Hi we are seasonal so have had someone put a floor in awning for us.Our last pitch had a floor and was ok but we moved pitch as our other was too exposed to the wind .To cut long story short he put floor in but pitch is sloping so there is about 9 ins difference at front as he had to put it on blocks so it would be level .Problem we now have is awning is lower at front door and we have to duck to get out the door We raised jockey and legs on a breeze block but still have the problem.Has anyone come across this problem .Would appreciate anyone's advice on this .x

Did you also raise your caravan under the wheels?
I would be worried if you didn't.

As for the awning could you not have a frame made around the edge of the flooring to fix the awning on so as to bring it up to level.

ok so you have levelled up the caravan then? but this wont make any difference to the awning at all where your door is will still slope, the only thing that would improve that would be to dig out the pitch so its level, and i cant see the owner of the site allowing you to do that!
