Q: Do awnings add value to your home?

• <div><p>Awnings can add value by boosting your home&rsquo;s curb appeal. An awning with a metal roof may attract potential buyers seeking trendy design materials.</p></div>

Q: How much does a metal awning installation cost?

• <div><p>Costs range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on size, material, and design.</p></div>

Q: Can I install an awning myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small, pre-assembled awnings. Professional installation ensures proper mounting and durability.</p></div>

Q: When is it too windy for an awning?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to keep your awning retracted if winds are <b>25 miles per hour</b> or more to make sure your awning doesn&rsquo;t sustain irreparable damage due to wind. Some awnings can take winds up to 30 miles per hour without any damage, but it&rsquo;s best to consult the manufacturer&rsquo;s guidance. A good rule of thumb is if it&rsquo;s too windy for you to comfortably stand outside, it&rsquo;s time to bring the awning in.</p></div>

Q: Can I open my awning in winter?

• <div><p>You can indeed open your awning in winter. It&rsquo;s a misconception that you can only open retractable awnings in the warmer months. In fact, modern awnings are strong enough to offer a little respite from the snow if you&rsquo;re someone who enjoys sipping hot cocoa outside on a beautiful winter day. But if a big storm is coming, such as a hurricane or a blizzard, it&rsquo;s best to close your awning until the weather calms down.</p></div>

"Thomas was terrific. We were preparing to sell our house, and Thomas suggested several improvements that he could make that would increase the appeal of the house. He carried out an ambitious program over 3 weeks. The difference was dramatic, and we received multiple offers for considerably more money than we initially projected. The house was on the market less than a week, and I credit Thomas' work for both the increased price and speed of sale."

Designer Awnings likes nothing more than a happy customer. We are independently owned and operated. Everything is done by us, and to the highest quality. We have been involved in the trade for years and use only the best products and techniques available. It is very important to the company that the customer is satisfied. We believe that is the only way a business can succeed. Call today for a free estimate.

"I waited 3 years to write this review. The awning has worked flawlessly and was a â Best Buyâ in my opinion. We replaced a manual awning that was 26 years old with this motorized one. No need to move furniture to open this awning so we have used it almost every day in July and August. We have a deck that faces north and like the sun in the kitchen in winter, so a motorized awning is perfect for our needs. Designer awnings also removed our old awning and used siding I saved in my basement to complete a very professional installation. None of the other companies I contacted would do this for us."
