Bird Droppings and Growth on Your Business Awnings
Seagulls near the lakes leave droppings on the awnings over your storefront, and organic growth takes hold on top. At Westfall Power Washing LLC, we clean fabric, canvas, vinyl, acrylic and metal awnings across Southern Michigan and Fort Wayne. We match the treatment to your awning's material and rinse closer on heavy spots only as far as the material allows.
Call (517) 227-4597 and we'll get the droppings and growth off.
The Fabric, Vinyl and Metal Awning Types We Clean
No two awning materials take cleaning the same way, so we set the treatment and the rinse distance by what your awning is made of.
Fabric Awnings
Fabric holds onto organic growth and bird droppings. We treat the staining directly, then work the rinse in only as close as the fabric can take.
Canvas Awnings
Canvas gets the same careful hand. We apply a treatment suited to it, lift the growth and droppings, and keep the rinse to what the material can handle.
Vinyl Awnings
Vinyl stands up well to cleaning. We treat the growth and droppings, then rinse the awning down, moving closer on stubborn spots as the vinyl allows.
Acrylic Awnings
Acrylic cleans up nicely with a material-matched treatment. We lift the organic soil and droppings, then rinse at a distance the acrylic can take.
Metal and Aluminum Awnings
Metal and aluminum panels get a treatment suited to the surface. We clear the growth and droppings and rinse the awning clean, closer where the buildup is heavy.
Why Business Owners Pick Us for Awning Cleaning
Here is what you get when your awning cleaning goes to our crew.
An Honest Call on Worn Awnings
Before we clean, we check the condition of your awning. If it's too far gone to hold up to cleaning, we'll tell you. You can put that money toward a replacement instead of paying to clean something that's ready to come down.
Your Awning and Storefront in One Trip
The runoff from an awning cleaning lands on the storefront below it anyway, so we often wash that storefront in the same visit. One crew, one trip, and the whole front of your business looks cared for.
Awning Work at Night and on Weekends
Our phones are answered around the clock, and we work nights, weekends and after hours. Your awnings get cleaned without a crew blocking the entrance while your customers are trying to come in.
Photos Before and After Every Awning
We photograph your awnings during the walkthrough before we start, keep you posted by text and email, and send matched before-and-after photos with your invoice. You get a record of the work, and nobody has to stand outside watching us do it.
Insured, Vetted Crews at Your Storefront
We're fully licensed and insured, with workers' comp and commercial auto coverage, and every technician on the crew is background-checked and drug-tested. That is who works out front of your business while your customers come and go.

How Our Awning Cleaning Process Works
From the first call to the final photo, here is how an awning cleaning goes.
The Free Estimate and Site Walkthrough
Reach out by phone, text or the online form, and our office team picks up, with a live answering service covering the gaps. For a commercial property, we come out and walk the site. You get a written estimate within two business days, often the same day. It comes with our proof of insurance and workers' comp, plus the certifications, terms and payment options that commercial work calls for. Accept it online with an e-signature and you are on the schedule.
Scheduling Around Your Business Hours
Once you accept, you get email and text confirmation, then reminders as the date gets close with a window for our arrival. We set the work around your operating hours.
A Condition Check and Photos
On the day, we look over each awning's material and condition before any product goes on. We photograph what's there and log it to your file.
Pre-Rinse and Treatment
We pre-rinse the awning, then apply a treatment suited to its material across the organic growth, staining and droppings. This is a soft wash setup, not high pressure.
Rinsing, With Closer Work on Heavy Spots
We rinse the awning down with our pressure washing units. Where bird droppings or growth are heavy, we bring the wand in closer, pushing only as hard as the awning itself can take.
Before-and-After Photos and Your Invoice
We re-shoot the awning from the same points we used at the start and email the before-and-afters with your invoice on the day of service. If anything isn't right, we come back.
What Awning Cleaning Costs for Your Business
Awning cleaning is priced by the size of the awning, its material, how dirty it is, how we reach it, and how much is in scope. We set the exact number when we send your free written estimate.
| Pricing | Details |
|---|---|
| $450 minimum | $450 minimum. That is the floor for a service call, and most single storefront awnings come in right around it. Several awnings, or larger ones caked with growth and droppings, are priced up from there by size, material, condition and access. |
| Bundle & Save | Bundle and recurring savings. Combine awning cleaning with your storefront or other exterior work, or put it on a recurring schedule, and the savings get built into your quote. Ask when you get your estimate. |
Awning Cleaning Service Plans for Your Property
You don't have to think about your awnings between cleanings. We can set them on a regular cycle that fits how often your property needs it, anywhere from monthly to twice a year.
- Commercial recurring contract. We build a cleaning schedule around your property: monthly, quarterly, twice a year or whatever fits, with payment options to match your budget.

Awning Cleaning Reviews From Business Owners
Awning Cleaning Questions
Do you clean canopies as well as awnings?
Yes. We clean canopies right alongside awnings, including drive-thru canopy cleaning, where birds roost overhead and the buildup is heaviest. We repeat the treatment and washing on those spots as needed to get them as clean as the material allows.
