Our Story

Dorchester Awning Company started as a family owned business in 1901 building Surrey tops for horse drawn buggies.  Over the decades the company expanded into Awnings, Tents and other Shade products.

Always a family owned business, in 2006 the company was acquired by Mark and Andrea Lampson. Dorchester Awning has grown and diversified beyond simple fabric products and now includes:

  • Canopies, Storefront Awnings, Large Venue Awnings
  • Retractable Awnings, Pergola Canopies and Shade Sails
  • Retractable Fabric Roof Systems
  • Metal Awnings
  • Nationwide and International Accounts
  • Winter Removal & Storage
  • Special and Custom Projects

Our Mission

Our company has a tradition of 100% customer satisfaction, service and quality that stretches back to 1901.
Our #1 goal is to delight our customers such that they consider us their ‘awning company’ for life.

Because the customer has a need, we have a job to do.

What People Say About Us

Courtney

I want you and Mark to know that the men who came out to do the work were wonderful. They got right to work and wanted to be sure everything was done the way I wanted it. They did a great job and I will recommend Dorchester Awning in the future.  The new awning makes a big difference. We really appreciate the additional effort you made on our behalf.

Krissy Bradley

I thought I'd share a pic of my Dad's new awning. He is thrilled and loves his new "room" on the deck. The crew who installed it was excellent. Thanks for the great customer service. I'm so happy we chose Dorchester Awning Company!

Wendy and Bill Messenger

Thank you all for following up with the corrections to the awning. We are very pleased with the end result.

Everyone we worked with was professional, friendly and responsive.

Lisa Latona

First of all - I LOVE family business...and I love you guys... you have been so awesome to work with... Thanks so much for everything... truly!

Richard & Ruth Griffin

We are very happy with the new “8700”! The remote control is a wonderful thing and we love the color and the shade it brings to our deck area. Bill, Trevor and Tyler did a great job - very friend, informative and professional. It’s great to do work with a well run, long established, family owned business so thanks, too, to Mark and Andrea. We appreciate their focus, hard work, business acumen and the relationship they have built with us (and their many customers, we’re sure).

Linda Pittella

My awning and I continue to weather the Summer and Pandemic in style at my seaside bungalow. My awning casts perfect shade and shadow allowing for comfort and cool breezes to enhance visitors (socially distanced of course). All who have enjoyed it's perfect shade on my sunny deck have experienced good health and peaceful enjoyment.The calm within the storm. Its shelter to enjoy the cool Summer breezes. Thank you for your expertise, friendship and outstanding product. Me and My Awning are One. I highly recommend you and your awnings to all who have stopped by. The only way to go in comfort, style and quality.

B. Binburg

A truly awesome experience.  From the first call to the on-site visit to the installation.  It was on of the best business experiences that I can remember.  The Lampson's are fantastic.

C. Raffoni

The Company is wonderful and the awning is great. My interior decorator recommended you. I have used you in the past and will use you again in the future. The material is great and it is nice to know that such a wonderful company is there to back us up. I will recommend you to all of my friends and family. Thank you for being so honest.

D. Patterson

Very happy with the professional service!  The installer arrived right on time, were cordial and informative on how the awning operated.  Also very impressed by the durability of our beautiful awning.  Highly recommend.

J. Shedlock

The service was like no other.  I have remodeled my parents home over the past six months.  Finding competent workers today is not easy.  The good ones stand out.  You folks were excellent to work with.  I was so surprised to see them up when I drove in one day.

A. Stucchi

Mark and Andrea – “Bunches of Thanks” Sometimes simple words say it best. Thank you from the bottom of my heart
