Question:

I am rescreening my patio using flat screen spline. I am having trouble getting the flat spline in the channel. Do you know what the trick is?

Answer:

You might spray first with a silicone lubricant. That usually does the trick.

In the interests of retaining credibility and in fairness to all, I cannot recommend prices, people nor companies for various projects.

Remember, even if you don’t do your own work around the house have to hire someone, you put yourself at a great advantage when you can intelligently discuss a project with the various trades people.
