Top Tier workmanship and design! This was a big decision for me, and I am over the moon with the outcome. I was able to get the exact design I wanted. Best upscale improvement decision ever!! Cannot thank the team at Central Valley Awnings enough.

Has not finished my friends project, despite having been paid the initial portion. We are past the day the project should have been done. Edit: The payment was made for the layout of the patio, which should have been completed 8 weeks ago. The project is not complete and should have been done this past weekend.

Ok, so this patio cover project required special engineering that has taken two months to do! We had to hire out a third party to engineer this awning it’s so unique! I wish we could’ve done it sooner, but your friend knew this when we signed the contract. And we are talking about Hanford, one of the strictest cities when it come to permits and rules. We apologize for the wait, but some times it cannot be avoided

Let me just start and say this company BLEW US AWAY! Bill and Jeremiah couldn’t run this business any better. They’re amazing. From the estimate to the install it ran like a well oiled machine. This crew is a TEAM! I mean one second there was a beam and 2 posts and the next they were DONE! The patio is beautiful. Thank you guys for absolutely everything!

We recently had Central Valley Awning in stall a roof mounted awning 14 foot deep and 50 foot long. They were great to deal with from start to finish. The decision process was a breeze and showed up exactly when they said they would and completed our project in record time. The staff were all great to deal with and a pleasure to to have on site. Would definitely recommend and if we ever have the need for another awning they would be hands down my first phone call! Their prices were by far better than anyone else and the work was top notch!
