Pergolas and Shade Structures in Virginia and Maryland
Virginia and Maryland’s climate brings intense summer heat, chilly winters, and frequent rain during spring and fall. For these reasons, your pergola or shade structure must be built to endure year-round weather while providing a comfortable, shaded retreat for gatherings, outdoor meals, or quiet relaxation. Our PWHI team designs and installs pergolas and shade structures using high-quality materials that maintain their beauty and functionality over time.
Our experienced professionals skillfully craft structures tailored to your outdoor space, ensuring they enhance both style and comfort. We offer a wide selection of durable, low-maintenance options, from sleek aluminum pergolas to classic wood designs. Whether you’re looking for a modern, adjustable louvered roof or a traditional slatted pergola, our experts guide you in selecting the ideal style that complements your home and fits your lifestyle.
The PWHI Process for Pergolas and Shade Structures
We take pride in crafting custom pergolas and shade structures that homeowners will enjoy for years. From start to finish, we ensure your vision is brought to life with a seamless process. Our service includes talking with your local building inspector, while our advanced design software gives you a 3D model preview of how your pergola or shade structure will look with your new custom deck or patio (as in the image above). This interactive design process allows you to share feedback with your deck and pergola builder, make adjustments, and feel confident that the final result matches your expectations.
Our skilled designer and contractor team focuses on creating a structure that enhances your home’s aesthetic and provides lasting quality. We build to ensure your pergola or shade structure remains beautiful. When you choose a metal or aluminum pergola, you’ll enjoy a low-maintenance outdoor retreat designed to withstand time and weather with options that blend durability and style.
