"From the earliest moment of engagement to the successful finish, North Country awning, its owner and his associates offered uparallelled commitment to both quality of work and adherence to time and cost commitments. The awning is gorgeous, and it has been installed with features we simply didn't have on our first awning."
"We were visited by Bob from Vista who did a great job working with us on what needed to be completed and price negotiation. This was certainly a package deal with windows/siding/tile work and masonry all being done to the home. Before the work started we also met with Brian who had some great recommendations on siding style and tile patterns. He mentioned he would have his "A" Team working on the job and overseeing the project. The siding and windows took only two days to complete and the results are outstanding. The "A" Team certainly lived up to it's reputation and had to battle 90+ degree to complete the job. The tile in the breezeway looks terrific as well as the masonry work on the front steps and the new awning. We've had quite a few compliments on the home. As with all large scale projects there are speed bumps along the way, but everything we requested to be modified or adjusted was addressed in a timely manner. Overall, it was excellent work. "

Yes, most awnings include warranties for materials and installation. Confirm terms before purchasing.
You can indeed open your awning in winter. It’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’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’s best to close your awning until the weather calms down.
It’s best to keep your awning retracted if winds are 25 miles per hour or more to make sure your awning doesn’t sustain irreparable damage due to wind. Some awnings can take winds up to 30 miles per hour without any damage, but it’s best to consult the manufacturer’s guidance. A good rule of thumb is if it’s too windy for you to comfortably stand outside, it’s time to bring the awning in.
Besides the type of awning, you’ll need to choose the type of cover. Your awning installation professional will review your options with you, including availability and costs. The types of covers you can choose from include:
Wood, which is durable but can be damaged easily by rainwater and fire
Cotton offers flexibility, weatherproofing, and easy cleaning
Canvas is highly durable and is a good choice for retractable awnings
Metal is sturdy but is prone to rust
Polyester is easy to clean and is a more breathable option
Polycarbonate is highly resistant to UV rays and is difficult to damage
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.
