Custom Patio Covers & Pergolas for Pool Builders

May 15, 20254 min read

As a pool builder, your job doesn’t end when the water fills the shell. Today’s clients expect more than just a stunning pool—they want a fully designed outdoor living space that invites relaxation, entertainment, and connection. Patio covers and pergolas are the missing piece that transforms a backyard into a complete destination.

At Cedar Shade Co., we partner directly with pool professionals to integrate custom-built shade structures that match the quality and craftsmanship of your pool installations. These additions don’t just look good—they create added value, boost client satisfaction, and position you as a leader in luxury outdoor design.

Why Shade Structures Make Sense for Pool Builders

Homeowners want more than a pool—they’re looking for a space that works for all-day, all-season use. Shade structures like pergolas and patio covers expand a backyard’s potential, adding comfort and functionality to areas that might otherwise go unused during peak sun or weather conditions.

These additions help create distinct outdoor zones for lounging, dining, or gathering, all while enhancing the overall design of the space. For pool builders, offering integrated shade options is a smart way to increase value and meet the full scope of client expectations.

Streamlined Collaboration That Keeps Your Project Moving

We get it—pool builds are complex. Deadlines, inspections, material delays, client walkthroughs—it’s a lot. That’s why when you work with Cedar Shade Co., we simplify rather than complicate. Our process is designed to integrate seamlessly into your project timeline, not derail it.

From the first design consultation, we’re aligning with your vision and ensuring our carpentry complements your pool’s layout, flow, and aesthetic. We show up when we say we will, communicate clearly, and keep you looped in so you can stay focused on your core work. We’re not just another contractor—we’re a strategic partner that helps elevate your brand.

Design-Forward Solutions That Add Value

Custom shade structures are more than functional—they're architectural statements. We help pool builders offer tailored outdoor solutions that match each client’s unique vision. Whether your projects lean rustic, modern, or coastal chic, we can design a pergola or patio cover that enhances the surrounding environment and ties the whole outdoor space together.

Each build is handcrafted using premium materials like cedar and redwood for superior performance in Texas’s weather conditions. Our focus on detail, proportion, and symmetry ensures that the final product is as aesthetically impressive as it is durable.

Where Pergolas & Patio Covers Fit Into Pool Projects

Incorporating patio covers or pergolas directly into your pool designs signals to clients that you’re thinking beyond the basics. These features help define outdoor spaces and give homeowners a clearer vision of how their yard will function day to night. When a client sees a complete concept—shade structures included—it becomes easier for them to say yes to an upgraded package. It’s not just a design enhancement; it’s a strategic tool for increasing project scope and boosting your bottom line.

The Demand for Complete Outdoor Spaces Is Rising

Outdoor living spaces have evolved from simple add-ons to essential elements of modern backyard design. Features like patio covers and pergolas are now seen as standard in high-end pool projects, providing both form and function. Their inclusion helps define the overall layout, extends the usability of the space, and elevates the project’s perceived value. Offering these structures as part of your build positions your work as comprehensive and design-forward.

Why Builders Choose Cedar Shade Co.

When choosing a shade structure partner, quality, timing, and reliability matter. Our team understands the builder mindset—we work quickly, communicate clearly, and take pride in every cut, joint, and finish. Here’s what sets us apart:

  • We align with your build schedule to avoid delays or overlap.

Once you see what our team can do, you’ll never want to go back to a plain deck or barren patio again.

Stand Out, Sell More, and Satisfy Clients
