Gabriel and the team at Dream Awnings are fantastic! I called around getting quotes from awning and sign makers for 3 days -- it was hard to get anyone to even give me the time of day for a small job -- then I found Gabriel. He is considerate, takes his time, and makes sure to do a 10/10 job on whatever he works on. I got a great feeling from him right away, and the results double down on that feeling.
The price was the best value for sign + awning I could find anywhere and the result is more than I could have hoped for. Gabriel worked with me to examine multiple lines of sight to the sign to make sure the lettering was clearly visible from the corners near my shop and matched my brand colors very well. The install was painless and quick. I can't say enough good things about Dream Awnings. We open tomorrow 9/17 at 117 Meserole Avenue if you would like to come see his work for yourself!

We contacted Gabriel to install a custom vestibule for our tiny restaurant and every interaction has been pleasant and professional. As it has settled we had a problem with the door sticking. We reached out and he sent two professional smiling technicians to give us a little adjustment. As folk who customer service we appreciate those who exemplify it. Bravo! Highly recommend.
