"Although the cost of the house we're building went a bit over budget, James (Jimmy) Murphy worked closely with us to design and build a beautiful sunroom that we could fit into our already stretched budget. None of the other companies we contacted were as considerate, accommodating or flexible as Murphy's. Jimmy really did go the extra mile for us and we won't ever forget that. His employees and sub-contractors do very good work. We love, love, love our sunroom! The exterior blends in beautifully with the rest of our house and the room itself matches so perfectly it looks like it's an extension of our family room. We can't wait until our house is complete so we can move in and starting using the room! After we move in we'll be back in touch with Murphy's to see about some type of awning or covering for our back patio area. "
"The folks from Rosek Home Maintenance were fantastic, from helping us select material, style,and performing installation. Everything was delivered and installed as communicated. The awning has been working flawlessly and is enjoyed routinely. Thank you."
I have a 12 year background in cleaning/refinishing/repairing of leather/vinyl, structural/mechanical repairs, re-sewing/re-stuffing, component installs-I don't do any wood refinishing or upholstery.
Awnings are either fixed or retractable and can be paired with a variety of cover materials. Fixed awnings are a permanent outdoor feature of a building. These are highly durable and require ongoing maintenance. Once installed, the position of this awning cannot be changed.
Retractable awnings are more popular than fixed awnings since the cover can open and close. This allows homeowners to open and close the awning, depending on the weather. When not in use, it can be closed to allow for extra space.
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.
On average, awning costs range from $1,400 to $4,400. The low end of the cost range can be around $100 up to $7,500 on the high end. Cost factors include the type of awning, size, and location. Portable awnings are the most affordable and DIY-friendly to install, costing $100 to $400. Larger, motorized awnings tend to be more solidly built, ranging in price from $2,000 to $3,500.
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.
