The crew at WoodenSun is fantastic! I have been shopping for a woodstove for 2 years and was frustrated with my lack of answers until I found Wooden Sun. Their sales staff members were patient, and thoroughly explained multiple options that could work for my needs. They made a site visit to my home to help plan the project, but my plan was not approved by my neighborhood’s ARB. Subsequently, Jonathan made 2 more visits to my home- quite a way from their store to help me “re-tool” my plan. They made 3 visits to my home before the first dollar was ever exchanged! I’m sure it doesn’t normally take 3 site visits to get a project like mine planned, but they patiently stood by me when I hit a “bump in the road” with the ARB. Our stove is now installed and fully functional- wow, we are using it even more than we thought we would. I wish that I’d bought it years ago. Wooden Sun is highly recommended-you won’t be disappointed!

Awning Service
- Does my awning require ongoing maintenance?
While an awning isn’t as complicated as, say, a gas stove, it’s important to look it over periodically, and to practice basic maintenance to keep it in the best shape possible. See our blog post on awning maintenance for more information on how to keep your awning frame and fabric ship-shape and Bristol fashion.
- My awning’s in good shape, but the motor/remote has stopped working. Can you replace it?
In many cases, yes. Most awnings use one of a few different motor brands, so we can often track down exactly what you need. However, as with all our appliances, some manufacturers will not provide tech support or their proprietary parts to dealers who do not sell their products. While we will work on brands we don’t sell, we cannot guarantee that we can completely solve your problem.
- My awning works fine, but the fabric’s faded/torn/not what I want anymore. Can you replace the fabric?”
Again, the answer is often, but not always, yes. Our manufacturers sell their awning fabric by the yard, and can ship the re-cover material cut, sewn, and ready to be installed on your awning frame. However, if it’s not one of the brands we carry, we’ll have to get photos and measurements so that we can see if our manufacturers are able to work to those specifications.
