Pergolas, Patio Covers & Outdoor Structures

Create Comfortable Outdoor Living Spaces

Our desert sun is beautiful but intense. A pergola or patio cover makes your outdoor space comfortable during the hottest parts of the day. These structures add architectural interest to your yard while providing shade and defining your outdoor living areas. You can enjoy your backyard more months of the year with proper shade structures.

We design and build custom outdoor structures throughout Victorville that complement your home and meet your needs. Whether you want a classic wood pergola, a solid patio cover, or a modern aluminum structure, we create outdoor spaces you love. Our professional pergola installation services combine quality craftsmanship with smart design that works in our climate.

Outdoor Structure Options

Different structures serve different purposes. We help you choose the right option for your space and how you want to use it:

• Open Pergolas: Classic slatted roof that provides partial shade and supports climbing plants
• Louvered Pergolas: Adjustable slats let you control shade throughout the day
• Solid Patio Covers: Complete overhead protection from sun and light rain
• Lattice Structures: Decorative overhead coverage that filters light beautifully
• Attached vs Freestanding: Connect to your house or create a standalone focal point
• Gazebos: Fully enclosed structures with railings perfect for dining or relaxation
• Arbors and Trellises: Smaller structures for entryways and garden accents

Choosing Your Materials

Wood Structures

Wood pergolas and covers offer timeless beauty and warmth. Cedar and redwood resist rot naturally and age to an attractive gray patina, or you can maintain the original color with our staining and sealing services. Pressure-treated lumber provides good durability at a lower cost. Wood structures blend naturally with landscaping and support vines and climbing plants.

Aluminum and Vinyl

Low-maintenance aluminum and vinyl structures never need painting or staining. These materials resist rust, rot, and insects while standing up to our intense sun and temperature extremes. Modern designs look great and come in various colors and styles. Aluminum can support solid roofing panels for complete shade.

Combination Structures

Many homeowners love mixing materials for the best of both worlds. Wood posts with aluminum beams, or vinyl frames with wood-look finishes create interesting visual designs. We help you balance aesthetics, maintenance requirements, and budget to create the perfect outdoor structure.

Planning Your Outdoor Structure

Location matters significantly for shade structures. We analyze sun angles throughout the day and different seasons to position your pergola or cover where it provides maximum benefit. Attaching to your house often makes sense for patio covers, extending your living space naturally. Freestanding structures work great over decks or in garden areas.

Size and proportion are important too. Your structure should fit the space without overwhelming it or looking too small. Standard post spacing and beam sizes provide good proportions, but we can customize everything to match your needs. Consider how you plan to use the space when determining size and features. If you want to combine your shade structure with a new deck, we design and build everything together for perfect integration. Adding features like lighting, fans, or built-in seating makes your outdoor space even more functional.
