"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."
"Jim was great!! My husband passed away a few months ago who could repair anything!!! I’m relieved that I have Jim Short to call for house projects. I will be calling Jim again."

A retractable awning won’t necessarily increase your home’s value very much, but it can offer a boost of aesthetic appeal to potential buyers. In the long-term, however, a well-placed awning will save you money on cooling and protect your deck and outdoor furniture from sun exposure during the hot summer season.
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).
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.
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.
Metal awnings are durable, low-maintenance, and provide shade and weather protection.
