Testimonials

What our customers are saying

M M from Google Reviews

Decided to go with Dacraft after getting two other bids for patio awnings that weren’t even close to what Roger quoted. Plus, two family members used them for their awnings and were completely thrilled. They were busy, but got out to us as soon as possible. They worked with a few design adjustments we made - some of which were last-minute. The work itself was done quickly and quietly over two days; with a two-man crew that cleaned up after themselves very well and were very cordial and respectful. The resulting awning structure is absolutely amazing. My wife, kids and I have enjoyed every minute of our new patio experience. It has held up extremely well during several hard Ohio summer rainstorms, and is surprisingly quiet; even during the hardest rainfall. Zero leaks. Our patio has become a place of peace and relaxation. It has become a place of gathering and all-day enjoyment. A big “Thanks” to Roger and all the folks at Dacraft for a job well done!
