Awning Installation Project 1
Your Awning Professional
A retractable awning could be the answer to getting more use from your outdoor living area by providing an attractive shaded solution to your patio or deck. Awnings also have the benefit of protecting you and your family from the sun's harmful rays while simultaneously helping you save on energy costs by reducing solar heat gain within your home.
Here at B&H, we accomplish the above benefits for our residential clients by using the industry-leading line of SUNAIR awnings, screens and specialty shading products. You can view a variety of examples of the Sunair product line in our showroom.
As a reminder, we service homeowners in Bucks County and Montgomery County from our designer showroom in Chalfont.

Frequently Asked Questions
We install retractable awnings, fixed awnings, motorized awnings, and manual awnings for patios, decks, windows, and doors. Retractable awnings are most popular because they provide shade when needed and can be retracted during storms or winter. We work with premium brands known for quality and durability, and can customize size, fabric color, and features.
Retractable awnings typically cost $2,000-$5,000 installed, depending on size and features. A standard 12-foot manual retractable awning costs around $2,000-$3,000, while a large motorized awning with premium fabric could be $4,000-$6,000. Costs depend on width, projection (how far it extends), fabric choice, manual vs. motorized operation, and any additional features like sensors.
Quality awnings typically last 10-15 years with proper care. The fabric usually needs replacement every 8-10 years due to sun exposure, while the frame and mechanisms can last 15+ years. Retractable awnings last longer because you can protect them during harsh weather. We use premium fabrics with UV protection and mildew resistance for maximum longevity.
Yes! Modern retractable awnings are engineered to handle wind, rain, and sun typical in Pennsylvania. However, we recommend retracting your awning during severe storms and winter months to protect it and extend its life. Motorized awnings can include wind sensors that automatically retract the awning in high winds. Proper mounting and installation (which we ensure) is critical for weather resistance.
Absolutely! Motorized awnings offer convenient remote control operation, and some can be integrated with smart home systems. They can include sun and wind sensors for automatic operation. Motorized systems are perfect for large awnings, high installations, or when convenience is a priority. We install all major motorized awning brands and can retrofit many manual awnings with motors.
Clean your awning 2-3 times per year with mild soap and water using a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and let it dry completely before retracting. Never use harsh chemicals or power washers. Retract the awning during storms and winter. Lubricate moving parts annually. We provide detailed care instructions with every installation. Proper maintenance can extend your awning's life significantly.
