Pergolas and Outdoor Living
If you can dream it, we can build it.
Outdoor living that holds up in Upstate weather and reads as a real room — not a tacked-on patio. Commercial side: restaurant patio expansions, hotel pool decks, rooftop bars, and courtyard hospitality structures (we already delivered Inman Restaurant's 750 SF aluminum pergola). High-end residential side: pool-surround decks, outdoor kitchens, attached and freestanding pergolas, and screened structures for the way you actually entertain. Pricing runs $165–$250 / SF installed, selection-driven against pergola material (aluminum vs. composite vs. cedar), span and column engineering, integrated lighting and motorized louvers, and the surface or substructure underneath.

Why pergolas and outdoor living works the way it does in Tyler
About Tyler, TX. Tyler is the commercial and medical hub of East Texas — the "Rose Capital of America" — anchored by two major hospital systems and the genteel, brick-street Azalea District. It draws patients, professionals, and retirees from across the region and is the natural metro for the Piney Woods.
What it means for pergolas and outdoor living. Tyler sits in the Piney Woods, where sandy loam over clay produces different foundation conditions than DFW — conventional slabs and pier-and-beam are both common, and tree-heavy lots shape siting. The medical corridor around UT Health and Christus Trinity Mother Frances drives steady healthcare and office build-out, while the historic Azalea and Brick Streets districts support high-end renovation. Common work is custom homes in the affluent south and Old Bullard corridor, additions and historic renovation in the Azalea District, medical and office tenant improvements, and restaurant and multifamily projects.

Transparent Pricing
What Affects the Price
Every job is different. Here's what we look at when we put together your estimate — so there are no surprises on job day.
Structure material — aluminum, composite, cedar, or hybrid
Span, column engineering, and wind/load zone
Roof system — fixed cover, motorized louvers, lattice, or screened
Integrated electrical — lighting, fans, heaters, audio, motor controls
Pool deck or patio surface underneath — composite decking, pavers, stamped concrete, or stone
Commercial vs. residential code path — restaurant patio capacity, ADA, egress
We don't quote over the phone. Every estimate is done on-site because that's the only way to give you a number you can count on. No ballparks, no surprises.
Our Process
How We Approach
Pergolas and Outdoor Living
Use Case, Span & Selections
How you'll actually use the structure drives the design — dining capacity for a restaurant patio, pool-deck slip resistance and code clearance for a high-end residential build, motorized louvers vs. fixed cover, integrated lighting and ceiling fans. Span and column placement engineered to your loads, wind zone, and the view you don't want a post in the middle of.
Manufacturer Procurement
Direct dealer relationships with Outdoor Elements USA for aluminum pergola systems, plus Timbertech and Trex for composite deck surfaces underneath. Selections pre-ordered against manufacturer lead times so on-trend colors and finishes aren't out of stock when your investor or grand-opening date comes due.
Install, Inspect, Hand Over Clean
Footings poured to frost depth, columns plumb, beams set true. Electrical for fans, heaters, motorized louvers, and lighting roughed and trimmed properly. Final walkthrough hits the punch list to zero — and the warranty paperwork lives in the close-out package, not in someone's email.
Common Questions
Pergolas and Outdoor Living FAQ
Answer
Installed pricing runs $165–$250 per square foot, selection-driven. The biggest variables are pergola material (aluminum vs. composite vs. cedar), roof system (fixed, motorized louvers, screened), integrated electrical, and the surface underneath. Restaurants and hospitality structures land toward the upper end because of capacity, ADA, and commercial-code requirements.
