Custom pergolas and shade structures that make your deck or patio usable and comfortable through the LA County sun.
Professional pergola construction across Los Angeles County
A pergola transforms a deck or patio into a true outdoor room. By adding overhead structure and shade, a pergola defines the space, cuts the harsh midday sun, and creates the perfect spot for dining or lounging. We build freestanding and attached pergolas in cedar, redwood, and low maintenance materials, sized and styled to match your home and deck.
Add adjustable louvers, shade cloth, string lights, climbing plants, or a full patio cover to get exactly the amount of shade and ambiance you want. Every pergola is engineered and anchored to stand up to wind and last for years.
