For over a century, Durkin’s has been designing and producing high-quality shading and custom fabric products for a wide range of commercial and residential applications. We’re proud to be a 5th-generation, family-owned company based in the Fairfield County area.

What started as an awning company in 1904 has grown into a full-service custom manufacturer, providing everything from motorized pergolas, awnings and louvered roof systems to flags, boat lift covers, tent rentals, environmental and decontamination enclosures, and more—serving customers across Danbury, Stamford, Ridgefield, and throughout Connecticut and New York.

Truck covers and tarpaulins are just the beginning.

With deep expertise in vinyl, fabric, and mesh manufacturing, we can custom-produce solutions built to meet your exact needs. If you have an idea for a custom product, give us a call—we’ll take the time to review your project, provide guidance, and deliver a clear estimate.

Service & Repair

Durkin’s offers– full annual service, repairs, replacement covers and cleaning in Danbury, Stamford, Ridgefield and all throughout Connecticut and New York.

—   Seasonal Installation + Removal

Seasonal installation in the spring and removal in the fall has been a core part of our business since day one. We take full responsibility for the entire process—carefully removing, inspecting, storing, and reinstalling your fabric awning(s) so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

To make scheduling easy, we’re structured to service each town twice in the fall and twice in the spring, giving you flexibility and reliable yearly coverage. Customers throughout Greater Danbury, Ridgefield, and Stamford trust Durkin’s for premium service and dependable results.

If an urgent issue comes up, we also respond to emergencies—especially in Greater Danbury, where immediate service may be available.

—   Replacement covers

Replacement covers are typically addressed during fall removal. At that time, we evaluate each awning and, if we find that a recover is recommended, we’ll contact you with a detailed proposal.

Fall is the ideal time to move forward—off-season fabric pricing often allows for better value, and it gives us the time needed to re-fabricate your new cover so it’s ready for spring installation.

If you own a fabric awning in Greater Danbury, we invite you to visit our showroom and meet with our design team to explore the latest architectural fabric options.

—    Repairs

Repairs to seasonal awning covers are often handled at the time of fall removal. We complete any needed adjustments over the winter so your awning is ready for spring installation.

For commercial, retractable, and fixed awning systems, our team performs a full evaluation and provides a clear report outlining recommended repairs, pricing, and expected timing. Once approved, we schedule a service visit to your site and complete the work efficiently and professionally.

Our goal is simple: to make the process easy and take the pressure off our customers.

—   Winter cleaning

Winter awning cleaning has been a growing part of our business for decades—and with over 110 years of experience, we know how to restore fabric awnings the right way. In Greater Danbury and throughout Connecticut, exposure to the elements can leave awnings looking faded, stained, or weathered. With a regular cleaning routine, your awning(s) can look like new again.

Because some cleaning methods can be too aggressive depending on fabric type and color, we may recommend cleaning every 2–3 years rather than annually. Our team will help determine the best cleaning schedule and care approach for your specific awning.

In many cases, outdoor cushions, umbrellas, and other fabric items may also qualify for cleaning—just ask.

Please note: cleaning services are performed during the winter months only. In early spring, our crews are dedicated to seasonal installations throughout Connecticut and New York.
