Core Services
Canvas & Fabric Replacement
Expert extraction of torn or weather-damaged fabric and precise fitting of high-durability, UV-resistant commercial canvas.
Motor Replacement
Diagnostics and replacement of burnt-out tubular motors for electric awnings. We specialize in Somfy, Markilux, and generic motor systems.
Broken Arm & Gearbox Fixes
Rapid structural repairs for snapped mechanical arms, jammed winding mechanisms, and stripped internal gearboxes.
Emergency Awning Retraction
If your awning is stuck open during severe weather, our emergency engineers will manually override the system to secure your premises.
Inquiries & FAQs
Why is my manual awning so hard to wind?
A stiff winding mechanism usually indicates a failing internal gearbox, stripped gears, or lack of lubrication. Continued forcing will snap the winder. We can replace the specific gearbox component quickly.
Can you replace just the fabric instead of the whole awning?
Yes. If the structural frame and mechanical arms are intact, we can extract the old, torn, or faded canvas and install a fresh, UV-resistant fabric, saving you the cost of a full new system.

Verified Reviews
"Our electric pub awning got stuck open during a storm. They dispatched an engineer to Ingatestone very quickly, fitted a new arm and canvas, and got us trading again. Highly recommended."
