With the passage of time, awnings may lose their main characteristics, especially if they have not been properly maintained. Unbound fabrics, loss of color, cracked, pierced, too dirty … are some of the symptoms that reveal that you must renew the awning. At Toldos Guardamar we are aware of the importance of a product like these and we want to give you some tips so that your awning lasts longer.
No matter what the awning that you have currently installed, in Toldos Guardamar you will find a whole universe of different proposals that will adapt to what you need, regardless of whether it is a pergola style awning, foldable, etc.
Nobody likes to have an awning that does not properly perform its function as well as that does not repel the rain, allows the rays of the sun to pass due to open seams, etc. To this we must add the aesthetic component, which makes the place where the awning is installed very shabby. Do you really want something like that?
The duration of the awning depends on the quality it has. It is not the same to buy a simple awning in any establishment than to do it in a firm specialized in this kind of products.
It also influences the use that is given, if only used during the summer season or used throughout the year, if the place where it is installed receives many hours of sunshine per year, is wet or windy, in this case they are factors that influence the duration of an awning.
In order to last longer you have to provide correct maintenance. The canvas should be brushed correctly every two or three days to prevent the accumulation of dirt. If any stain is detected, it should be cleaned quickly. In case it gets wet you have to wait for it to dry before picking it up to avoid that moisture and mold form and, something very important, provide periodic reviews.
