Motorized Patio Awnings Built for Alabama Living

Motorized patio awnings are one of the most effective ways to improve your outdoor living space. At Alabama Porch & Patio, we install custom Sunesta® retractable awnings that offer reliable sun protection, on-demand shade, and long-term performance for homes across Alabama — including Birmingham, Pelham, Tuscaloosa, and surrounding communities.

Whether you’re looking to stay cooler in the summer, protect your outdoor furniture, or add more function to your patio or deck, a professionally installed motorized awning offers a practical, long-lasting solution.

Why Homeowners Choose Motorized Patio Awnings

Year-Round Sun Protection

Alabama summers can be intense. A high-quality motorized awning provides instant shade and significantly reduces heat and UV exposure on your patio. It’s a smart way to enjoy your outdoor space more comfortably, all year long.

Convenient and Customizable

With motorized control, you can extend or retract your awning with the push of a button. Add- ons like wind sensors, LED lighting, and pitch adjustment make your awning work exactly the way you need it to — morning, noon, or evening.

Enhances Outdoor Living

A well-designed patio awning adds value, increases curb appeal, and creates a more inviting space for family and friends. It’s a functional upgrade that also improves how your home looks and feels from the outside.

We hired Mark to build a screen porch with sunspace 3 season windows and it was a great decision. The craftsmanship is perfection. From the design to the build, we were truly impressed. It was a first class experience and good value for the money spent too!

Tiffany J.

Absolutely the best deck design/build firm in Birmingham. They built and composite deck for us. We were very impressed with the entire operation from start to finish. We would give them 10 stars if we could.

This team did a outstanding job! The deck and fence turned out exactly how we wanted it! The team was friendly, respectful, and worked at a fast pace. I look forward to hiring them for projects in the future. I highly recommend these guys.

We have worked with a lot of home-improvement companies over the years and this is by far one of the best. The owner is so nice and professional. They showed up on time every single day, cleaned up after themselves and finished the project on time and on budget. The craftsmanship is impeccable. We recommend this company to everyone.
