You didn’t choose those awnings just for shade. Maybe it’s the look, the protection from sun, the extension of your patio or storefront identity. They’re part of your space, and they deserve more than a quick hose down.

With Atlanta Awning Cleaners, you get more than cleaning, you get decades of experience, care, and real proof that we know what keeps awnings performing well for the long haul.

• Serving North Georgia since 1992 – Founded by Mikel Simon, now led by his son Joel, our team has been dedicated to quality, integrity, and customer satisfaction for 30+ years.
• Licensed & trusted – We carry a Walton County Occupational Tax Certificate (#25-0225) and operate with transparency and reliability across residential and commercial jobs.
• Real customer proof – Reviews consistently highlight how we exceed expectations—not just cleaning, but explaining, restoring, and handling delicate fabrics. One customer from Marietta wrote, “They worked over two full days cleaning, rewiring and sealing three awnings … and made them look like new.”

• Low-pressure cleaning methods. Many fabric awnings can be permanently damaged by high pressure or harsh detergents. Industry guides recommend keeping rinsing pressure moderate (for many fabrics under ~300 psi) and using soft brushes or scrubbing tools only where appropriate.
• Materials made for awnings – We use eco-savvy biodegradable cleaners, mild soaps, sealants that protect against UV, mildew, and environmental wear. These aren’t generic cleaners you find at any hardware store, they’re chosen for safety and durability.
• Proper drying & sealing – Cleaning isn’t enough. Moisture can be trapped inside the fabric or seams; if sealing is done too early or improperly, it can lead to damage, hazing, mildew. Our processes take drying times and material types into account so the sealing actually adds years, not problems.

When your awning has issues, whether fabric tears, frame damage, or retractable mechanisms failing, we don’t just patch things; we evaluate everything that needs to be done, explain the options, and use high-quality replacement parts and methods.

Often, we’re able to save an awning that might otherwise be discarded or fully replaced, preserving your investment.

Details Matter

• We always rinse down surrounding areas, no splatter, no chemical smell left behind. We believe your patio, entry, sidewalk should look as clean as the awning itself when we’re done.
• Minor debris removal is included, wasp nests, spider webs, leaves, because these small things degrade your awning’s fabric or promote mildew.
• Light tree trimming when branches are interfering with structure or shade. We want the awning shielded from things that cause damage, not accelerate it.
• Transparent communication. From quoting to explaining what we see during the job, you’ll have clarity. No hidden fees, no surprise damage.

We promise that:

• We protect your awning’s materials, structure, and appearance, using methods that are backed by decades of experience.
• We’ll treat your property exactly how we’d want ours treated. Clean, respectful, careful.
• We’ll communicate openly, what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, the costs, what to expect.
• We stand behind our work – quality cleaning, sealing, repair with warranties where appropriate for example, on sealants or repair labor.

A homeowner in Roswell booked us for a routine awning cleaning. During our inspection, our technician discovered that the spline, the cord that anchors the canvas to its frame, had pulled loose, compromising both tension and structural integrity.

 

Why The Spline Matters

The spline is essential for maintaining even fabric tension, supporting load distribution, and resisting wind damage. A loose spline can lead to sagging, fabric creases, and accelerated wear, a common issue noted in industry maintenance recommendations.

 

Suggested Options & Homeowner Decision

We initially offered a full canvas replacement, which can cost between $800 to over $1,000, depending on size and material.

The homeowner preferred a repair-first approach, which aligned with our recommendations when the fabric quality and structure remain intact.

 

Our step‑by‑step repair process

• Removed the canvas from the frame and brought it to our workshop.
• Carefully unstitched a section to access the compromised spline.
• Extracted the old spline and installed a high-quality replacement spline matched to the correct diameter and tension standards.
• Re‑stitched the canvas per factory spec and reinstalled it with precise alignment.

 

Impact & cost‑savings

This exacting repair saved the homeowner over $1,000 compared to full canvas replacement and avoided unnecessary waste.

Timely spline maintenance like this alone prevents sagging and structural deterioration, significantly extending awning lifespan and delaying replacement.

Industry estimates show that proactive repairs often cost a fraction of replacement labor and materials, which can run from $800 to $1,500+ in labor hours for more extensive projects.
