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.

Was extremely impressed by Matt who first came to the house to measure up for window blinds and velux blinds. He brought a variety of sample booklets which was brilliant. And his measurement were 100% perfect. Then very impressed by Steve who came to fit and put up all the blinds. He was very friendly, informative and professional and left absolutely no mess at all. A job well done by true professionals.
