In 2009 we had our awnings replaced and at that time, SJ Awning did a fine job. Fast forward to 2014 and we have a leak behind the awning which needs immediate attention. Rain water is getting into our house. The awning needs to come down in order for the work to be properly done to repair the leak. I called SJA to see if they could come out and do a take down of the awning (and then replace after the completed work). Talk about a huge NO. They were less than helpful, and said, "This is not within the scope of our work." My biggest concern is that operations like this one, as with so

I first contracted with San Jose Awning in 2005, & they did an excellent job with recommendations for 2 motorized awnings which have served beautifully, most recently for my daughter's wedding. I asked them to check into why the awning was not rolling up correctly and had 2 small holes at the top..They advised that I needed a new cradle (which was 8 years old) and then repaired the existing awning by cutting off the damaged portion which was near the top. I did not have to purchase a new awning; it is now working perfectly, & their charges were reasonable. There crew is friendly

Last week we got 3 sun screens and 1 awning installed at our house in San Jose. Starting with sales call to pre-order visit to placing the order to delivery and installation we have been very satisfied with the professionalism of the staff and workman ship of the installation crew. For any future installations we would go back to them.

Do not use these guys
I spent $7,000 for an awning and just two years later the motor is bad and I cant roll the awning out. They want $200 just to come and look at it.
