Tennis Court Canopies
Awnings Houston did an outstanding job when we needed shade for tennis court bleachers. They are very well built and came in below budget. The whole project was done even before the last bid came it. I just laughed when I got the last bid because by then....the job was done!

The BEST custom awning company, services all areas
We completed a new patio cover that left us with an area by the gate that it still rained on. This was a very challenging project and Kennon and Juan did an unbelievable job. Kennon provided an immediate idea when I contacted him and followed thru with a custom awning and screens for the iron gate also. Very professional and courteous company.
Back-Lit awnings did an excellent job!!
We recently replaced all our awnings at the Fulshear Town Center with new ones. Back-Lit awnings did an excellent job! Kennon was always very prompt and courteous. We will be using them for all our future awnings needs. Thanks Back-Lit awnings, for making this such a painless process!!

Back-lit Awnings did a great job for and delivered and installed exactly what we ordered. The lead time from order to installation of one month was longer than we expected but understandable due to the sewing involved. Thanks!

Total refresh, signs and awnings
We updated all the signage on our building, including new awnings. They look fabulous and are very well manufactured. You can see the quality when you look at our building. We decided to go with the upgraded gore-tex thread so that we will get long term wear. I could not be more pleased with the results.I am sure you will find this a great place to do your awnings and sign work.

Very happy with the quality of my awnings & how quick we got it.
The quality of my new awning is very nice. Was wondering how it would come out since it was a complex job in my eyes. Kennon was able to quote us very quickly and actually came in below budget. The project went smooth and it turned out better than I expected. I would highly recommend this company and I've actually already referred them to a long time business friend that was also in the market for a fabric canopy.
BACKYARD AWNINGS
Loved to work with Back-Lit awnings & Canvas. They did a great job for us doing a canvas protection curtain for our outside kitchen area, nice awnings over our patio doors in the back, and a patio umbrella repair..!@
We were really happy - seeing as the job turned out perfect!
Highly recommend this group!@
Excellent quality awnings!!!
Our awning at our Donut shop in Pearland had to be replaced. Very courteous and professional awning company. I would advise anyone who needs a new awning to call this then.
Tennis Court Awnings
Back-Lit Awnings & Canvas provided excellent service during the design, construction and installation of the awnings requested. They met all of the deadlines and worked with other contractors and the owner's schedule to coordinate the timing of the installation. They did a tremendous job and I would recommend them to anyone in need of awnings.
Unequaled Worknanship, Service, Price
Repeat customer ....never been disappointed, Kennon's standards are the highest in his industry...
