Tip
2 November 2026How long does awning cleaning take?

Professional cleaning of a retractable awning usually takes 45 minutes to 2 hours on site, fabric and frame included. The awning stays mounted: we work directly on the façade.
What changes the duration
- Fabric size: a 3 × 2.5 m terrace awning is much faster than a 6 m shop awning.
- Level of soiling: dust and pollen come off quickly; moss, mould and bird droppings from several seasons need pre-treatment.
- Access: ground floor is faster than an upper floor needing a mobile scaffold.
- Number of awnings: set-up is done once, so each extra awning takes less time.
Drying
The fabric air-dries in a few hours in dry weather. Keep it open until fully dry before retracting it.

Frequently asked questions
Does the awning need to be removed?
No. BoBache cleans the fabric and frame on site, with the awning mounted.
Can several awnings be cleaned on the same day?
Yes, and it costs less per awning since travel and set-up are counted once.
