I had a 16'x24' deck built off the back of my house in March, it was great untill late June, it got so hot during the summer months that I couldn't use it. One day I was sitting outback with a friend under the tree in the shade having a cold one looking at my beautifulI deck that was to hot to enjoy. I had to do something, my buddy goes did you think about an awning, well I just looked at him. The rest is history as they say. These people where great, professonal, reasonable, clean, quick and had years of experiance. The wife, myself and the rest of the family spend more time together now then we every did thanks to DIAMOND AWNING MFG.
