See the Transformation
From weathered and faded to fresh and vibrant — these are real refurbishments carried out by our team.
Domestic Retractable Awning
Existing frame retained. New premium weatherproof fabric fitted — same day installation.
Domestic Dutch Canopy
Framework inspected, serviced, and re-covered. A complete transformation for a fraction of replacement cost.
Smarter Than Replacing. Here's Why.
When your existing framework is structurally sound, refurbishment is almost always the better choice — financially and environmentally.
Save Vs Full Replacement
Keep your existing framework. Pay only for new fabric, mechanisms, and any components — not a whole new awning system.
Fabric Colours & Styles
Choose from an extensive range of premium, UV-resistant outdoor fabrics. Match your new fabric to your brand, your home, or simply go bolder.
Extends Your Awning's Life
A properly refurbished awning can give your existing framework another decade or more of service — protecting your original investment.
Fast — Minimal Disruption
Most refurbishments are completed in a single day. No scaffolding, no structural work, no lengthy closures — for homes or commercial premises.
Sustainable Choice
Refurbishment dramatically reduces waste compared to full replacement. Keep your framework out of landfill and reduce your environmental footprint.
Custom Logo & Branding
For commercial clients, refurbishment is the ideal moment to refresh your brand. Add your logo, new colours, or a completely new brand identity.
Domestic & Commercial Refurbishment
Whether you're a homeowner with a tired patio awning or a business with a faded shopfront canopy — we do it all.
Bring Your Home Awning Back to Life

Rated 4.9/5 Across 300+ Reviews
"We were quoted over £3,000 for a full replacement. Artistic Blinds refurbished our existing awning for a fraction of that — and it looks completely brand new. Absolutely thrilled."
"Our café awning was looking terrible — sun-bleached and saggy. One call to Artistic Blinds and within a few weeks we had a stunning new fabric with our logo printed on it. The team were brilliant."
"I had no idea refurbishment was even an option. The team explained everything clearly, the fabric samples were great, and the installation was done in half a day. Couldn't be happier — highly recommend."
