"Every single step of this experience exceeded my expectations. My salesman Anthony was so genuine and professional... I loved that it's a family run business with no subcontractors. The installers were two young men who got right to work and did a great job installing the new awning and teaching me how to use the remote control and manual aspects. I honestly could not be more pleased. Everything about this purchase exceeded my expectations. For the first time since I've had the deck I will be able to have full Usage of it during the scorching hot Florida summer!"
"From the estimate through completion, Craig and his crew were amazing. He kept me involved and let me explain plans and worked with me to make it happen. They are beyond reasonable in pricing, efficient and clean when on site. My neighbors has work done based on their actions at my house. There's tons of companies that are fancy and play games, these guys don't. Do your self a favor and hire them."

The owner and workers were extremely professional. The owner communicated regularly with us after providing a written program of work to be completed within a set timetable. They didn't leave a mess and went above and beyond to produce an excellent finished cabin. Would definitely use again.
Since we did not live in the house, we left immediately after paying the provider. About three days later I did a more thorough inspection and noticed several items that were not completed or needed repair. I emailed the provider and he has never responded. Also, when I asked about the discount listed he said it was for pressure washing only. No discount was given.
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.
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.
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.
Clean regularly with mild soap and water, and retract during severe weather to prevent damage.
A retractable awning won’t necessarily increase your home’s value very much, but it can offer a boost of aesthetic appeal to potential buyers. In the long-term, however, a well-placed awning will save you money on cooling and protect your deck and outdoor furniture from sun exposure during the hot summer season.
