Businesses can benefit in many ways from having awnings installed on their windows.
Not only can you keep the sun out of your eyes while you're working but you
can also protect valuable products from UV rays. Retractable awnings can reduce
your energy costs by blocking out heat. Awnings are also a great place to advertise
your business name.
Retractable awnings come in many different forms: Pole mounted, free standing, rolling/trolley
system framing, tension awning systems, drop arm awnings, manual and motorized awnings
are just some of the options. These versatile awnings are suitable for a variety
of applications including: sidewalk cafes, banquet or catering hall patios, decks
or terraces, hotel pool areas, office entrances, exterior walkways or dining areas,

Standard Installation ‑ Wall Mount
Whittington Construction Group will install your awnings using only licensed and trained installers. Our expertise allows us to offer you a two year installation guarantee to protect your beautiful new investment. In most cases the retractable awning can be installed on an exterior wall of the home. There is no problem installing on vinyl, wood or a specialty material such as concrete board. Our installers will locate the studs or header and attach the awning with lag screws through siding material into the structure of the house. If your home is constructed of brick, our experts will determine the exact installation of the awning. In some cases such as newer brick homes, we can install through the brick to the structure of the home. Other situations may require an epoxy fastener system that allows the awning to be secured to the brick surface itself. Drivit or stucco surfaces usually allow the awning to be attached to the wall. The installation will need to be inspected by our experts to determine the correct method. Stucco or drivit may require an additional board to support the awning.
Sofit or Roof Mount Installation
Ranch and tri‑level style homes often lack enough clearance or height to allow wall mount installation. In those cases, we will install the awning to the roof using specialized roof brackets. Roof brackets are carefully installed by our experts using a three point process that allows Whittington Construction Group to offer a guarantee water‑tight seal. The brackets lift the awning above the gutter allowing the water to flow under the awning. A roof mounted awning will not interfere with drainage of water off the roof.
