Can I open my awning in winter?

• <div><p>You can indeed open your awning in winter. It’s a misconception that you can only open retractable awnings in the warmer months. In fact, modern awnings are strong enough to offer a little respite from the snow if you’re someone who enjoys sipping hot cocoa outside on a beautiful winter day. But if a big storm is coming, such as a hurricane or a blizzard, it’s best to close your awning until the weather calms down.</p></div>

What questions should I ask my awning installer?

• <div><p>When contacting an awning installer, there are a few questions to ask to make sure the process runs smoothly. To have the awning of your dreams installed to shade you from the sun, ask your installer some of these questions to get you started:</p><ul><li><p>How long will this project take to complete?</p></li><li><p>Do you have insurance coverage?</p></li><li><p>Will I need a building permit for this project? Who is responsible for obtaining this?</p></li><li><p>Do you have references from previous clients? </p></li><li><p>Do you have photos of previously completed projects?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

What is the best material for metal awnings?

• <div><p>Stainless steel and copper are the most durable and will probably last the longest, especially when you compare them to fabric awnings. Steel is the most popular if your budget isn’t a top priority, but some people prefer copper awnings over steel because they are lighter, which makes them easier to install. Aluminum offers a more budget-friendly metal awning option that is still attractive and offers some durability, especially compared to fabric.</p></div>

What maintenance do fabric awnings require?

• <div><p>Clean regularly with mild soap and water, and retract during severe weather to prevent damage.</p></div>

How do I find a good contractor to install an awning professionally?

• <div><p>Awnings can be a serious investment for homeowners, particularly if it features a motorized and retractable design. Protect the exterior of your home by choosing a reliable and reputable contractor. Do some research ahead of time to get an idea of the potential contractor’s strengths and weaknesses. Don’t hesitate to give them a call to discuss specifics. </p></div>

"It went well. I was quoted a price on the phone and when they got to my home and realized they had brought the wrong part, they made arrangements to return the next day. However, the price they gave me was more than what I was quoted on the phone. The manager Kim, listened to my original phone call that was made and called me back saying I was quoted the wrong price on the phone. They stood by what I was originally quoted and I really appreciated that. They apologized saying the person I spoke with was still a little new but they honored the price I was quoted."
