We had a great experience with W.A. Zimmer. Our designer was Adam Blinn, who did a great job showing us what we were looking for. Our installers were Jesse and Mike who were very nice and explained everything they were going to do. They started at 8am and were done by five. We have lived at our home for 25 years and we should have done this way back then!
It is so much cooler on our deck, which makes it so nice to go outside more and just sit there and enjoy😁
We are really pleased with our new electric awning. It was exactly as described. It arrived early and the installation team, Justin and Preston, could not have been more helpful.
Thanks for the great job.
Everyone at W.A. Zimmer was so friendly, professional and easy to work with. Our designer, John, did a fantastic job with our project and customized everything to exactly what we wanted. Our installers, Justin and Gabe, did a phenomenal job also - our new operable pergola is just perfect. We highly recommend this company for improvements to your outdoor living spaces!
We recently remover a 25 year old wooden pergola that the birds, squirrels and weather were destroying. In its place, we now have a beautiful pergola created by W.A.Zimmer. Our patio is circular in shape so the process was challenging but the result is beautiful. This was a wonderful company to work with. Thank you for creating our own little get away.
