Our Simple Awning Quotation Process

To make things easy, we follow a simple process to help you understand the likely cost before arranging a home visit.

1️⃣ Send us your sizes and photos

Send us the width, the projection (how far you want the awning to extend) and a few photos of the area where the awning would be installed.

2️⃣ Receive a guide price

Based on the information you provide, our team will review your space and provide a guide price along with details of what the installation includes.

3️⃣ Arrange your home survey

If the guide price is within the range you expected, we’ll arrange a professional site survey to confirm measurements and installation requirements.

All guide prices are subject to site survey to confirm exact measurements and fixing requirements.

Choosing the Right Awning Size for Your Patio

Installing a patio awning involves choosing the right width and projection to suit your outdoor space. The width of the awning usually depends on the available wall space, while the projection determines how far the awning extends to provide shade.

Most residential awnings are available with projections ranging from around 2 metres up to approximately 3.75 metres, depending on the model.

When selecting an awning size, a few factors are considered:

  • the width of the patio or seating area

  • the projection required to provide sufficient shade

  • the mounting height available on the wall

  • obstacles such as lights, gutters or doors

Because awnings are installed at a slight angle to allow rainwater to run off, the shaded area will usually be slightly less than the full projection.

During the survey, we measure the installation area and recommend the most suitable awning size to ensure it provides effective shade while maintaining safe head height underneath.

You can learn more about installation considerations in our Awning Buying Guide.

Awnings are subject to specific installation terms and usage guidelines. You can view full details in our Awnings Terms & Disclaimers.

Not Sure Which Awning Is Right for Your Home? Send Us Your Sizes and Photos

Simply send us a few photos of the area where the awning would be installed.

Also include, the width of the awning you are looking for and the projection (how far you would like the awning to extend)

Our team will review your photos and sizes and advise on the most suitable awning for your space, along with a guide price based on your requirements before arranging your home survey.

Don’t worry if your measurements aren’t exact – photos and approximate sizes are perfect for providing a guide price.

Spoke with Sam at John’s Blinds in Wickford as my roller blind chain had broken. Popped into the store and Sam fixed it in a couple of minutes. Refused to take any money from me too. More places should have customer service like this. Would thoroughly recommend. Cheers Sam 👍🏻

We had our new curtains installed yesterday and we are absolutely thrilled with them! Our experience with using Johns Blinds & Curtains has been great from start to finish! Excellent service, great communication, and fantastic attention to detail. The quality of the curtains is amazing and they have completely transformed the room. The installation was done perfectly- thank you Sam & Matt- and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. We would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality curtains and outstanding service.

I was given great advice by their surveyor and then the fitter did an excellent job too. Both very professional and clearly took real pride in their work. The blinds look amazing and were more competitively priced than the other companies who quoted me. I will definitely be using them again and can highly recommend John’s Blinds and Curtains.
