Cheryl was very pleasant to work with and quickly got back to us with a quote. Now we just need to decide if we are going to actually put up an awning of material, or go with metal (they don't do all metal) or simply tint the window!

Extremely professional and helpful. I was leaving on vacation and they went out of their way to help me prior to our trip. The custom-made patio cover fits perfectly. Weve had it for 2 years, excellent quality. Happy to be returning with another order and support small business in Riverside.

I was referred to these guys from another awning company that was overbooked and I'm starting to see why. They did not want any of their business stolen. I called to get an estimate scheduled and I waited a week for them to come out. They never showed up. I understand that things happen, so I then gave them another shot. I tried to schedule an appointment to which they said they could not give me a timed appointment! Just an approximate time in the afternoon "maybe'". Needless to say, they never showed up. I can only imagine how they perform work if this is how they treat their prospective clients
