SPRING AWNING SEASON
WEATHER PERMITTING…
Installation will begin mid to late March or early April and continue through mid June. We will make every effort to have your awnings installed by Father’s Day. If your awnings are stored at your home, you MUST call to schedule for installation. If your awnings are stored at Kaplan’s, your awnings will be installed automatically. All special requests require a phone call and a minimum 4 weeks notice.
A PHONE CALL IS REQUIRED IF:
1. March or April is too early.
Note: If our men have started installing your awnings, and you ask them to stop because you feel it is too early, you may be charged for a service call.
2. Work is being done on your property and awning installation would be inconvenient.
3. You are having a Party or Special Event
Please Note:
We do not accept installation requests for a specific day, week or 2-week period. We will only accept requests by month.
Ex. If you want your awnings up by the middle of May, request an April installation.
If you have moved or no longer own the property, please contact our office immediately.
