"We have a large deck and a large family. We had been using two metal frame 10x10 canopies for shade over our two six foot long patio tables and 14 chairs. We had to replace them nearly every year due to wear, tear and fading etc. The frame of the canopies took up room on the deck making it difficult to move out chairs from our tables when we were having dinner on the deck. Our new awning from Dorchester Awning Company is absolutely amazing. It is 20 feet wide by 13 ft 6 inches and nearly covers our entire deck. We have so much more usable room on the deck. No more worries about taking in the canopies during heavy storms/hurricanes. We can retract the awning with a push of a button! We also purchased the wind sensor in the event the awning is out and a rogue wind whips up. The choice of fabrics is too extensive to mention. If you can't find a complimentary color it's because it doesn't exist. We scheduled our initial appointment for an estimate and John, our salesman/installer came out as promised on time. He was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. We were so impressed with the product and the service, we ordered then and there. The awning was delivered and installed within the exact time frame promised. The installers did a wonderful job. Everything was cleaned up as if they had never even been there. Mark Lampson followed up with us by phone to be sure we were happy with the product and installation. About 2-3 weeks after the installation my husband was showing a friend the awning and tried to retract it and the awning would retract a few inches and then go out again. It would not retract. Fortunately they also provide you with a hand crank for the awning in the event of power failure so we were able to retract the awning by hand. It just so happened Mark had called again the following day to check in. I told him about the problem which he suspected was a defect in the motor. Within one week our new motor was installed. Our awning works perfectly now. I would highly recommend Dorchester Awning Company. The product is excellent and the service is exemplary. We have already recommended this company to lots of our friends who have been impressed with our awning!"

"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."

Patio Covers questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on fabric type, window size, and additional features like motorization or custom designs.

Hurricane fabric is a temporary form of hurricane protection that offers an alternative to boarding up windows or installing traditional storm panels. Unlike hurricane screens, which are permanently attached to your home, hurricane fabric is installed over your windows and other openings before a storm.

In terms of effectiveness, hurricane fabric is tested and proven to protect homes from Category 5 hurricanes, which can have winds over 157 miles per hour. When installed properly, it is designed to block the majority of wind and rain and protect against water, debris, and projectile damage.

While the fabric is exceptionally durable, windows can still break if hit directly by flying debris at high velocity. However, it is a good protective measure against an impending storm. For comparison, hurricane fabric is more protective and durable than hurricane window film. While boarding up windows is easier than installing the fabric, it is more labor-intensive and requires storing heavy plywood.

To further increase the chances of your windows surviving a hurricane, you can take additional steps like securing outdoor items, elevating HVAC units, and fortifying your home's foundation.

It’s best to opt for a lightweight roof, as a heavy roof adds a lot of weight and pressure to the support posts and hardware and destabilizes the structure. Vinyl is a good, lightweight option, as is a nice open trellis, louvered aluminum or vinyl slats, or fabric panels. Clear polycarbonate is another great option that offers seamless shelter and additional UV protection without completely obscuring the sunshine. You can also choose retractable coverings or an awning that you only use in wet weather or when you need additional shade.

There are many ways to mitigate wind damage. Some of the most common methods include installing storm windows and doors and wind-rated garage doors. When you get a wind mitigation inspection, the inspector will also assess the condition and shape of your roof to see how well it will withstand strong winds.

Metal awnings last much longer than fabric thanks to their durability and resistance to fading, sun damage, and damage from the outside elements. They also need less maintenance than fabric options. Both items add curb appeal to your home, but you shouldn't expect either type of awning to add property value to your home.
