Your Awning Is The Canopy Of Your Brand

Posted on May 24, 2018May 18, 2018

You’ve built your brand from scratch, laid out considerable cash, output kilowatts of personal energy, and have the best products and services around, so don’t let cleanliness be your downfall. Dirty awning can turn customers away.

Have you ever been to a restaurant that had dirty restrooms? We’re sure you’d agree that it sullies the whole dining experience no matter how good the food is. We take in this kind of information subconsciously and consciously we make sweeping judgements all the time. A dirty washroom makes you wonder if everything behind the scenes is dirty and possibly unsafe and it may be sending the message of poor quality and low standards. What judgements do you think people make about dirty awnings?

Awning Cleaning

You may well have seen our awning cleaning teams working across Vancouver. Both smaller businesses and high end luxury stores both know the value of a clean awning.

Cleaning an awning yourself may seem like a difficult task and in some cases, even for professionals, it is. It mostly comes down to what chemicals to use and on what kind of soiling, how to access the canopy, and whether there is a water source nearby. How long it has been since it was last cleaned also makes a difference when it comes to giving it a fresh clean. A professional awning cleaner deals with these issues so frequently that there’s very rarely an awning that can’t be cleaned.

If after reading this, you notice that your awning could do with a tidy up, give our team a call to get a free quote, or schedule in your next awning cleaning appointment.

We’ve been using IMAGINE Maintenance to do the annual top to bottom high dusting and window cleaning at our North Vancouver retail shopping center for 5 years. They have a proven track record for understanding our needs, planning ahead, staffing appropriately, and coming to the job prepared. They’ve proven time and again that they can meet our expectations on time and have provided valuable insight to the condition of our building above what we thought we already knew. Their clean uniforms and pleasant demeanour make them easy to identify and communicate with and their approach to customer service has made it very easy to sort out any discrepancies with minimal fuss. I have no reservations about recommending IMAGINE Maintenance to manage any property cleaning project.

We began our relationship with IMAGINE Maintenance in 2013 when we started piecing out the more complex components of our maintenance projects to outside companies. We soon recognized the value in their service and their ability to adapt to our clients’ strict security, record keeping, and trades policies. They have had challenging logistics to work with and deadlines to meet and have proven to be more than capable. They conduct themselves professionally and with an emphasis on safety, which is of utmost concern for our organization. We continue to rely on IMAGINE when large challenging projects emerge and have every confidence in their ability to deliver. I recommend they be given serious consideration for your project.

I had the IMAGINE team clean my fabric awnings on my home. They returned my email very promptly and set up an appt to give me an estimate for the cost of the work. Initial contact to arrival was within a few days. After that, they provided me with an estimate that I felt was very reasonable and told them to proceed with the work. Again from the time I gave the go ahead to the service appointment, it was all within a week. Very efficient. Two men arrived and carried out the work within 1.5 hours. They were pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. I will have them return when my awnings will be in need of service again. I would recommend this company as my experience with them was 100%. I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Our commercial building is comprised of mixed use tenancies which consist of mainly high-end retail. Thus, appearance is extremely important. We recently contracted IMAGINE Maintenance to clean the awnings at the retail level and found their work to be coordinated efficiently and completed in a timely manner which reduced any inconvenience for our tenants. Their cleaning methods made the awnings appear almost brand new. We would definitely recommend this company.

After reviewing several contractors’ proposals we hired IMAGINE Maintenance to perform the exterior window cleaning services at our newest facility on Hastings St. Due to a lack of anchors on the roof, preventing rope-style window cleaning, the previous company was only able to clean the first four floors of our six-floor building. They presented us with a proposal that utilized aerial lifts and ensured that every window would be properly cleaned. Also, their proposal included relevant insurance and WCB documentation, combined with a price that met our budget. I was confident we made the right choice. The work was scheduled for a weekend when we are less busy. The crew did a great job and they even managed to clean the difficult to access windows in the alley. I would not hesitate to recommend IMAGINE Maintenance, we have already booked them for next year!

IMAGINE Maintenance has been maintaining the windows at our flagship location since our grand opening in 2010. Not only was it important to us that our chosen vendor be competitively priced, reliable, insured and with good references, but also to provide a plan for safe work around our inventory. IMAGINE has delivered on every promise and will continue to be our trusted window cleaning vendor.
