The Person Behind Cambridge Awnings.

Backed by over 30 years of experience through Cambridge Blinds, Cambridge Awnings has helped homeowners, businesses and self-build clients find the right shading solution for their property.

Who Are You Trusting To Advise You?

At Cambridge Awnings, that responsibility sits with Cameron Brookes.

  • The person who carries out the surveys.
  • Provides the recommendations.
  • Answers the questions.
  • And helps homeowners transform the way they use their outdoor spaces.

A Different Approach To Outdoor Living

The conversation feels different.

There is no hard sell.

  • No pressure.
  • No artificial urgency.
  • No attempt to push customers towards the most expensive option.

Instead, the focus is on understanding:

  • The Property
  • The Challenges
  • The Lifestyle The Customer Wants To Create
  • The Space
  • The Objectives

Because before any meaningful recommendation can be made, those things need to be understood first.

Recommend, Don't Sell

This simple philosophy sits at the heart of Cambridge Awnings.

Most customers don't wake up wanting an awning. They wake up wanting:

  • More Shade
  • Better Outdoor Dining
  • Somewhere To Entertain Friends
  • A Cooler Kitchen
  • A More Comfortable Patio
  • A Better Connection Between Home And Garden

The awning, pergola or outdoor living system is simply the tool that helps achieve that outcome.

That's why the focus is always on recommendations rather than sales.

Why Cambridge Awnings Was Created

Customers deserve better advice.

Cameron believes the process should begin somewhere else.

It should begin with understanding how the customer wants to use the space.

Only then can the right solution be recommended.

Every Property Is Different

Outdoor living solutions aren't just products attached to buildings.

This is why surveys play such an important role in the Cambridge Awnings process. The objective is never to force a product onto a property — it’s to understand the property and recommend what genuinely fits.

The Survey Is The Most Important Part

Often the most valuable part of the entire process.

Many homeowners assume the survey exists to generate a quotation. It’s actually an opportunity to discuss:

  • Reliability
  • Share Experience
  • Explain Options
  • Answer Questions
  • Make Recommendations

The decision itself always belongs to the customer.

Outdoor Living Is About People

Whilst products are important, outdoor living is ultimately about people.

It's about:

  • Family Meals
  • Summer Evenings
  • Relaxing Outdoors
  • Entertaining Friends
  • Creating Memories
  • Enjoying The Home More Fully

The products simply help create the environment where those moments can happen.

Why We Choose Weinor

Recommendations built on trust, not marketing.

Customers occasionally ask why Cambridge Awnings recommends Weinor. The answer is straightforward — recommendations should be based on:

  • Reliability
  • Quality
  • Customer Experience
  • Engineering
  • Long-Term Performance
  • Confidence

Encouraging Customers To Shop Around

Informed customers make better decisions.

This surprises some people. But Cameron is often happy to encourage customers to explore alternatives and compare options.

A customer who understands the available options is far more likely to choose the solution that’s genuinely right for them.

That benefits everyone.

No Pressure, No Obligation

Customers should never feel pressured.

The role of Cambridge Awnings is to provide expert advice, explain the available options, and help customers make an informed decision. The final decision always belongs to the customer.

Building Long-Term Relationships

The most rewarding part of the business isn't the installation. It's hearing from customers years later who are still enjoying the spaces that were created.

Many projects begin with a single enquiry and lead to long-term relationships, repeat business and recommendations to family and friends. That trust is never taken for granted.
