Our latest blog covers some simple jobs you can do now to close down your summer garden and get everything ready for the colder months, including how to look after your awning before winter.

A little preparation now can save a lot of work when spring rolls around again.

There comes a point every September when you realise the garden has started to change. The evenings are getting darker, you're reaching for a jumper much earlier than you were a few weeks ago, and those long summer evenings outside suddenly feel like they're disappearing far too quickly. But closing...

Got an awkward window and assumed shutters wouldn't work?

Don't write them off just yet.

One of the best things about made-to-measure shutters is just how versatile they are. Bays, sash windows, arches, unusual shapes and even doors can all potentially be fitted with shutters designed specifically for the space.

Which awning is actually right for your home?

It's easy to start with colour and fabric, but there's quite a bit more to think about.

How much shade do you want? How far should your awning project? Where does the sun hit your garden? Would you prefer electric, solar-powered or manual operation? And are extras such as lighting, heating or a front valance worthwhile for the way you use your space?

We've created a guide to choosing the right awning for your home, taking you through the things worth considering before you make your decision.

If an awning is on your list for next year, there's no harm in starting your research now:

🌿 Make More of Your Garden

It should be somewhere you love spending time.

An awning is a simple way to create another 'room' outside, giving you a comfortable space for family meals, entertaining friends or simply unwinding at the end of the day.

With optional extras such as integrated lighting, heating and front valances for additional shade and privacy, your awning can be tailored to suit the way you live.

We install UK-manufactured awnings, including solar-powered options, with a typical lead time of around two weeks.
