Chris was very professional in all aspects of our order and installation. We are so happy with the awning and the custom work he did to mount it as we desired. His attention to detail and emphasis on the quality of the build really impressed us. I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

Chris was fantastic to deal with. He was honest in giving advice which was great because he saved us $$. He does the installation himself. Turn around time was less than 3 weeks. I would definitely recommend this company. We LOVE our awning.

Brand new awning installed in April and have used it all summer long. Chris and his crew were very professional and clean. I have recommended him to all my friends and family.
