How Long do Canvas Awnings Last?

How Long do Canvas Awnings Last?Canvas awnings have long been a popular choice for homeowners looking for shading solutions for their backyards, patios, decks, or pool areas. It is no surprise that they have been commonly selected due to their low starting price; however, before installing a canvas awning on your home, make sure to ask yourself the question: how long do canvas awnings actually last? Unfortunately, the answer is not as long as you’d like them to. The canvas material utilized in these awnings are made entirely out of cotton fibers which makes them much weaker and unable to withstand all of the common weather elements experienced throughout the country. So, if you don’t want an awning that is susceptible to mold, mildew, rot, tears, and fading, consider investing in an acrylic fabric awning instead.
