Shade Maintenance & Repair in Cape Coral, FL
Outdoor shade systems in Cape Coral work hard. The salt air, UV intensity, afternoon storms, and humidity all take a toll on motors, fabrics, and hardware. Regular maintenance keeps your system running reliably. And when something breaks, you need it fixed fast — especially before storm season.
We service all major shade brands including Somfy, Lutron, Phantom, Fenetex, and MagnaTrack. Whether we installed your system or someone else did, we can maintain and repair it.
Motor Service
Motors are the most common repair item on motorized shade systems. Issues include complete motor failure, limit switch problems where the shade doesn't stop at the right position, and power supply faults.
We stock common motor replacements and can usually complete a motor swap in a single service visit. For older systems, we can upgrade your motor to a newer model with app and voice control capability.
Battery-powered and solar-powered motors need periodic battery replacement or charge verification. Our maintenance plans include this check.
Fabric Service
Fabric repairs include tear patching, panel replacement, tension adjustment, and deep cleaning. Florida's UV degrades all fabrics over time, but quality materials last 7 to 12 years before replacement is needed.
When fabric needs replacement, we can swap just the fabric without replacing the track system or housing. This saves significant cost compared to a full system replacement.
Track and Hardware
Tracks need periodic lubrication and realignment. Zip-track systems need zipper maintenance to stay smooth. Cable-guided systems need cable retensioning. Side-channel tracks need cleaning to prevent buildup that causes binding.
Salt air corrosion is the biggest hardware threat in Cape Coral. We inspect all fasteners, brackets, and mechanical components during every maintenance visit. Catching corrosion early prevents expensive failures.
Annual Maintenance Plans
We offer annual maintenance programs that include a scheduled pre-season inspection, deployment test of all shades, hardware lubrication, track cleaning, sensor calibration, and a written condition report.
Most homeowners schedule their annual visit in May or June — before hurricane season and before peak summer use. This ensures everything works when you need it most.
Emergency Service
Stuck shades, motor failures, and storm damage don't wait for a scheduled appointment. We offer emergency service for Cape Coral and Lee County customers who need immediate help.
What It Costs
Service calls run $150 to $500 depending on the issue. Annual maintenance plans run $300 to $800 per year depending on how many systems you have. Major repairs like motor replacement typically cost $500 to $2,500.
