Wanted: recommendation for an awning

[arworld]

We would like an awning in patio and just called a company and they said it will cost ?2,700!

Does anyone know where I can find a company / person who can supply and install an awning that does not cost a fortune?

Thanks,

Hi,

There is a company in New Cross that does reasonably priced awning and they are very good. They are called 'Shades' and are in The Apollo Business Centre, 158 Trundleys RD, SE8 5JE. Telephone 0208 694 2617. I have just bought awning material from them for a home made stall for craft fairs. They supply and install awning but the fixings can be bought with the materials separately for a DIY job. They are very helpful especially if you have a budget to stick to.

A friend also bought a ready made awning in Macros SE10, which was easy to install himself and is brilliant, but that was a few summers back, I don't know if they will sell them this summer. You have to have a trade card to buy there but lots of people or clubs have them and someone would help you out. I am entitled to one if you need it.

Good luck with your purchase.

Anne
