Client wish list:
- We could use our pool more often if we had partial shade along the side of the house.
- We want the edge of our new patio cover to mimic the rounded edge of our pool.
- Please give us a cover we can install solar panels onto later, because that's something we want to do in the future.
Our vision:
- Classic white lattice for a crisp, clean look with just the right amount of shade.
- Custom engineering to give the cover a curvature to match the pool's edge.
- Place the columns right up against the lip of the pool to take maximum advantage of the space alongside the pool and allow shade to extend into the water.
Client wish list:
- We want a space in our backyard where we can set up a grill and have parties.
- The pineapple trees in our backyard are nice. Can you work around them?
Our vision:
- A customized that features blocking rather than a single slab (to eliminate the risk of cracking).
- Design around the pineapple trees to make each plant a visual point of interest.
- Engineer an imperceptible slant into the design to allow rain to run off into the grass rather than pooling on the slabs to create stains and slippage hazards.
Client wish list:
- We need to replace our patio cover, and we want the new one to last a lot longer.
- We like the look of a white cover with some detailing on the columns and rafters.
- We'd prefer a solid cover to keep the sun and rain off our patio and front door.
Our vision:
- Aluminum materials that will not require periodic sanding and painting.
- Mitered rafter tails and posts with detailing to add interest to the home's facade.
- The new cover will be wider then the old cover to increase protection of the front windows and doors, and add shade for increased energy efficiency during summer months.
