This beautiful Cedar Pergola/arbor is an example of a backyard structure you can have freestanding in your backyard or garden. Sometimes it's not a patio cover you want but a shaded architectural element in the garden.
A custom built patio cover creates a comfortable area to entertain friends, spend time with your family or just relax after a long day...in any weather. Adding a covered patio in your backyard is a great way to extend your outdoor living area while staying protected from the sun and rain. Let us design and build a custom wood or aluminum patio cover for your backyard. That's our motto, Creating Comfort for Outdoor Living...with Affordable Shade!

Today, almost any activity you enjoy inside your home you can bring to the outside. Depending on your budget, your outdoor room can be simple, with a stamped concrete patio, a grill and a table for dining, or more elaborate with a fully functional outdoor kitchen complete with concrete countertops for preparing and serving food, a sink and a refrigerator. You can take the concept even further by adding such amenities as a concrete pizza oven, a fireplace or fire-pit, a concrete bar-top for serving cocktails, an architectural concrete fountain, landscape lighting and concrete statuary.
