Make Your Sun-Baked Patio or Balcony Your Favorite Room
In Inner West Houston, the patio, balcony, and rooftop deck are prime living space — but the intense Gulf sun, glare, and mosquitoes can drive you inside for the best hours of the day, fade your outdoor furniture, and heat the adjacent rooms. Your favorite space goes unused when you most want to enjoy it.
Exterior solar screens fix it. They block UV and radiant heat before it reaches you, drop the ambient temperature, cut glare, and add privacy, all while preserving your view — and they help keep out bugs and mosquitoes. That turns a sun-baked patio, balcony, or deck into a comfortable outdoor room you can use year-round. Our premium exterior systems are engineered for Gulf Coast UV and humidity, in a range of openness factors and manual or motorized operation. (Note: these provide sun, heat, glare, privacy, and bug control — they are not code-rated hurricane shutters.)

Frequently Asked Questions About Exterior & Patio Shades in Inner West Houston
How much cooler do exterior patio shades make an outdoor space?
Exterior solar screens can drop your patio or balcony’s ambient temperature significantly by blocking UV and radiant heat before it reaches you. In Houston’s intense sun, that’s often the difference between an outdoor space you avoid midday and one you use year-round.
They also cut glare, add privacy, and help keep bugs and mosquitoes out.
Will exterior shades block my view?
No — solar-screen fabrics preserve your outward view during the day while blocking heat, UV, and glare. The openness factor sets the balance: tighter weaves give more blockage and privacy, more open weaves keep a clearer view.
