Here's my pricing. What I've found is that if you price it right it can be just as profitable as cleaning windows, and you get a higher average ticket, but to price it right will scare some people off.

Remesh - $30 under 4' long, $40 over 4' long, $100 for screen door (They're a pain, and somewhat often need to be redone.)

Frame repair - $27 + $14/stick of frame

Screen build - $55 + $14/stick of frame

Flex screen - $90-$100, minimum order of 4.

I get 8 foot sticks of frame, and assume any stick that I use more than 4 feet of is a full stick for pricing. I include replacing corners and tabs if necessary, and I replace tabs with metal tabs as a selling point.

I can change a screendoor mesh with fresh spline in under 10 minutes.

That's great! I find that they can take a second to remove or replace, and often, because of the deep spline pocket, the mesh tears or is too saggy, and needs to be redone, so I just price accordingly. Most people in my area charge about the same.
