"Mike's guys did a great job on my new patio awning. I am really pleased with the finished product and would definitely recommend them to anyone needing awning work done."
"2 post support holes were not leveled off at completion. Awning cover was not cut evenly and not able to install gutter guards. Workers left their food garbage (water bottles, food wrappers,etc) about the yard. I was told the work would take 4 days and it was 2 weeks. Did not see or hear from the contractor after signing the contract; communicated through the workers."

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.
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.
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.
Fabric awnings provide shade, reduce energy costs, and enhance outdoor aesthetics.
Costs range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on size, material, and design.
