Salt air and Florida sun are hard on awning systems. Coastal Dunedin accelerates the wear that inland locations experience over a longer timeline. Motors corrode. Arm joints seize. Fabric loses waterproofing. Hardware oxidizes.
Regular professional maintenance extends the life of any awning system by years. And when something fails, a fast repair prevents a minor issue from becoming a full replacement.
Motors: We replace failed motors, recalibrate limit switches, diagnose power supply issues, and replace battery packs in cordless systems. We service all major motor brands including Somfy, Lutron, Nice, and Becker.
Arms and mechanisms: Bent arms, seized joints, worn cables, and broken elbow mechanisms are all repairable. We lubricate, rebuild, and replace arm components as needed.
Fabric: We patch tears, repair seam separations, and re-waterproof fabric that has lost its water-shedding capability. Minor damage doesn't always require full fabric replacement.
Frames and mounting: We repair wall anchor reinforcement, bracket replacement, weld repair on aluminum frames, and corrosion treatment on hardware.
Sensors: Wind sensor calibration, sun sensor adjustment, and rain sensor replacement keep automated systems operating correctly.
Salt air properties in Dunedin require more frequent attention than inland systems. Pinellas County Emergency Management recommends having storm protection systems professionally inspected before each hurricane season. We include awning system integrity checks as part of our coastal maintenance visits.
Our coastal protocol includes bi-annual hardware inspection for corrosion, freshwater rinse of all metal components, application of protective lubricant, and tension adjustment on retractable arm systems.
We offer maintenance programs that cover scheduled inspection, fabric cleaning, hardware lubrication, tension adjustment, and sensor testing. One annual visit prevents most of the issues that lead to expensive repairs.
Call (727) 334-1902 or submit a service request online. We respond to emergency calls — stuck awnings, motor failures, and storm damage — within 24 hours.
