"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, most awnings include warranties for materials and installation. Confirm terms before purchasing.
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.
The average cost to build a pergola ranges from $2,200 to $6,400, whereas the average cost of an awning ranges from $1,400 to $4,400, meaning that an awning tends to be less expensive to build or install than a pergola. Ultimately, the less expensive option depends on a few factors, including size, quality of materials used, and location.
It’s not a good idea to allow heavy rain to fall on your awning, as puddling can occur and overload the awning. Your awning should be able to handle a light rain, though you should allow it to dry out before retracting it or open it to dry as soon as the rain stops. As always, consult manufacturer guidelines for using and caring for your awning.
Minor fabric patching is DIY-friendly, but frame and mechanical repairs should be professionally handled.
