Houston, TX
Gray frame/ White louvers, 13ft ×10ft Solar-Powered Pergola
Facade Roller Shade
Santos’ backyard was a “potential-rich but underused space.” Extreme sun made midday hangs unbearable, rain turned the area into a “muddy mess” for days, and the lack of a private, cozy zone meant no real “resort - like escape” at home.
We installed a 13ft×10ft solar-powered aluminum pergola with a gray frame and white louvers. Equipped with motorized adjustable louvers, built-in ceiling fans, LED lights, and a facade roller shade, this backyard pergola transformed the backyard into an all-weather, private paradise.
Santos’ backyard was a “midday furnace”—scorching sun made lunchtime relaxation impossible, and even reading a book outside felt like “baking in an oven.”
Rain turned the backyard into a “soggy nightmare”—cushions got soaked, the patio stayed muddy for days, and any plan for an afternoon lounge was “washed away.”
Without privacy features, Santos’ backyard felt “too open”—neighbors’ noises and prying eyes made it hard to relax.
Sola’s 13ftx10ft pergola acts as a “sun - smart shield.” Motorized louvers adjust with a remote—open for gentle morning light, close tight to block harsh midday sun. Now, Santos has a shaded spot for lunch, a breezy area for afternoon naps, turning the backyard into a daily “resort - style” retreat.
With the facade roller shade and adjustable louvers, the pergola becomes a “private escape.” Close the shade for intimate dinners or solo reading, blocking neighbors’ views and noises. Open it up for larger gatherings.
"MY BACKYARD WAS A DUD—TOO HOT, RAIN-DAMAGED, AND NO PRIVACY. THEN SOLA’S BACKYARD PERGOLA CHANGED IT ALL! REMOTE LOUVERS LET ME RELAX RAIN OR SHINE, SOLAR FANS KEEP IT COOL, AND LIGHTS MAKE NIGHTS COZY. IT’S MY BACKYARD RESORT NOW—I GRILL, CHILL, AND USE THE SPACE DAILY."
