In MiraBay, where outdoor living is a way of life, well-maintained screens are more than a finishing touch… they’re essential. From pool cages to porches, they create the spaces where neighbors gather, families relax, and memories are made. When those screens need attention, residents turn to a trusted local and trusted name: VIP Screens & Repair.

Behind the business is a Tampa native who has spent more than two decades mastering his craft. After entering the screen industry in 2001, he dedicated nearly 20 years to one company before taking a leap of faith and launching his own business in 2019.

That leap wasn’t just about career growth… it was about family. A father of six, including four “bonus”  children -three of whom have autism - he approaches both life and business with deep purpose. “My family is everything to me,” he shares. “Everything I do is for them.”

At VIP Screens & Repair, the mission goes beyond installing durable screens. It’s about delivering an experience rooted in care, trust, and consistency. Every customer is treated like family, and every project - big or small - is handled with pride.

Services include rescreening for pool cages, patios, porches, and enclosures, as well as screen door replacements and hardware repairs. Whether it’s fixing rusted screws or completing a full rescreen, the goal is always the same: quality work paired with exceptional service.

And that attention to detail doesn’t go unnoticed.

One homeowner shared how their aging screened porch, over 40 years old, had become a growing concern. “Now it’s looking great, and the doors have never closed so smoothly,” she said. “I’m no longer worried about the next tropical storm. Honest, hardworking folks - I’m so glad we found them.”

Another client praised the team’s reliability and follow-through. “They showed up when they said they would, answered every question, and finished ahead of schedule. Even when I noticed a small issue later, it was fixed quickly. I’d highly recommend them.”

Like many small businesses, one of the biggest challenges has been visibility. Without large advertising budgets, growth has relied heavily on word of mouth and community connections.

That’s been a deliberate choice.

By focusing on consistent quality and genuine relationships, VIP Screens & Repair has built a strong reputation that continues to bring in new customers. Each satisfied homeowner becomes part of that story, helping the business grow in a meaningful and sustainable way.

As the company approaches its 7-year anniversary this June, it marks an important milestone - one that reflects resilience, dedication, and steady progress. “We’re proud of how far we’ve come,” he says. “But we truly feel like we’re just getting started.”

For VIP Screens & Repair, being part of the community means more than providing a service - it means giving back.

Through involvement with the Tampa Rough Riders, the business supports impactful organizations like Special Olympics and Make-A-Wish. From community outreach programs to delivering teddy bears to children in hospitals, these efforts reflect a genuine commitment to making a difference beyond the job site.

It’s a natural extension of the company’s core values: care, connection, and community.

Living in Florida means screens take a beating from sun, storms, and time. According to the experts, most screens last between 10 and 15 years.

Waiting too long can lead to higher costs. “A lot of people try to repair a few panels at a time,” he explains. “But over time, that can end up costing nearly double. A full rescreen, when needed, is usually more cost-effective and looks much better.”

In a community like MiraBay, trust matters. Residents value businesses that show up, follow through, and genuinely care—and that’s exactly what VIP Screens & Repair delivers.

It’s not just about screens. It’s about creating spaces where life happens, supporting a family-driven mission, and building relationships that last.

And that’s what truly makes them a standout partner in the community.
