"I highly recommend Mark and his employees at DSM. I was in dire straights trying to get a contractor to fix my retractable awning. This company quoted me a price and fixed my awning. They were also extremely very nice and professional. Thank You DSM"
"It went very well. My only complaint was that there was not literature (warranty, maintenance instructions, etc.) that came when they installed it. They said that it would be e-mailed to me. It never was. I also had a technical question so I called them. They put me though to the specialist but I had to leave a message. They never called me back."
"The sales rep was very helpful in providing a sample of different awning designs. The installation crew was Pleasant and did a great job setting up the awning cover. The pricing to replace our old awning cover and two supporting arms was very competitive."
"Zak was very professional, easy to deal with very thorough and patient about picking out the correct awnings for my patio. He explained it all to me was happy with my decision to go with Garden State Shade!"
"Installers were professional and friendly. Appreciated the texts and calls regarding arrival. Came back a second time to tuck away the power cord once we had an outlet installed near the awning."

Metal awnings are durable, low-maintenance, and provide shade and weather protection.
Yes, you can install an awning yourself, and it can be an excellent DIY project with immediate benefits. This is most feasible for smaller, pre-assembled units. However, awnings are often heavy and awkward for one person to handle, so you should always have at least one helper. If you have difficulty lifting heavy objects, professional installation is recommended to ensure proper mounting and durability.
Yes, you can replace just the fabric on an awning without having to replace the entire awning frame and hardware. This process will take a professional about one to two hours. If you want to DIY, it could take longer, especially for large or retractable awnings. Replacing the fabric on an awning can improve the look of your home and help naturally cool your interior and exterior spaces.
Awnings can be a serious investment for homeowners, particularly if it features a motorized and retractable design. Protect the exterior of your home by choosing a reliable and reputable contractor. Do some research ahead of time to get an idea of the potential contractor’s strengths and weaknesses. Don’t hesitate to give them a call to discuss specifics.
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.
