How long does it take to install sunshades?
The average installation time for sunshades ranges between 1.5 and 3 hours. Smaller indoor sunshades, such as roller blinds or venetian blinds, are usually installed within 1.5 hours. For outdoor sunshades like retractable awnings or roller shutters, expect it to take 2 to 3 hours, depending on accessibility and mounting requirements. If multiple sunshades are being installed or electric control is involved, the job may take longer.
Zoofy professionals work efficiently and ensure the job is completed within the agreed time. They have experience with a wide range of brands and systems, so you can quickly enjoy optimal sun protection.
