“AJ Shades did an outstanding job installing our retractable awning. From the initial consultation through the final installation, the communication was excellent. They kept us informed every step of the way, showed up when they said they would, and answered all of our questions. The installation was professional and efficient, and the finished product exceeded our expectations. The awning looks fantastic, operates smoothly, and has made our patio much more comfortable to enjoy throughout the day. You can tell they use quality materials and take pride in their workmanship. If you're looking for a company that's reliable, professional, and delivers a great product, I highly recommend AJ Shades. We couldn't be happier with the entire experience!”
“AJ Shades did an excellent job installing our new motorized awning. From the first conversation to the final installation, the process was professional, clear, and easy. The awning looks great, works smoothly, and has completely changed how we use our patio. We were impressed with the quality of the materials, the Somfy motor, the built-in lighting, and the clean installation. You can tell this is not a cheap temporary shade product. It feels solid, looks high-end, and makes the backyard much more comfortable. Tony and the AJ Shades team were knowledgeable, respectful, and took the time to explain everything. We are very happy with the finished product and would definitely recommend AJ Shades to anyone looking for a premium retractable awning.”
“I appreciated that AJ Shades offered financing options. We wanted a better quality awning but didn't want to settle for something cheap just because of the upfront cost. The final product looks great and feels solid.”
