Common questions

Planning your project.

Every outdoor space is different. These answers can help you prepare for a free in-home consultation.

What is a cantilever shade structure?

A cantilever structure extends shade beyond its support posts, which can keep the covered area more open for furniture, paths, or poolside use.

Where are cantilever structures commonly used?

They are a flexible option for pools, patios, outdoor seating, and other open areas where traditional post placement may be less convenient.

Can you help choose the right placement?

Yes. We consider sightlines, furniture, circulation, and how the sun moves through your yard during the design process.
