What is Spring Like in The Villages Community® Florida?

If you have ever heard of The Villages Community®, Florida, you have probably heard they have gorgeous weather there pretty much all year long. While the weather is usually much milder than northern states, The Villages Community® still experiences fluctuations in temperatures in each season. Springtime is usually a much celebrated season in the Sunshine State because of the stunning sunny days and the warm Spring breeze. However, cooler days are still a very real possibility.

There's an interesting quote about the weather in Florida: "there is no such thing as bad weather here, only different types of good weather". In The Villages Community® Florida, it's common in the Springtime months to have a full week of 80's and 90's, followed by a couple days of weather in the 50's and 60's. As Floridians, we know that we could wake up "freezing" with temps in the 40's and by noon, we're putting away the sweater for flip flops.

Depending on the West's El Nino situation, Florida's wind and stormy season (beginning in the Spring) could be affected, causing the regularity of afternoon storms, almost always followed by more sunshine in our fabulous "Sunshine State."

When it comes to how this season affects your Hide-Away Screen, the Florida Spring months mean it's time to start preparing your screens for summer. With the Spring and Summer months, bugs increase, humidity increases, and rain increases, causing a lot of Floridians to simply keep their windows and doors closed and the outside world of fresh air – outdoors.

However, if you're proud owner of a Hide-Away Screen from Michele's, Spring means the ushering in of the bug-free, rain-free fresh air your screen provides.

Spring cleaning your screen is super simple. Cleaning the mesh itself involves using a mild detergent (like dish soap) and a soft brush (nothing metallic). Then spray a grease-less silicone to the tracks for lubrication (avoid using lubricants that contain petroleum distillates or mineral spirits). And we recommend waiting for everything to dry before storing the screen back into its housing.

Once your simple "spring cleaning" is complete, grab a refreshing beverage of your choice, kick back and enjoy the beautiful fresh Spring breeze in The Villages Community®. For more information and a free quote, contact the team at Michele's Hide-Away Screens & Awnings.

Very professional and helpful staff. They showed up when scheduled and took care of every little detail. Our newly screened porch is gorgeous and we love our huge new hideaway screen door! I highly recommend Michelle‘s Hideaway screens for any of your automatic screen door needs.

We used Michele's to repair our hide away screen door on our front door. Our door required maintenance to work properly. I want to point out that any issues it had was probably caused by either the previous pets who resided here, and/or dirt and debris from the weather. Probably both to be fair. We really like the door for how it is basically hidden and mostly sight until in use. No it is not the most rugged design, but that is the trade off for this hidden convenience. Honestly, I chose Michele's because they origanally installed the hide away screen door in the first place. We were not the residents at that time, but had paperwork informing us of this. So we chose Michele's mainly for that reason. Be that as it may, Michele's scheduled us an appointment in a very reasonable time frame, that worked for us. it's been a while, but I think the person who made the service call, was named Bob. Although I could be wrong. Anyway, I have no complaints as to the quality of his work. He checked out the door to see what the issue was. As I expected, it really needed a re-screening. The screen door was removed and taken back to Michele's shop for a new screening. Another appointment was scheduled in fairly quick order for re-install. At that time, the door was reinstalled and tested. Much better. I will say that Michele's seemed to do a good job in all aspects between getting me an appointment that worked for me, to the fairly quick repair and reinstall. Even the time of both visits to our home was efficient and quick. As such, both times didn't have us waiting around to any long extent. The price for this service wasn't what I would call inexpensive. But to be fair, I don't feel that it was outrageous and I was taken advantage of in any way. And they were up front with the costs involved for just a service call, and again before the door was removed because it required more than just a service call. All in all, Michele's did a good job and I have no complaints to speak of. Like with anything, yes I would have preferred the cost was less. But I do feel that in my opinion, the price was probably fairly reasonable considering the prompt service and repair. So yes I would recommend and use Michele's again if the need arose.

We love our new screen. Bob came out to install it on time and was very professional and courteous. Bob took his time and insured it was installed perfectly. He also made sure it worked flawlessly before he left. Much better quality than the ones they sell at the big box stores. Highly recommend this company for any screens you are interested in getting for your home. Our only regret is not getting this done sooner.
