"We are very happy with our patio cover! It completely changed our back yard entertainment! The project was finished a day earlier than projected and below budget."
"We are a restaurant. Our hood is old and showed signs of wear and tear. We had the seams welded and a grease cup installed. Vincent is excellent and the job he performed was perfection. Our hood is now in great shape and good for another 20 years. He also welded our broken fry baskets and they are now functional. He is a true professional and his work is outstanding. I highly recommend his services."
"Insanely knowledgeable about his trade. I had a very tricky remodel on a single wide trailer and he got it done in a timely manner and all work was solid. Very friendly man and I m happy I got sent his number. Ty."
"16 years ago Petkus Brothers put a beautiful sunroom addition on our house and a cover over our patio in Roseville. The craftsmanship of the sunroom and the installation have stood the test of time. We've had no problems with it and it looks just as good today as it did the day they installed it. The installers were professional, explained each step over the days it took to erect it and cleaned up everyday - no loose screws or scrap metal laying around. Recently we had them put a cover over our driveway to protect our vehicles. Again, installers were focused, explained the process and cleaned up all the mess the three days it took to install it. I could not be happier with the work 16 years ago and work done 3 weeks ago. Thank you - Kevin, your craftsmanship and installers are exceptional!"
"Tremendous attention to details for awning motor install for older awning. Bruce arrived at time he said he would. He stayed until job was finished. Knows his stuff and correct parts for the job."
"We found the company to be both honest and very easy to work with. We told them our needs and budget and they came up with a great plan. Work was completed as promised in a VERY timely manor. The installers were respectful and professional. We do a lot of entertaining and our patio cover allows us to utilize our patio year round now. The sunscreens on our windows cut down considerably on heat coming through our windows helping keep our air conditioning costs down. We shopped around before we made our final decision and we are very happy we choose Sierra Sunscreens and Patio Covers not only receiving a great patio cover but also supporting a local business owner."

Yes, you can convert a fabric awning to a metal one. You just need to swap the fabric for metal panels, which are more durable and weather-resistant. However, the support frame will probably need reinforcement to handle the added weight. You should consult a pro to address any structural concerns.
To ensure the installation process goes smoothly, it's wise to ask a potential pro several questions. Key topics to cover include:
Licensing and Insurance: Do you have a professional license and insurance to perform this work? This is crucial as installing an awning into a home's exterior can be a complex job.
Cost Estimate: What was the price of similar jobs you've completed? Awning installation costs can vary based on size, design, and location, so this helps establish a general price range.
Project Timeline: How long will this project take to complete? Getting an estimated timeline provides peace of mind, even though unforeseen hurdles can occur.
Building Permits: Will I need a building permit for this project, and who is responsible for obtaining it? An experienced local contractor will be knowledgeable about local rules and regulations.
References and Portfolio: Do you have references from previous clients or photos of completed projects? Speaking with past clients and seeing previous work can give you insight into their experience and the quality of their work.
