I started as an electrical apprentice in 1999. I passed my journeyman exam in 2001. After years of Commerical jobs and waster water controls I ventured off into handyman, carpentry, and anything in between. \nI’ve been very lucky to have had some great teachers along the way, all pros in their craft. If I have not done it, I will tell you that right away, but I will find a way to get it done.

I've been running my upholstery business for the last 6 years and I'm ready for a change. I'm a handy woman that can do just about anything. Assembling furniture, decluttering, and organizing are my top favorites to do at the moment. I want to end up tiling backsplashes and showers, but I need more practice before I offer that.\n\nAny small project I can do. I've tiled, laid flooring, done drywall, installed a dryer (electric), washer, and a fridge, I can change the door knobs for you. Hang photos (just no tvs) and other misc smaller jobs you may have. \n\nI'm very particular on cleanliness and will not leave a mess. However if I am hired to clean or declutter, you will need to supply a wastebasket or dumpster as I do not haul away trash or anything.

Awnings FAQs, answered by experts

It’s not a good idea to allow heavy rain to fall on your awning, as puddling can occur and overload the awning. Your awning should be able to handle a light rain, though you should allow it to dry out before retracting it or open it to dry as soon as the rain stops. As always, consult manufacturer guidelines for using and caring for your awning.

Besides the type of awning, you’ll need to choose the type of cover. Your awning installation professional will review your options with you, including availability and costs. The types of covers you can choose from include:

  • Wood, which is durable but can be damaged easily by rainwater and fire

  • Cotton offers flexibility, weatherproofing, and easy cleaning

  • Canvas is highly durable and is a good choice for retractable awnings 

  • Metal is sturdy but is prone to rust

  • Polyester is easy to clean and is a more breathable option

  • Polycarbonate is highly resistant to UV rays and is difficult to damage

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.

Regularly clean with mild detergent and water, and inspect for rust or damage.

Awnings offer a variety of materials to choose from, each of which has its own benefits. Cotton is a lower-cost option that’s also more eco-friendly because it’s made from natural materials, while acrylic-coated polyester and vinyl offer better durability against harsh weather. Fiberglass and metal are also resilient to weather, although metal can be vulnerable to corrosion without protective sealant. Ultimately, you’ll need to consider your climate and your budget in deciding the best material for your awning.
