WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO!

Family history of melanoma dedicates us not only to high quality products and workmanship, but also to helping our clients protect  the lives of their loved ones, visitors and customers.

We have lived and worked in the Lake Gaston area for over 30 years, and we know how important it is to you to protect your property from damage caused by sun and weather.

1. Local presence – Make sure you can visit your dealer and see the various shapes and configurations of covers and shades as well as trying out the motorized or manual controls for ease of use

2. Brackets – Extruded heavy-duty aluminum; this is the first thing attached to your property and skimpy brackets means a skimpy job!

3. Arms – Double cable to reduce wear and increase tension in arms; hinges move independently for maximum protection in high wind

4. Painted Frames - We custom-weld stationary frames and use an exclusive Sherwin-Williams product to paint frames to match your choice of covering; if you choose black or white, the painting is free.

5. Fabric – Breathable options that don’t trap heat or encourage mildew, with coordinated styles and choice of removable valances.

6. Thread - Our stationary covers are sewn with Tenara thread, impervious to sun, weather, or water damage; guaranteed for the life of your cover.

7. Stitching - We do not chain stitch; we use a unique lock-stitch method that ensures should a thread come loose in one spot, the seam still stays secure.

8. Installation – custom made spacers on site to accommodate masonry, vinyl or wood siding.

9. Warranty - “Lifetime” warranties offered by most companies are actually for seven years – the average life span of an awning manufactured by one of the national chains – our 10-year warranty represents “Lifetime” PLUS three years!
