The average rating is 4.5, so you have decent options. I have had a torn awning fixed here, and the trick is calling ahead to see if the replacement fabric is in stock.

Awning problems usually come down to fabric tears, bent arms, or a stuck roller tube. In Evanston, the three shops that handle awnings also work on fridges, which tells you they are general RV repair shops, not awning specialists. That is fine for most jobs. A simple fabric replacement might be same-day if the material is on the shelf. Arm or roller repairs can take longer if parts need ordering. Ask upfront if the shop keeps common awning parts in stock, and get a written estimate before they start. One of the three shops, WELLING AUTO DEPOT POWERSPORTS & RV, does warranty work, so check there first if your awning is covered.
No mobile RV techs are listed in Evanston, so plan on bringing your rig to a shop. That means either driving it in or pulling the awning off yourself if it is removable. For big Class A awnings, driving is usually easier. If your awning is stuck out and you cannot retract it, call ahead and ask if they can fit you in quickly. Stones RV and Trailer Repair is open weekends, which helps if you are passing through on a Sunday. Backcountry Collision Repair handles insurance and body work, useful if the awning damage came from a collision or storm.
Stones RV and Trailer Repair has the most reviews and a 4.8 rating, so it is a solid first call. Backcountry Collision Repair has a perfect 5.0 from a handful of reviews and may be better for insurance claims. WELLING AUTO DEPOT POWERSPORTS & RV has a 3.8 average but does warranty work, which can save you money if your awning is covered. Spring and early summer are busy, so book a week or two ahead. Ask if the shop can check your roof sealant while the awning is off. One shop here also does roof repair, so it is worth combining the jobs.
