The Way We Work
Let’s Build Something Together
Our best trade relationships start before the plans are final. If you’re an architect or landscape architect specifying shade structures, we’re here to be your go-to resource — product information, technical specs, and design support at every stage of the project.
If you’re a contractor or builder bidding a job with shade structures on the plans, we make the quoting process straightforward. Send us the plans and we’ll get back to you quickly with what you need.
We know timelines matter. Whether you’re in pre-construction or racing to close out a job, we work around your schedule — not ours. Fast turnaround on quotes, responsive communication, and a team that understands what it means to be part of a larger project.
The trade partners we work with best are the ones we hear from again. Repeat business is how we know we got it right — and building those long-term relationships is exactly what we’re here for.

Common Questions from Trade Partners
Can you quote directly from architectural or construction plans?
Yes — send us your plans and we’ll provide a detailed quote. We work from architectural drawings, CAD files, PDFs, or even hand sketches. We’ll flag any questions or spec alternatives before finalizing.
Do you provide shop drawings and engineering?
Yes. Shop drawings, renderings, and engineering documentation are available as needed — whether you’re in the bidding stage or have a confirmed job. We can provide what your project requires.
Do you work nationwide or only in Texas?
We work nationwide. While our primary market is DFW and Austin, we design and install across the United States for the right projects. Contact us to discuss your location.
Who handles permitting?
In most trade and commercial projects, permitting is handled by the GC or the property owner’s team as part of the broader project. We provide the documentation, engineering, and support you need — and can assist with permitting if required.
What products do you install?
The same range we offer residential clients — motorized louvered pergolas, patio covers, custom cabanas, sail shade systems, pool covers and enclosures, carports, fixed slat pergolas, cantilevered shade systems, and motorized privacy screens. See our full product range for details.
