Awnings by Valverax LLC
We provide installation and servicing of awnings and retractable shades for Charlotte-area homes throughout North Carolina and South Carolina.
Adding an awning to a window, porch, deck, or balcony lets you enjoy your outdoor space in more conditions while reducing direct sun exposure.
Where Awnings Help Most
Window and Door Awnings
Window and door awnings add curb appeal while lowering heat gain indoors. On west-facing windows, awnings can reduce heat entering the home by up to 77% according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
Porch, Deck, and Balcony Awnings
Awnings create cooler outdoor spaces and help block harmful UV rays, so you can stay outside longer. They also provide rain protection so your outdoor plans are less weather-dependent.
Popular Awning Types
Retractable Awnings
Retractable systems are easy to operate and open on demand for shade, helping block up to 94% of the sun's UV rays when extended.
Retractable Canopies
Canopies can be freestanding or wall-mounted for patios, pool areas, roof gardens, terraces, and more. Optional side curtains can add privacy and extra sun protection.
