What to Expect During an Awning or Pergola Installation

Investing in an awning or pergola is an exciting way to enhance your outdoor space, whether at home or for your business. To help you feel prepared and confident, here’s a guide on what to expect during the installation process.

 

Initial Enquiry

At the start of your journey, when you first contact your installer, you may be asked a few questions to help them understand what you are looking for. They may ask for approximate sizes, pictures of the installation area and even an idea of your budget. This allows them to suggest the most suitable products for your space. In some cases, they may also look to provide an idea of costings at this stage so you have a clear idea of potential costs before a site visit takes place.

Site Survey and Consultation

Before installation, a site survey should be carried out to assess your space and discuss your requirements. They will look at measurements, mounting surfaces, and any access considerations, ensuring the chosen product is the perfect fit for your property. This visit will also give you the opportunity to choose the type of awning or pergola that you would like, with options for manual or electric operation, fabric colours, frame finishes, and optional extras like LED lighting or side screens. This step ensures your new installation matches both your style and practical requirements.

Confirmation of Order

Following the site visit, you should receive a final confirmation outlining the details agreed during the survey. This will summarise the product chosen, specifications, and any additional features. At this stage, some companies may request full payment up front, while others will ask for a deposit with the remaining balance due closer to or after installation.

Preparing the Installation Area

On the installation day, the team will prepare the area by clearing space. For wall-mounted awnings, brackets will be fixed securely to your property, while pergolas may require posts anchored into the ground.

Professional Installation

Our experienced installers will assemble and fit your awning or pergola with precision, making sure everything is level, aligned, and operates smoothly. For electric models, we’ll also connect the motor, remote control, or smart automation features safely and efficiently.

Testing and Demonstration

Once fitted, we thoroughly test the product to ensure it extends, retracts, or adjusts as it should. We’ll also show you how to use and care for your new awning or pergola, including tips on cleaning, retracting in poor weather, and using additional features like lighting or screens.

Clean-Up and Final Check

Our team leaves the area tidy, removing any packaging or waste materials. Before leaving, we’ll do a final inspection with you to make sure you’re completely satisfied with the installation.

Aftercare and Warranty

All our products come with manufacturer and installation warranties, giving you peace of mind. We’re always available for aftercare advice, maintenance, or servicing to keep your awning or pergola in top condition.
