Enhance Your Outdoor Comfort with Custom Awnings
At Express Sunrooms of San Antonio, we design and install high-quality awnings that bring shade, comfort, and style to your outdoor spaces. Whether you're looking to cool down your patio, protect your windows, or create a more inviting space to relax, our awnings are built to match your needs and your home's aesthetic. With a wide selection of fabrics, colors, and frame options—including motorized and manual systems—you’ll get a custom solution that fits both function and design. Enjoy cooler temperatures, sun protection, and a more usable outdoor area all year round.
What Type of Awnings Do You Want for Your Home?
Choosing the right fabric for your awning is key to balancing style, performance, and longevity in your outdoor space. Woven Acrylic fabrics offer a soft, cloth-like feel with vibrant color retention, making them a popular choice for homeowners who want a high-end look with excellent UV resistance. Laminated Fabrics provide a waterproof surface with a sleek finish, ideal for those who want full rain protection and easy cleaning. Performance Acrylic combines durability and breathability, designed to withstand harsh conditions while staying cool and comfortable beneath. And for top-tier quality, Sunbrella Fabric is known for its fade resistance, mildew protection, and premium feel—built to last for years without sacrificing beauty. No matter which material you choose, each awning fabric can be tailored to match your home’s design and outdoor lifestyle.

We have heard too many stories of contractors who quoted a low price only to keep increasing the price throughout the project. We guarantee this will never happen with us!
We believe in full transparency and standing by our word. The estimate you receive is the price you will pay. Everything, including the materials that will be used, the timeframe for construction and the full price of the project is given in writing upfront before construction begins.
