This is a real motorized screen project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated October 7, 2023. Total project cost: $9,822.
Mc Cordsville homeowners planning a motorized screen installation in the fall of 2023 can use this $9,822 estimate as a real-world reference. The scope: 3 units (~9×9 ft), White frame, Solar fabric.
At $9,822, this project sits in the 54th percentile of the 5,369 motorized screen estimates we've analyzed — a "average" market position. The national average for comparable work is $12,112, putting this estimate 19% below the typical motorized screen cost. Within Indiana specifically, the average across 184 comparable projects is $11,730 — making this estimate 16% below the local norm. That works out to roughly $38.77 per square foot of coverage.
Specifications include White frame, Solar fabric, Suntex 90 mesh, Motor control. Project scope (3 units) is larger than the typical 2.5-unit motorized screen project. Per-unit cost on this estimate is $3,274, below the $4,845 national per-unit average.
For context, Indiana homeowners installing a screen system are working with humid summers, cold winters, and significant severe-storm activity. That shapes what specs actually matter: wind rating (moderate), UV-stable fabrics (moderate), and corrosion-resistant hardware where salt-air or humidity is present.The Solar selection on this estimate is a reasonable match for humid continental conditions — solution-dyed acrylics handle Indiana's sun (moderate) better than vinyl, and shed humidity well. Motor controls are a sensible spec given the wind exposure here (moderate) — retraction during severe weather is the single biggest predictor of long-term screen system life. Estimating in the fall of 2023 is typical for Indiana — most screen system installations book in the shoulder months, when installer availability is better and material lead times shorten to 3–6 weeks.
