I don't know too much about awnings. They are probably just screwed into the framing behind the MH skin. If the screw holes are ripped open you might still be able to use them either by attaching at a different spot or using a large washer to close the opening.

A local handy man would probably be the cheapest help to hire.

be sure to use a sealant to prevent water infiltration behind the MH siding from the screw holes
