A MESSAGE FROM NORTH CAROLINA'S #1 GREENSBORO AWNING REPAIR TEAM:
Greensboro, NC homeowner,
We repair, recover and replace awnings for storefronts, restaurants and homes. Sound frames usually only need new fabric, which costs a fraction of a full replacement, and we will tell you honestly which one you are looking at before you commit to anything. We work across Greensboro and the towns around it.
Either the weather got it or time did. Wind and hail tear fabric and bend arms, and sun fades a colour until the whole storefront looks tired. The question is always the same one: is the frame still good. If it is, you are buying fabric, not a new awning. You want somebody who turns up, tells you straight what it needs, and does it properly the first time. The typical Greensboro property dates to around 1983, so the housing stock here is mostly seventies and eighties. With roughly 62 freeze-thaw days a year, anything that traps water moves and cracks.
We come and look at what you actually have, and measure it, rather than pricing it off a photograph you sent.
It says what is included and what is not, which is the only way to hold two quotes side by side and read them honestly.
If this can wait a season, we will say so. If it is worse than you thought, you will hear that from us first.
You might know this as commercial awning repair. Same work, either name. Everything below is work we handle directly, not passed to a third party.
Every awning gets field-measured, since frames drift out of square over time. Patterns cut from old fabric are unreliable because the old cover has shrunk and stretched.
Old cover stripped, frame inspected and repaired, new panels sewn or heat-welded and stretched over the bars. The most common commercial job by volume.
Rewelding cracked joints, replacing rusted outriggers, and repainting or powder-coating tube. Done while the frame is bare, because doing it later means pulling fabric twice.
Painted, heat-applied vinyl, or sewn appliqué copy and logos. Appliqué costs more up front and outlives applied vinyl, which chalks and peels at the edges.
Patching tears, resewing blown seams, and relacing fabric to the frame. Worth doing on fabric under about five years old and still holding color.
Taking the frame down, hauling it to a shop, and rehanging it. Some jobs are recovered in place on a lift when the frame cannot come off the wall.
A cross-section of the jobs we handle around Greensboro — different sizes, different conditions, same standard.
We work Greensboro and the towns around it every week. We also cover High Point, Summerfield, Kernersville, Stokesdale, Oak Ridge, Pleasant Garden, Archdale and McLeansville. We know what the buildings here are like and how they age.
The crew on your job is licensed, insured, and on our books – we do not hand your work to a subcontractor and hope.
We do awning repair specifically. It is not an add-on to a general contracting business. Someone measures the frame in place, photographs the brackets and wall attachment, and confirms whether the frame can come down or has to be covered in place.
You get the number before the work starts, and it does not move unless something is found that changes the job – which we show you first.
Anything to do with awning repair. To start with: frame survey and measurement, fabric recover on existing frame, frame repair and refinishing, graphics and lettering, spot repair and restitching, removal, disposal, and reinstall. If you need something that is not on that list, call and ask – we can usually quote it or tell you honestly who should.
We cover Greensboro, NC and the surrounding towns – High Point, Summerfield, Kernersville, Stokesdale, Oak Ridge, Pleasant Garden, Archdale, McLeansville, Forest Oaks, Jamestown, Whitsett, Sedalia, Winston-Salem, Burlington, Trinity, Thomasville, Reidsville, Wentworth, Graham, Midway, Walkertown, Wallburg, Randleman, Gibsonville, and more.

Which one is right depends on what we find when we look at it, and we will walk you through the trade-offs rather than picking for you.
Frame survey and measurement is the one we are asked about most often in Greensboro. Every awning gets field-measured, since frames drift out of square over time. Patterns cut from old fabric are unreliable because the old cover has shrunk and stretched.
Most jobs land between $100 and $5,000 per awning frame, depending on condition and scope. We come out, look at it, and give you a written estimate at no charge. We are not the cheapest outfit in Greensboro and we will not pretend to be – but you will know exactly what you are paying for before anything starts.
Fabric grade and warranty: Solution-dyed acrylic and heavy laminated vinyl cost several times what economy polyester does, and carry five to ten year warranties instead of one or none. On a frame you plan to keep, the cheap fabric is the expensive choice. That is usually the biggest single swing in a quote, which is why we look before we price.
Yes. We stand behind what we do and we put the terms in writing with the estimate, so the guarantee is not a handshake you have to remember later.
Call us at (336) 840-1815, or fill in the quote form on this page. We will get back to you, set a time that suits, and come look at the job.
Free estimate, in writing, from a Greensboro team that does this every day.
Call us whenever suits. We handle every size of job, residential and commercial, across Greensboro and the towns around it.
