Keith's Poolside Shade

Project Overview

Project Name

Poolside Shade

Location

Kingwood, TX

Project Type

Residential

Keith had recently moved into his new home in Kingwood and quickly realized his backyard lacked any kind of shade. He was looking for a sleek, functional solution that would let him relax and host guests comfortably by the pool. Most of the pergolas he found online were too small, didn’t include a fan, and would require him to install it himself — something he wasn’t excited about tackling.

We delivered and installed a 13x12 aluminum pergola with a gray frame and white louvers, complete with a built-in fan, in just one day. The finished result gave Keith a durable, modern space to enjoy beside the pool without the hassle of a DIY project.

Client Pain Point

Top view of Keith's Poolside Shade

⚠️Lack of Functional Shade

No patio cover left the backyard fully exposed. Daytime poolside relaxation was uncomfortable (heat, glare), and hosting guests suffered—no escape from direct sun limited backyard use for leisure/entertaining.

⚠️Mismatched Prefab Pergola Pitfalls

Keith found prefabricated pergolas were undersized (poor poolside coverage), lacked built - in fans (no airflow), and required risky, time - consuming DIY—bad fits for his needs.

⚠️Aesthetic Clash & Durability Doubts

Most prefabricated pergolas on the market have a simple, unattractive design that is out of place in a modern home. The thin structure risks rapid wear and tear, poor long-term investment and hidden replacement costs.

Details to Impress Client

✅Precision in Custom Sizing

We measured Keith’s poolside area down to the inch to craft a 13x12 aluminum pergola—no wasted space, no gaps. Unlike one-size-fits-all prefab options, it fits the exact layout, ensuring full shade coverage where he needs it most.

✅Thoughtful Feature Integration

Beyond basic shading, we added a built-in fan to combat humidity by the pool and integrated soft ambient lighting—perfect for evening lounging after sunset. These touches address Keith’s needs for daytime comfort and nighttime usability, turning a “shady spot” into a versatile, all-hours outdoor retreat.

✅Effortless Turnaround & Installation

From design approval to completion in just one day, we handled every step—no DIY stress for Keith. He came home to a fully installed pergola, ready to use that evening, proving our commitment to convenience.

✅Aesthetic Harmony with Home Design

The gray frame and white louvers weren’t random: we matched them to his new home’s exterior palette, ensuring the pergola feels like a natural extension of his property, not an afterthought.
