Your Worries Take a Seat in The Shade

December 17, 2015 Patio Design

Every Texas Custom Patios project is custom-designed and built to enhance your home and complement your personality.  While we are great at perfecting your dream patio, we know you as homeowners have many questions.  Will you take care of the HOA?  Why is budget important? And the most popular question under the sun … By adding a patio cover, will I lose all my natural light inside my home?

There are so many answers to ease the worry over the loss of natural light.  The short answer is, no you will not lose your natural light.  Your lighting varies based on many factors, not just by the sole fact of adding or extending the amount of covered area you have on the exterior of your home.

Here are some things that should be considered …

Good daylighting is the interaction between lots of factors, including:

  • Orientation of your home (windows facing north, south, etc …)
  • Proper window design
  • Light control (blinds, shades, etc.)
  • Existing overhead lighting

It can even come down to things you may never have thought of:

  • Interior design, such as the arrangement of furniture and paint colors
  • Reflective surfaces, both inside and outside your house
  • Supplemental (artificial) lighting

We as design experts can take your vision and reflect upon it to build the most perfect outdoor area that is custom perfection for YOUR home!

Our Customers Love Us

I totally love our transformed backyard, which faces west and is consequently quite hot in the summer; the table umbrella just didn’t do much. Now we have a better patio, much more sophisticated looking and professionally done to match the existing house so it looks like it was always there. Great job!
