Switzerland is a historic community along the St. Johns River in northern St. Johns County. Older established homes, larger lots, and mature landscaping define the area — all of which benefit from thoughtful awning design that complements existing architecture.
Homes along the St. Johns River need coastal-grade hardware even though they're inland. River humidity and occasional storm weather require stainless or marine-grade fasteners and UV-rated fabric. We spec this standard on every Switzerland install.
Several Switzerland homes are on the historic registry or have architectural elements worth preserving. Custom awnings matched to original style — or built from scratch to match period hardware — are our specialty.
Switzerland projects run 5 to 8 weeks for standard work. Custom and historic projects run 10 to 14 weeks.
