"Called right away to let me know where I could drop the blinds off (also offered a pick-up option). Good overall experience and the blinds looked great."
"Cuevas Lumber replaced a shared fence on our property almost 9 years ago. Since the job was arranged by the neighbor, I wasn't there to look at details. I thought our gate was installed a bit tight, but it worked, so I left it alone. Over they years things were shifting and this year it got to the point that the gate was almost jammed. It took a bit of effort to find the contact info to the contractor who did the job, and two days after I called them Fidel came over and fixed the gate, cheerfully, perfectly, and under a goodwill warranty - 9 years after the fact. How is that for customer care? How the company stands by its services is probably the best measure of its true quality. It is getting rarer by the day to find people who still care. When you do find them, keep them in your contact list. This guys is a keeper."
"Kerri is great to work with. He works until the job is done, he has an easy personality to work with, very friendly and reliable. We have him coming to do more work for us. His price is very reasonable and he is trustworthy. "
"They did a fantastic job and even came in at the best price. They came in on a Thursday and took out all the concrete with a bobcat into the trucks. They put in new beautiful pavers that look like cobblestone. We used to have drainage problems and they even did it in a way that everything drains underground into the street. They were clean, pleasant, and worked very hard. We are thrilled with the end result and have had a lot of compliments. We will continue to highly recommend them to anyone."
"Joe and his crew were very professional. The work and effort put into the project was great. The end result was amazing and more than we expected. Joe is a guy that delivers what we promises and more. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to have a patio project."
"Amazing!! Manny and his team have been life savers to us since we moved into our new house. From hanging pictures to replacing door knobs, they have been super responsive and helpful and affordable. Would hire them any time!"

"He performs the tasks in detailed. I am happy with the overall experience. He paid two visits to my place. First visit took 8 hours and the second one 7 hours. Highlights: + He offered to help me pick up the material he need on his second visit + He prepared the sink and gutter guard well to make sure this work is high quality. + He is willing to deal with change when I present new ideas or alternative ways of doing the work. + He is honest about what can be done and what not. He will present ideas that he thought will be better (which is different from my original plan) Improvements: His communication can be improved. For example, installing one security camera took much longer than I have expected. It impacted the other scheduled tasks. It will be better if he can communicate the time estimate of the work before hand."
Fabric awnings provide shade, reduce energy costs, and enhance outdoor aesthetics.
The average cost to build a pergola ranges from $2,200 to $6,400, whereas the average cost of an awning ranges from $1,400 to $4,400, meaning that an awning tends to be less expensive to build or install than a pergola. Ultimately, the less expensive option depends on a few factors, including size, quality of materials used, and location.
Yes, awnings can add value to a home, primarily by boosting its curb appeal and providing more usable outdoor space. While the exact monetary return on investment depends on the awning's size, style, and quality, they offer an excellent appeal factor to potential buyers. For example, an awning with a trendy metal roof can be particularly attractive. Even if the direct increase in resale value is modest, a well-chosen awning enhances the home's functionality and aesthetic.
Awnings offer a number of benefits, including:
Reduced summer home cooling costs with lower solar heat gains
Protection from sun, rain, and snow damage
Increased curb appeal for your home
Keep in mind that awnings also have drawbacks, including the potential to reduce your view, block natural light, and create new occasional home maintenance needs.
Yes, you can install an awning yourself, and it can be an excellent DIY project with immediate benefits. This is most feasible for smaller, pre-assembled units. However, awnings are often heavy and awkward for one person to handle, so you should always have at least one helper. If you have difficulty lifting heavy objects, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper mounting and durability.
