This is a real retractable awning & motorized screen project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated December 18, 2023. Total project cost: $5,563.
Estimate breakdown for a retractable awning project totaling $5,563 in Centerville, Ohio: 2 units, including 10×8 ft, prepared in December 2023.
Compared to the 2,713-project national dataset, this $5,563 estimate ranks below average — specifically the 44th percentile. The national median is $5,793 and the average is $6,811, so this project comes in 18% below the mean. Within Ohio specifically, the average across 24 comparable projects is $5,169 — making this estimate 8% above the local norm. That works out to roughly $40.92 per square foot of coverage.
Specifications include Bronze frame, HOGAN FLAME 14617-0000 / Solar fabric, Nano 95 mesh, Motor control. Project scope (1 units) is smaller than the typical 1.1-unit retractable awning project. Per-unit cost on this estimate is $5,563, below the $6,192 national per-unit average.
For context, Ohio homeowners installing a awning are working with humid summers, cold winters, and a long shoulder season. That shapes what specs actually matter: wind rating (moderate, higher near Lake Erie), UV-stable fabrics (moderate), and corrosion-resistant hardware where salt-air or humidity is present.The HOGAN FLAME 14617-0000 fabric on this estimate is a reasonable match for humid continental conditions — solution-dyed acrylics resist the moderate typical of Ohio better than vinyl, and shed humidity well. Motor controls are a sensible spec given moderate, higher near Lake Erie in this region — retraction during severe weather is the single biggest predictor of long-term awning life. Estimating in the winter of 2023 is typical for Ohio — most awning installations book in the shoulder months, when installer availability is better and material lead times shorten to 3–6 weeks.
