UV
Sun yellows and weakens the vinyl year after year. A clouded film that crackles to the touch is at end of life — the tear is only weeks away.
Gazebo specialty
Gazebo screen and clear vinyl: replaced on site, in your frames
A gazebo’s clear vinyl — MICA film — blocks the wind and holds warmth at both ends of the season. But UV yellows it, cold stiffens it, and one gust eventually tears it. Good news: it can be replaced without changing the panels or the structure, and it is our specialty.

Gazebo · MICAWhat wears the vinyl
Why the vinyl gives up
Cold
Below freezing, MICA turns brittle. A panel handled or shaken by winter wind splits at once, top to bottom.
Wind
Slack vinyl flaps like a sail. Every gust pulls at seams and grommets until it tears.

Common questions
The questions we hear on the phone, and their answers.
Free quote438-466-4094Does the whole panel need replacing?
Almost never. The vinyl is replaced in the existing frame, exactly like screen mesh. The frame is only replaced if it is bent or broken.
What is the difference between the vinyl and the screen?
The screen lets air through and stops insects; MICA vinyl is clear film that cuts the wind and holds warmth. Many gazebos use both depending on the season — we replace both.
What does it cost?
On assessment: the price depends on the number of panels and their dimensions. The quote is free, and a photo of your panels is often enough to price without a visit.
When is the right time to replace it?
Before the season you need it for: spring for summer, or late summer to stretch the fall. Vinyl fitted in mild weather tensions better and lasts longer.
1-year warranty on fabrication and installation. Damage caused by the client is not covered. Payment: Visa, MasterCard, Interac, Bank transfer.
