Default Replacing awnings

Is there anyone that has had their awning material replaced on the same frame? Everyone I call says they can't replace the material on my frame, only want to sell me new awning. I don't understand???

Is it a fixed or retractable awning. If it is a fixed awning, call Sunshine Canvas, 787-4436. If it a retractable awning, call RK Products, 430-4430. Did you ask the people you spoke to WHY they couldn't replace the fabric? It may depend on the manufacturer of your awning. Did you try to contact them?

Call Awnings Unlimited. They've been here for at least 20yrs. Redid ours on the original frame(they did it the first time) very reasonable, fast service and the owner is doing the work. Didn't even want a dime until the job was complete. Highy recommend.

I have replaced my awnings and since I used the same installed he put them on the existing frames. He did clean and repaint them first. Not sure if he took them down to do that. It was a while ago.

Default Awnings

Thank you to all your suggestions about awnings. I called Sunshine Awnings and they sent out a very nice young man and we are going with them.

I am having exactly the same issue with three awnings that need to be replaced.
Thanks for the feedback. I will definitely give Sunshine Awnings a call.
