The Hooks family and the first patches

Screen Mend began with Brian Hooks and his daughters Lily and Emma trying to repair a screen. In Rob Merlino's December 11, 2013 interview with the family, Lily described developing the idea with her father, and Brian recalled experimenting with wax to make the patch adhere. After the repair lasted through the following year, they considered selling it.

Emma built the early website and sent samples to newspapers. Brian said press coverage brought an influx of orders in July 2012, after an initial year without sales. The family then applied to Shark Tank and taped their pitch in July 2013.

The Season 5 offer

The family appeared in Season 5, Episode 4, which aired October 11, 2013. They asked for $30,000 for 25% and accepted Lori Greiner's on-air offer of $30,000 for 50%. In the December interview, Brian said they had hoped to work with Lori.

The same interview gives a concrete early follow-up: Brian said Lori was looking for manufacturing, while the family cut material at a rented garage and packed orders. Greiner's own product page still features ScreenMend today.

Where the brand sits now

Spark Innovation includes Screenmend among its brands, and Walmart Business identifies Spark Innovation as the manufacturer of a Screenmend repair roll. The store linked by Spark offers the same Screenmend patch-and-roll range.

Screen Mend's current company value and any acquisition price are not publicly established.

Patches, rolls and applying the repair

The brand recommends patches for holes and small tears, and rolls for longer tears or runs. Match the charcoal or silver-gray finish to the existing screen, then check the dimensions on the package. Walmart's listed charcoal roll, for example, measures 2 inches by 80 inches.

Screenmend's directions call for cutting the repair with an extra half-inch around the damaged area, removing its paper backing and holding the adhesive side against the tear. Heat from a hair dryer attaches it. Follow the instructions for the package you buy; this is a patch over the damaged area, so plan the size and placement before cutting.
