Considering adding a louvered pergola to your patio or deck? These stylish shaded structures offer more benefits than just good looks - they can also save you money in some unexpected ways. According to Statista, in 2021, patios and porches were the most popular outdoor features added to new single-family homes in the United States. Here are a few of the key ways our clients have saved money after installing one of our louvered pergolas.

Lower Energy Bills

How can an outdoor structure reduce your energy costs? By shading your home’s windows and walls from intense sunlight. The adjustable louvers allow you to control just how much shade your pergola provides at any given time. This can significantly cut your cooling costs in warm weather by blocking heat gain indoors. Our louvered pergolas have helped many clients reduce their electricity bills.

Added Resale Value

Outdoor living spaces continue to be highly desired home features. The addition of a louvered pergola shows potential buyers you've enhanced your exterior space for entertaining and relaxation. This can boost your home’s resale value above nearby comparable properties without pergolas. Our clients who have sold their homes after a pergola installation have seen this benefit first-hand.

Fewer Patio Furniture Replacements

The shelter our louvered pergolas provide means your patio seating and tables are protected from sun damage and wear from the elements. Rather than having to replace faded, cracked outdoor furniture every couple of seasons, our clients find that their sets stay like new for years thanks to pergola coverage. That's savings you didn't expect.

Lower Maintenance Landscaping

Harsh sunlight and weather exposure take a toll on gardens and lawns too. Our louvered pergolas allow you to control sunlight reaching plants and grass underneath. Filtered light encourages growth while protection from the elements reduces watering needs. Clients find their landscaping costs drop thanks to a thriving garden and greener lawn.

Installing a louvered pergola not only elevates your exterior living space, but can also save you money through lower bills, reduced replacements, and easier lawn care. Consider a pergola an investment that provides beauty and relaxation while also boosting savings. Our clients have discovered firsthand the many economic perks that come with a louvered pergola addition.
