A lot of customers often ask us, how do I clean and care for my awning? Whilst all of our awnings are high quality and long-lasting, you will still need to maintain your awning to keep it looking its best.
Cleaning your awning is not a huge task and is something you should aim to do at the beginning and end of the summer season. By doing this you will start your summer season with a clean awning and will prevent any damage to it whilst it is rolled up during winter months when it may not be in use often. It is also a good idea to give it a good hose down once a month during the summer months to remove any loose debris.
There are 3 simple steps you need to follow to give your awning a deep clean.
1. Using soapy warm water, wipe down your awning. If it is heavily stained you can purchase specialist awning shampoo. Do not use any harsh chemicals or bleach.
2. Using a soft-bristled brush to give your awning a good scrub to work any dirt off gently. Do not scrub too hard as this can cause damage.
3. Allow the awning to completely dry naturally.
