"The cover looks great, nice material, alumawood is very nice and sturdy and no painting to do forever vs a wood patio that you have to maintain constantly, this was the third one I had this company build for me on my new home. Sharon and Valerie were great to work with, very pleasant and kept me in the loop as to day of installation. Highly recommend this company if you are looking for a solid patio cover that you don't have to paint ever and will with stand over 100 mph winds. The price was very reasonable and it included the concrete stump and installation of the concrete slab.."
"I love my new blinds! I wanted an inexpensive option to cover my windows and Peter came to my door to give me an estimate at the right time. The installation of (6) windows and (1) patio door didn't take long at all. The job was completed in a timely manner and professionally. I would definitely hire this company again!"
"There was a personnel issue early on, which I know can happen to any company. That was handled quickly, once that was addressed, everything was handled professionally and punctually. Pricing is at the higher end of what we found, but since we had good reviews from several neighbors and friends who had used the company for similar projects, we went with Sun Shield. Build quality is good; the patio covers will make our home more comfortable. The overall ratings I gave reflect the issues with the first team that came out. As I said earlier, once the problem person was removed from the project, all went well and I would have no problem hiring the company again."
"Princess Patios delivered beyond our expectations from start to finish. Very fast, friendly and professional. Once all the details were ironed out, Victor and Ulysses came out and did a fantastic job. To say that we're happy with the results would probably be an understatement."
"He replaced the hinges, drilled new holes in the ground so that the metal rods could stabilized the gate allowing me to lock it. He did a wonderful job, I'm really pleased. In addition, he has a pleasant personality and knows his stuff. I recommend him highly."
"called for free quote . came out two days later quoted best price . liked that they used elite wood which is similar to aluma wood but is locally made . they came out two days later and poured concrete . the following week they put up the patio cover it took about a day. they were neat timely and did a good job , I couldn't be happier.

"Jung has worked for me in Summerlin for 6 years! His skill and expertise are unmatched. Over the years he has repaired or updated most everything in my home: electrical outlets, ceiling fans, light fixtures, bathroom faucets, shower doors, kitchen sink installation, patio doors, indoor & outdoor furniture assembly, privacy lattice installation, retractable sun screen. He was even able to run water from outside so I could have a hose in my garage! Jung is honest and dependable...and always "figures out the best way to do it." I am grateful I found him."
It’s best to keep your awning retracted if winds are 25 miles per hour or more to make sure your awning doesn’t sustain irreparable damage due to wind. Some awnings can take winds up to 30 miles per hour without any damage, but it’s best to consult the manufacturer’s guidance. A good rule of thumb is if it’s too windy for you to comfortably stand outside, it’s time to bring the awning in.
Hurricane fabric is a temporary form of hurricane protection that offers an alternative to boarding up windows or installing traditional storm panels. It is installed over windows, doors, and other openings before a storm. When installed properly, hurricane fabric is tested and proven to protect homes from Category 5 hurricanes, which can have winds over 157 miles per hour. It is intended to block the majority of wind and rain and protect against water, debris, and projectile damage. While the fabric is exceptionally durable, windows can still break if hit directly by high-velocity debris. Compared to other options, hurricane fabric is more protective than hurricane window film. Boarding up windows is more labor-intensive and requires storing heavy plywood, while hurricane screens are permanently attached to your home. To further increase protection, you can take additional steps like securing outdoor items and fortifying your home's foundation.
It’s best to opt for a lightweight roof, as a heavy roof adds a lot of weight and pressure to the support posts and hardware and destabilizes the structure. Vinyl is a good, lightweight option, as is a nice open trellis, louvered aluminum or vinyl slats, or fabric panels. Clear polycarbonate is another great option that offers seamless shelter and additional UV protection without completely obscuring the sunshine. You can also choose retractable coverings or an awning that you only use in wet weather or when you need additional shade.
A covered deck can be a good investment that increases your home value—especially if you live in a hot region with a lot of sun. A covering over the deck means you can get more use out of it, even on the hottest summer days. With a permanent deck covering, you can even add ceiling fans to help cool down your deck for added comfort.
If you're handy, it might be worth trying to install retractable awnings yourself. Just keep in mind that motorized retractable awnings require much more know-how, and the risk of something costly going wrong (such as damaging your new awnings) is higher.
Mechanical awnings should be easy to install for the average person with some handyman skills.
