How ASPA Memberships Support Screen and Patio Professionals Nationwide

ASPA memberships offer screen and patio professionals across the United States exclusive access to networking events, vendor connections, and professional development for a one-time $50 business initiation fee that covers multiple team members.

What Does ASPA Membership Include?

ASPA membership provides networking events, industry exposure, professional development sessions, marketing support, and access to a growing vendor network with drop-ship capabilities.

When you join ASPA, you become part of the only U.S. association built exclusively for screen and patio professionals. Your business gains invitations to the annual trade show, sponsor visibility, and educational content designed to help you grow. Multiple employees from your company can participate under the single initiation fee, making it easy to bring your whole team into the conversation.

This structure supports both established businesses and new entrants who want to learn from decades of industry experience. The association fosters collaboration and knowledge exchange, helping you stay current with trends in outdoor living spaces and screened patio installations.

How Did ASPA Begin?

ASPA was founded in 2023 by Patrick to unite a small, specialized industry and encourage businesses to share techniques, challenges, and successes.

Patrick's background includes purchasing Covina Screen Products in 2020, a family business established in the 1950s. He continued its legacy of craftsmanship and community trust while modernizing operations and expanding vendor partnerships. His experience revealed a need for a dedicated association where screen and patio professionals could connect, learn, and grow together.

ASPA emerged from that vision, creating a nationwide platform for collaboration and innovation. The association reflects Patrick's commitment to elevating professionalism and providing resources that help members tackle real-world challenges.

Which Member Benefits Matter Most?

Members value access to vendor networks, hands-on learning opportunities, and the chance to see how other professionals approach common installation and material challenges.

The vendor network includes suppliers offering drop-shipped products, which streamline ordering and delivery for businesses in any region. Professional development sessions cover new materials, installation techniques, and business management strategies. Marketing support helps you communicate your value to homeowners and commercial clients.

You also gain peer insights from businesses facing similar demand patterns and seasonal fluctuations. This exchange of ideas helps you refine your processes and discover solutions you might not find on your own.

Why Are Outdoor Living Spaces Growing in Demand?

Homeowners across the country are investing more in outdoor living areas, including screened patios that extend usable space and protect against insects and weather.

This trend creates opportunities for screen and patio professionals in regions with warm climates, where outdoor entertaining is popular year-round, and in areas with seasonal demand spikes. ASPA membership helps you stay informed about regional preferences and emerging product options that meet diverse customer needs.

The association's national reach means you can learn from businesses in different markets and apply those lessons to your local operations. Whether you're serving suburban neighborhoods or commercial properties, ASPA connects you with resources and peers who understand your work.
