What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Folding arm awnings, retractable roof systems and external blinds form the core of the work described by customers of this Melbourne specialist. Reviewers frequently point to the quality of the finished result, from the material range and mechanics through to the smooth operation of motorised units, and several note how much cooler and more comfortable their decks, balconies and conservatories became once shade was installed. A detail many reviews return to is the care taken on difficult installations, including awkward locations and complex roof situations, with clean-up afterwards described as immaculate.

The knowledge and advice provided by Sarah, Nicholas (also referred to as Nick and Nic) and Jessica are singled out, both at the quoting stage and in conversations about which product suits a particular space. Prompt follow-up stands out in the accounts, with one long-standing problem resolved on the same day it was reported, and reviewers describe the fitters as professional and the after-care service as dependable. Wind sensors, retractable sunroofs and German-made components appear in feedback as evidence of the durability and thoughtful design customers value across residential projects.

Nic was most informative and helpful when coming round to quote for a folding arm awning. Due to some issues with our roof and solar panels we decided not to proceed, but were impressed with the professionalism of him and the company.

We had a good experience, during a challenging time (covid impacted logistics). The communication and after care was solid from start to finish. Happy with the finished product and installation.

Beautiful work! I'm so happy with the final result. Installation guys were fantastic even though awnings had to be carried up 4 flights of stairs. When compared to my neighbour's awning (with ugly brackets showing per photo) my installation looks so neat. Can be long wait times, so get your order in early before summer.

Our most recently installed blinds are repeat business, which is testament in itself to our satisfaction. We have been pleased with both the advice and recommendations on equipment and materials, and also with the final installation. As an indication of scope, the previous installation of a robust awning and bistro blinds turned a north-facing open area in the centre of our house into a charming additional room with the capacity to help control heating in the winter and avoid it in the summer. This latest installation is a suite of blinds along the western verandah that have dramatically cut summertime overheating from late afternoon sun. We will be pleased to have Nich and his team involved in any of our future projects that may involve blinds and awnings.

I cannot recommend Melbourne Awning Centre enough. Their attention to details was outstanding. In particular I was most impressed with their care whilst installing in a tricky location and the immaculate clean up. Thanks guys.

I phoned them for help and their friendly, helpful staff put me onto Hayden. I phoned in the morning, he dropped by in the afternoon and the 18th month old problem was solved. Thank you so much

We had a folding arm awning installed over the back deck, even though it was a difficult installation, Nicholas and his team of professional fitters, over came all problems. We are thrilled with the outcome and look forward to many hours of out door entertaining.
