Fabric canopies that roll out when you want shade and tuck away when you do not, mounted to the house or on their own frame.
Sometimes you want shade, and sometimes you want sky. A retractable canopy or awning gives you both. Extended, it blocks the hot sun and cools the patio and the rooms behind it. Retracted, it disappears against the wall or the frame and lets in the light.
We install wall-mounted retractable awnings and freestanding or pergola-mounted canopies, in manual or motorized versions. We choose fabrics that resist fading and mildew, set the pitch so water runs off, anchor into framing and wire the motor and sensors. We explain wind limits and show you how to retract it before storms.
An awning mounts to the house and extends over the patio. It is slim when retracted and works well where a permanent roof is not wanted.
A canopy on tracks fits inside a pergola frame, giving you shade that moves. It pairs well with a timber or aluminum structure.
Solution-dyed acrylic and similar fabrics resist fading and mildew. Colors and stripes can match or contrast with your house.
Retractable fabric is not meant to stay out in strong wind or heavy rain. Wind sensors can retract it automatically, and we explain the limits clearly.

You tell us about the yard, the timeline and any concerns, and we set a time to visit that fits your day.
We walk the yard, study the sun and the house, take measurements and draw a plan with sizes and materials.
We write the scope, coordinate permits and HOA approvals, locate utilities and prepare the site.
Footings are poured, posts set plumb and beams and rafters go up in a planned order.
We stain or paint, add lights and features as planned and clean the site thoroughly.
We walk the finished pergola with you, share care tips and leave you to enjoy the shade.
Many extend eight to twelve feet or more depending on the model. We size it for your patio.
Light rain is fine for many models, but heavy rain and wind should be avoided. Follow the manual and consider a sensor.
Yes. Motors and remotes are common, and some connect to smart-home systems.
