When looking for a Boston awning company for your project, it’s important to consider several factors. First, research how long the company has been in business and the customer reviews they’ve received. This helps ensure you’re working with a reputable company. Additionally, consider the awning brands and types offered. There are several awning types, and knowing about them can help you decide which will withstand the Boston weather and have the aesthetic that suits your home. Awning types include:
Most Boston awning companies will put together a free, no-obligation quote to start the purchase process. Information you will need to give to obtain a quote includes awning type, product needed, how soon you want it installed, address, contact information and measurements. Some companies offer a free at-home appointment, where they will obtain more detailed measurements before putting together a personalized quote.
After a quote has been accepted and the awning has been ordered and made, technicians will deliver and install the awning. Depending on the type of installation you request, technicians will affix the awning to the side of the home or the roof. After the awning is installed, the technician will walk you through the features, showing you how the awnings work and answering any questions you have. How long it takes for awnings to be installed can be anywhere from two hours to two days. Pre-assembled, retractable awnings can be installed in a day or less.
As of publication, Boston awnings can range from $695 to $5,000 but most cost somewhere between $1,244 and $3,647. Pricing varies based on materials, labor, awning type, add-on features and size.
Awning type | Cost range |
---|---|
Pergola | $40 to $100 |
Window | $250 to $500 |
Door | $250 to $500 |
Balcony | $300 to $2,000 |
Hot tub | $300 to $6,000 |
Pool | $1,200 to $25,000 |
Patio | $400 to $25,000 |
Garage door | $800 to $6,000 |
Deck | $800 to $6,000 |
Mobile home | $800 to $6,000 |
Additional costs to consider are those associated with permits and code enforcement. The company you choose to work with can tell you if you need a permit and assist with filing. You’ll also want to consider ongoing maintenance and upkeep to lengthen the awning's lifespan. Because awnings are outside and exposed to all weather elements, regular maintenance is an important consideration.
