Steve’s old wooden pergola was ineffective: no rain protection soaked his outdoor furniture, while poor shade and airflow made summers unbearable, leaving the space unusable in bad weather.
We installed a 10×28 modern aluminum weatherproof backyard pergola with motorized louvers, integrated lights and fans. Now he can adjust louvers for rain shelter or cool breezes, creating a low-maintenance, year-round functional outdoor space.
Steve’s old wooden pergola left his backyard patio exposed—rain soaked furniture, storms turned the space into a no - go zone. What should be a “chill reading nook” became unusable for half the year.
With no airflow or shade, Steve’s backyard turned into a heat trap. Even casual afternoons felt stifling—no way to relax with a book or host friends without sweating through the experience.
The rotting wooden pergola needed nonstop repairs—staining, sealing, patching. Instead of enjoying his outdoor space, Steve spent weekends playing “handyman” just to keep it standing.
We swapped Steve’s rotten wood for a 10x28 aluminum pergola. Now his patio stays dry in rain, protected in storms—turning it into a “year - round lounge” where furniture stays safe, just like this client’s cozy setup.
The aluminum frame needs no staining/sealing. Steve’s backyard now works like this “set it and forget it” patio—he spends time reading, hosting, or chilling, not fixing broken pergola parts.
