appling County averages 166 mosquito days per year, and that number does not account for sand gnats, which show up in force any time the air goes still. A properly built screen room enclosure puts a barrier between your family and all of it, without blocking the breeze or the view of the tree canopy that Baxley is known for.
We use 20/20 gnat-resistant screens on our enclosures. Standard window screen has openings large enough for gnats to pass right through. The tighter 20/20 weave stops them while still allowing airflow, which matters a lot when the cooling degree days for this area hit 2,638 annually. You want air moving, just not insects.
- Aluminum framing that does not rot, warp, or attract termites (termite risk in Appling County is rated Very Heavy)
- 20/20 gnat-resistant screen panels standard
- Configurations to fit existing slabs, decks, or new footings
- Designed to handle Baxley’s moderate hurricane exposure and 42.7 mph wind events
The goal is a space you can use from early spring through late fall without fighting the outdoors every time you step out.
Protecting Home Value in a Market Where Most Houses Were Built Before 1985
The median home in Baxley was built around 1982, which means a lot of local houses are running on original porches, slabs, and outdoor structures that have been through four decades of Georgia weather. Adding a screen room to one of these homes is a practical investment, not just a comfort upgrade.
With a median home value of $83,200 and a homeownership rate of 73 percent, most people in Appling County own the house they live in. That means upgrades stay with you and build equity over time rather than going to a landlord. A screen room adds usable square footage and a selling point that buyers notice, especially in a region where outdoor living is part of daily life.
Eicher’s Pro Vinyl backs every installation with a 5-year workmanship warranty, plus manufacturer warranties on materials. If something is not right with how we built it, we come back and fix it. That matters on a home that may already have some age on it, because the last thing you need is a new addition creating new problems.
- Our crews are employees, not subcontractors. The same people who quote your job build it.
- We have been doing this in southeast Georgia since 1998.
- Licensed and insured in Georgia.

More Living Space Without the Cost of a Full Addition
A screen room gives your family a genuine third space: not quite indoors, not fully outdoors. In Baxley, where the tree canopy is dense and the afternoon light comes in soft through the pines, that kind of space gets used. Reading, meals, hobbies, morning coffee, watching rain move across the yard without getting soaked. The 37.7 inches of annual rainfall here sounds like a lot until you are sitting dry under a solid roof panel listening to it hit the screens.
Screen room enclosures cost significantly less than a conditioned addition and do not require the same level of permitting in most cases. You get the square footage without the full construction timeline or price tag.
Financing is available with no money down, and we offer 5-year, 7-year, and 10-year payment plans, plus a 1-year same-as-cash option. Military and senior citizen discounts apply. We will come to your home, measure the space, and give you a straight estimate with no pressure to decide on the spot.

What Baxley Homeowners Get Out of a Screen Room After Year One
The first summer is usually the one that makes people glad they did it. By the time June arrives and the mosquitoes are thick enough to hear from across the yard, having a screened space already built means you are using it instead of planning it.
Homeowners in Appling County who add a screen room enclosure typically find the space takes on a life of its own. It becomes the place where the kids do homework in the afternoon, where the weekend cookout moves after the food is ready, where the dog sleeps on hot evenings. It is not a specialty room. It is just part of how the house works.
Hardiness Zone 9a means Baxley winters are mild enough that a screened room stays usable well into December and opens back up in February. You are looking at nine to ten months of comfortable use out of a single investment. That is a strong return for a structure that requires almost no ongoing maintenance and carries a workmanship warranty behind it.
Frequently Asked Questions
What warranty comes with a screen room built by Eicher's Pro Vinyl in Baxley?
Every screen room we install in Baxley carries a 5-year workmanship warranty on the installation itself. That covers how the structure was built, not just the materials. Manufacturer warranties apply to the individual components as well. If something fails because of how we built it, we return and correct it at no charge to you.
Does the warranty cover storm or wind damage to the screen room?
The 5-year workmanship warranty covers defects in how the enclosure was constructed, including framing connections and screen installation. Wind or storm damage falls under your homeowner's insurance policy. We build to handle Baxley's moderate hurricane exposure and recorded wind events up to 42.7 mph, which gives the structure a solid baseline. We are happy to walk you through what the warranty covers before you commit.
How long does the warranty last on the screen panels specifically?
Screen panels are covered under both the manufacturer warranty on the material and our 5-year workmanship warranty for the installation. We use 20/20 gnat-resistant screen, which is a heavier weave than standard screen and tends to hold up better over time. If a panel fails due to a manufacturing defect or installation issue within the warranty period, we replace it.
If I sell my Baxley home, does the warranty transfer to the new owner?
Warranty transferability depends on the specific terms of each manufacturer's coverage. Our 5-year workmanship warranty is tied to the installation address. We recommend discussing transferability with us at the time of your estimate so you have a clear picture, especially if you are adding a screen room as part of a pre-sale improvement. It is a reasonable question and we will give you a straight answer.
What happens if there is a problem with the screen room after the warranty period ends?
After the 5-year workmanship warranty expires, repairs are billed as standard service work. Because we use quality aluminum framing and 20/20 screen panels, most enclosures in this climate have very few issues after the first few years. We have been in business since 1998, so we are not going anywhere. If something needs attention, call us at (912) 588-0061 and we will take a look.
