Fabric awnings provide shade, reduce energy costs, and enhance outdoor aesthetics.

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:

• How long will this project take to complete?

• Do you have insurance coverage?

• Will I need a building permit for this project? Who is responsible for obtaining this?

• Do you have references from previous clients? 

• Do you have photos of previously completed projects?

Yes, most awnings include warranties for materials and installation. Confirm terms before purchasing.

It depends on how you’ll use it. Both awnings and pergolas create shelter in outdoor areas, but pergolas have grid-style roofs, which are more open than awnings and not as effective at blocking out UV rays and precipitation. Also, pergolas are permanent structures, so you can’t put them away when you aren’t using them (unlike retractable awnings).
