Your Burlington Patio Deserves Better Than an Umbrella
Summer in Burlington is genuinely spectacular. The waterfront along Lakeshore Road, the views from the Brant Street Pier, the breeze rolling off Lake Ontario — it’s why people pay a premium to live here. But that same southwestern exposure means south- and west-facing yards in Aldershot, Roseland, and Shoreacres get brutalized by afternoon sun. Your patio becomes a heat trap by 2pm. The lake breeze keeps it warm enough to stay outside — but without shade, it’s unbearable.
A retractable awning extends your outdoor season by months. Deploy it when the afternoon sun turns your deck into a griddle. Retract it in the evening to catch the lake breeze and watch the sunset over the escarpment. It’s the most versatile shade solution Burlington homeowners have found — and it installs in a single day.
Above All Awnings has been installing retractable awnings across Burlington since 1995 from waterfront properties in Shoreacres and LaSalle, to newer builds in Millcroft, Orchard, and Headon Forest. Our Burlington-area manufacturing partner is nearby, which means faster lead times and local accountability on every project.

Types of Retractable Awnings We Install in Burlington
Whether you want push-button convenience or a simple hand crank, we have a retractable awning that fits your patio and budget.
Open Roll Awnings
The industry standard for high-quality shade protection. Our Adalia Open Roll awnings are manufactured locally in Vaughan, ON and built from extruded, thermally treated aluminum that’s immune to corrosion. Available with or without a heavy-duty hood cover, these awnings are vastly customizable to fit your exact space.
Starting at $3,500 installed.
Manual Retractable Awnings
A reliable, cost-effective choice that uses a simple hand crank to extend and retract. Manual awnings use the same premium frames and Sunbrella® fabrics as our motorized models—without the motor cost. Perfect for smaller patios and decks.
Starting at $3,500 installed.
Motorized Retractable Awnings
Extend or retract your awning at the touch of a button. Motorized models use whisper-quiet Somfy motors and can include built-in wind and sun sensors for fully automatic operation—your awning protects itself even when you’re not home.
Starting at $4,500 installed.
Cassette Awnings
The ultimate in retractable awning technology. Cassette models feature a fully enclosed aluminum housing that protects the fabric, arms, and motor when retracted. Ideal for homes that want maximum durability and a clean, sleek appearance on the exterior.
Starting at $5,500 installed.

Perfect 5.0-Star Rating
Every project we take on in Burlington gets the same attention as our very first install. Our 136+ Google reviews speak for themselves — and we’re proud that not a single one is below 5 stars.
Custom-Sized to Your Space
No two Burlington homes are the same — from the narrow lots near downtown to the sprawling properties in Tyandaga and Roseland. We measure every project on-site and build to your exact dimensions, not a catalogue size.
Our Own Installation Crew
We don’t subcontract. Jamie, Alistair, and Tony handle every installation personally — so the people who measured your home are the same people drilling into your wall. That’s how mistakes get avoided.
Premium Fabrics Built for Ontario
We use Sunbrella and Sattler solution-dyed acrylic fabrics — the same materials specified by architects and designers across Ontario. They’re UV-stable, water-resistant, and rated to handle Burlington’s lakeside climate year after year.
Local Manufacturing
Our Burlington-area manufacturing partner means your awning is made nearby, not shipped from overseas. Shorter lead times, easier warranty service, and a supply chain that doesn’t depend on container ships.
Jamie Handles Your Project Personally
From your first phone call to the final install, Jamie Brow is your point of contact. No call centres, no project managers, no confusion. One person who knows your project inside and out.
Brands & Materials We Trust
We partner with industry leaders so every awning we install performs beautifully for years.
All our fabrics are solution-dyed acrylic—fade-resistant, water-repellent, and backed by a 10-year fabric warranty. Frames are powder-coated marine-grade aluminum that won’t rust or corrode. Available in over 200 colours and patterns.
What Our Burlington Customers Say
Hear from homeowners across Burlington and the GTA who chose Above All Awnings.
Above All Awnings went out of their way to make sure we were happy with our awning purchase including a few site visits and custom mounting creation. Crew were friendly, polite and efficient. Amazing experience and quality product!
Super pleased with our new awning. The entire experience with Above All Awnings was great from our first consultation with Jamie to the installation with Alistair and Tony. Jamie is fantastic, really amazing to deal with. He helped us with choosing our awning and was very patient. Alistair and Tony were exceptional. The awning looks quite modern and really complements our outdoor space.
After years of failed gazebos and umbrellas due to high winds, I decided to look into a retractable awning. Jamie answered all of my questions in great detail. The installation was done so quickly and smoothly. I was so happy with how it looked, the ease of use, and most importantly the shade.

Why a Retractable Awning Is the Best Shade Solution for Burlington
Burlington sits at a climate crossroads where Lake Ontario moderates temperatures but creates a real solar exposure problem for south-facing properties. Homes along Lakeshore Road, in Shoreacres, and on the waterfront blocks east of Brant Street face full afternoon sun with nothing to break it. By mid-July, these patios are unusable between noon and 5pm. Even inland in Roseland and Mountainside, the July heat index pushes into uncomfortable territory by early afternoon.
Unlike pergolas — which require permits, footings, and sometimes City review for setbacks — a retractable awning installs in hours with no permit required under Burlington’s current residential code. Full shade when the sun is brutal, full open sky when you want to stargaze on a clear August evening. For most Burlington lots, it’s the smarter investment by a significant margin.
Burlington’s proximity to the lake means fabrics face higher humidity than inland cities. We use Sunbrella and Sattler solution-dyed acrylics exclusively — engineered to resist mold, mildew, and UV degradation for 10+ years, even on waterfront properties. Frames are powder-coated aluminum: no rust, no pitting, no corrosion.
For Burlington homeowners who’ve invested in stone patios, built-in BBQs, or multi-level decks overlooking the escarpment, a retractable awning is the finishing piece that makes it all usable. Our Burlington clients consistently report using their patios 60–70% more after installation. That’s not a small improvement — it’s the difference between owning outdoor space and actually living in it.
