Frequently asked questions about Patio Enclosures, Screens, and Covers


  • How effective are screen enclosures at keeping mosquitoes away during outdoor gatherings near Lewisville Lake?

    Screen enclosures offer excellent protection against mosquitoes, gnats, and midges, which are common along the lakeshore in The Colony. Our high-tensile, rust-resistant mesh creates a barrier that keeps insects out while allowing breezes in and preserving your view of the water. This means you can relax and entertain on your patio without constant interruptions from pests.

  • What difference do insulated patio covers make for comfort and energy efficiency in The Colony’s hot summers?

    Insulated patio covers significantly improve comfort by blocking direct sun and minimizing heat transfer. Their layered foam core system can lower patio temperatures by 10 to 15 degrees compared to uncovered areas. This makes your outdoor space far more comfortable during the summer and can even help reduce cooling demands for adjacent indoor areas.

  • Are louvered pergolas built to withstand The Colony’s high winds and unpredictable weather?

    Our louvered pergolas are engineered for North Texas weather and meet all local building codes. Made from durable aluminum, the adjustable louvers interlock to form a tight, water-resistant roof when closed, and an integrated gutter system channels rainwater away. This design protects your outdoor furniture and ensures reliable performance during storms or windy days.

  • Can retractable screens be added to existing patios or outdoor kitchens in The Colony’s newer neighborhoods?

    Yes. Motorized retractable screens can be custom-fitted to new or existing patios, porches, and outdoor kitchen spaces that are common in The Colony’s master-planned communities. These systems are tailored to your home’s style and color palette, making them a discreet and practical addition for flexible, year-round outdoor enjoyment.

  • What is the process for permitting and HOA approval for a patio enclosure project in The Colony?

    Projects involving enclosures or pergolas require approval from the City of The Colony to ensure code compliance. Many neighborhoods also have HOA requirements and architectural guidelines. Our team manages the entire permitting and approval process, including preparing engineering drawings, submitting documentation, and handling communication with both the city and your HOA so your project moves forward without delays.
