Affordable Shade Patio Covers

I had a very good experience working with Affordable Shade Patio Covers. Whether it was working with KC to complete the project or working with Michelle in the office to handle the administration side, it was a great experience. The project was complete on schedule and the quality of work was good. I was really satisfied with any and all contractors they used to do the work.

Luis had an amazing team. The work they did was spectacular! We love our new Covered Patio, so much room we host neighbors, our kids and our remaining family members as well. Thank you for a fast and amazing Patio you created for us!!!!!

Professional and quality work. Excellent people to work with as far as design and your needs. Would definitely recommend this company!!!

Affordable Shade did a great job on my patio cover.. It was completed a couple of months ago and so far no issues with water or anything. I appreciated the way the project moved along without me, having to do much checking to see when the various contractors were coming. The construction was completed up to code according to the way it was supposed to. Even the 3rd party inspectors commented on how everything looks the way it should. I did get other bids on this project, and they were the most competitive. I recommend them if you want your project completed correctly and in a timely manner..

The Affordable Shade company as a whole did a great job. They were quick to respond to our inquiry and were able to handle all the details from initial paperwork, interface with our HOA, arranging for Hurricane rating inspections and final City inspection. Just an excellent company that you can trust with your project.

Excellent work, professional staff who kept a very clean site during the process. Michael was great to work with and communicated well. Very pleased!

This company installed a cover patio in my backyard. When he finished the job I told him that the gutters were not installed properly. He said that he will send his gutter person and fix it but instead of doing what his CONTRACT says “installing gutters around the patio” he used part of my old gutters to half fix the problem. Then he took the rest of my gutters and said that he put them in the trash which they were not there. The problem become even worse because now that is rainy season the rain penetrates in the patio damaging the integrity of the patio, getting water inside the patio and collecting water inside the patio. This is ruining my furniture, rag and games, because they are getting wet. I asked the owner again to fix the issue. He acknowledged the problem but pretty much he said that that term of the contract was at his discretion and to hire a gutter person or contact his lawyer. He said he can recommend a gutter company to me and they can fix the problem for $300 more or less. I’m still paying for this cover patio and it cost me $16,000. I can’t afford a lawyer and is not fair to pay a gutter person because he didn’t do what he was supposed to do in the first place. I wouldn’t recommend this company. Once the got your money customer service is inexistente!

Affordable Shade Patio Covers constructed my 13' x 18' patio cover and it came out great, better that I expected. I obtain numerous quotes from builders and they had the best price and the best reviews. Their sales agent KC was very friendly, very nonweldable and answered all of my question as well as suggested some good ideas. Within days they had created the architectural drawings. He explained that they only use the best materials and they do not cut any corners. Up front he warn me that the City of Houston would take a long time with the permits, he was right. After the approval of the permits, Affordable Shade Patio Covers finished the job within days. I recommend Affordable Shade Patio Covers, they do it right, top quality materials and very experienced crews.

We worked with Affordable Shade (KC Dunham) to plan and design the right patio shade for our backyard. He was very courteous, thorough and responsible. We did not feel any pressure to select them or others we got quotes from. But Affordable Shade was the best overall value for us and so we went with them. We are glad we did - the patio shade materials are of high quality, and the design was well integrated into the house roofline and structure, forming clean lines that look original to the house. We now have a super-nice, shaded patio with can lights and a ceiling fan that allow us to entertain with friends and family!

Affordable Shade did a 5 star job on our new covered patio. Luis and his team patiently walked us through the whole project and was always available to answer questions.

Very pleased with our new patio cover! They took care of everything including permits, homeowners association approval and inspections. Would recommend!

Affordable Shade completed our patio cover addition on time and on budget. The contractor personnel were skilled and cleaned up the work area at the end of each day's construction activity. They were pleasant and provide me with solid answers to my questions during the construction process.

Kc and the team at Affordable Shade did an amazing job with our patio cover. The finished product was well worth the wait and I would use them again in the future.

The service was subpar the foreman on the job was not very good at communicating and never followed up with what he told you. The only time he would show up is for payment. The guys that did the work did a great job very pleased. I didn't think a 20 x 20 patio would take 8 months to complete . I understand getting drawings, permits and HOA approval takes a while but thought it was way too long.

We contracted for a 14' X 72' patio cover on March 8, 2021. Since we don't have a HOA, and we are in unincorporated Harris county, no permits are needed. The salesman told us we should be able to start in a few weeks. Much to our dismay, the salesman wasn't as truthful as he should have been and he was not very good at keeping us informed as to the status of our build. They finally started our patio cover on May 25th and it was completed in August. The crew that built our patio cover were EXCELLENT. The Supervisor/Foreman was very knowledgeable and I cannot say enough good things about him and his crew. They did an awesome job. My patio cover turned out great and we are very happy with it, although I'm not totally happy with the electrical work for the ceiling fans. Per the contract, the fans had to be remote controlled. There are 5 72" fans and they are all on one circuit, no on/off switches for any of them, only a single circuit breaker for all the fans and 12 recessed lights. Overall, we are very happy with our patio cover and will enjoy it for many years to come.

Affordable Shade Patio Covers renovated the entire outside of our home - roof, gutters, siding, chimney, deck, patio cover and paint. Our project manager Luis was awesome. He kept us informed on all aspects of the project. He was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He returned our inquiries quickly and ensured that everything was done correctly. Our back deck and patio cover far exceeded our expectations and we are looking forward to spending time there. We have received numerous compliments from our neighbors on how great our home looks! If you are looking for an A+ company to do this type of work, look no farther than Affordable Shade Patio Covers. They are simply the best!

Let me start by saying overall, we were happy with the way our project turned out. We had two patio covers added to the back of our house around a newly remodeled pool deck. The projected was estimated to take about 6 weeks start to finish and ended up taking about 3 months. As with any construction, there were weeks where we saw no one. We had an issue with matching the brick on our home so we ended up requesting another small project to get the bricks we needed to complete the repair of the house. We were told during biding that it would be no problem to match but I understand that things happen. It was just a little frustrating to find out after the brick was demoed that they couldn't match it. The covers are very sturdy and look great. The contractors used were great. However, while building the covers some contractors damaged our pool deck in several places with ladders, paint drips and wood stains. We were told someone would come back and refinish the areas of the deck that were damaged but that never happened. It was even listed in our final paperwork.

Beautiful work. Very professional from start to finish. Excellent customer service. We are very pleased with our beautiful new patio. I highly recommend Affordable Shade Patio Covers.

Best job at the best price! I'm in pearland, Tx and I called 4 different companies including Affordable Shades. 3 quotes for almost $20k - $22k and then affordable was $13k. Kinda worried at first cause they always say "you pay for what you get" but its been 3 months and still love it! Plus they handled all the HOA and WINDSTORM stuff for me, which made the process even easier.

Luis and team did a great job on our custom patio extension! Luis was very involved in the whole process and quickly responded to any questions we had. Prior to starting the project, we had an idea of the final product and I am happy to say that the result exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Luis and Affordable Shade Patio Covers! Kasey B.

I had a patio cover installed about 5 years ago. It has developed a leak. I have called every week for the past 4 weeks and they keep telling me that someone will call me back. First it was suppose to be the individual that takes care of my area, NO CALL BACK!!! Then I was told that the district manager would call, once again, NO CALL BACK!!! Hope the rest of the customers receive better customer service down the road than what we have....

Luis and team did a great job! My wife and I showed him what we were looking for prior to starting the project and it turned out even better than we imagined! Luis was very professional and on top of everything throughout the project. I would highly recommend Luis and Affordable Shade Patio to anyone that is looking to enhance their current or build a new patio!

The why four and not four five star was the 8x8 sets were not smoothed concrete in the merged to existing concrete. Other thing considered they were amazing,

The project was completed on times and without major renovations. The project was laid out to be add to the look of the the new cover.

I will start with we love the new patio cover and do find ourselves spending much more time outside under it. We do wish we could have done this sooner, but we needed to save the funds for it. KC was our project manager. The plans come together just like we reviewed and agreed to and they completed the structure and electrical without any issues including all the city permits. Was delayed several months due to COVID. The main issue we had was not with Affordable Shade company, but the sub contractor they hired to perform the work and they hire the construction crews. Lets just say that they need to be more responsible for the sub-contractors they hire and the agreements those subs make with the work crews. The roof I'm not sure was put on by the best of work crews. I had to have them come out after the shingles were installed and add more sealant around the chimney flashing when I went up on the roof to inspect the roofers work. I saw large unsealed gaps and short pieces of flashing overlapped around the chimney that even I knew shouldn't be that way. Just careless work by those roofers. Later after the project was completed, some of the roof shingles would flip up when I took a leaf blower to the gutters to clean them out (the shingle glue was either not working or they weren't laid down right. I'm sure in a major storm we are going to loose some shingles (I put roof cement under some of those to hold them down). Other than the roofers, I had no issue with any of the other work they did and the cover is great looking, like a natural part of the house. I would recommend them for another job, but be aware that sub contractors need to be watched. (typical it seems, not just Affordable Shade)

Excellent service, Luis Cardenas was our PM, crews did an awesome job, I really liked it because they were experts at everything they did individually,

It's a shame the company was so difficult to deal with and ruined the experience for us because in the end the patio cover is nice, not so much the concrete work though. To begin with the lack of professionalism and terrible communication from project supervisor set the tone for the entire project, he never even came on site to start the job as stated and it was downhill from there. After several problems and failed inspections later we finally had a "finished product" .The project was only supposed to take about a week and ended up taking several months. In the end they still blame us the client for the concrete fiasco but it was indeed the concrete guys who came to us and told us to do it that way it ended up. I would never recommend this company to anyone. I regret every picking this company to do business with.

Great company! K.C made sure that our project was complete to our satisfaction, in a timely manner. The crews were friendly, professional and worked efficiently. We love our patio and could not be happier!!!

Affordable Shade made our ideas and designs a reality. Luis and his crews were professional. Luis was always available to answer any questions I had before, during and after construction.

We are very pleased with our patio.It was very professionally done.We have a great looking patio.I would recommend Affordable to anyone.

The covered and enclosed patio looks beautiful!! The company extended our roof and screened in the patio which gave us the shade and mosquito control we needed while sitting on the patio. Even in the heat, we sit on the patio every evening. We love it!! The contractor who supervised the process was also very accommodating and efficient.

They did a good job on the roof and took extra care on the facia work. I have used them before and I will use them again.

I love my patio; it is beautiful and serves my purpose. Thanks to Affordable Shade Patio Covers I don’t have to worry about water coming into my house to cause damage to the foundation. Thanks to Travis and the whole team for their professionalism, respectfulness and work ethics. Job well done. Rita.

We love our patio cover. We also hired them to do the siding, soffit& fascia on our house. Very professional, excellent work, cleaned up each day not just at end of job. Wonderful company. Travis is an excellent contractor. We have hired them for other projects as well.

Ed, Heriberto, Michelle, and the Affordable Shade team made the entire process very easy for us from start to finish. We are extremely happy with the patio cover and with the repainting of our home. It looks as though the patio cover was built with the house. Ed is awesome! He is a man of his word, he was very patient with us, and he took care of all of our concerns as he ‘held our hands’ throughout the different stages of the project. We will definitely use Affordable Shade on any future projects and we highly recommend them to anybody looking for quality work from good people. Thank you Ed and team! Tony & Tammy Ramos

The installer was fabulous but Mike is who I bought it from and he is not a good sales person. He is not friendly or personable and got very short with me when I was trying to explain I wanted to keep the gutters intact. He told me there was no way at first and I knew there was. In the end, it all worked out but I can’t say I would refer anyone to work with him

Once again these guys did a fabulous job for our new pool patio, it is just what we were looking for and greatly exceeded our expectations.

My small patio was changed into a great casual, entertaining space by the work done by Affordable Shade Company. My patio was enlarged with a sturdy beautiful cover, which included gutters and down spouts. I am extremely pleased with the design, work, cleanup, and price. I highly recommend this company and have done so.

Totally happy with 2 installations done by these professionals. I’ve dealt with many contractors & am so pleased with Mike & the entire team that gave me the exactly what I as looking for! Thank You!

The guys actually preforming the work are fantastic! Roberto and his crew did a fantastic job on our stamped concrete patio and sidewalks! Rodrigo put up our patio cover and we couldn’t be happier! Both of these guys were a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend them to anyone wanting high quality work done on their house. The project manager, K.C. Dunham, is a different story. This guy is a total nitwit. I should have known something was wrong when he couldn’t tell me his price for concrete by the square foot. It all started with a contract that was written for new Hardie lap siding, a patio cover and a stamped concrete patio. Problem 1: We didn’t ask for lap siding. We wanted Hardie panel. Had to get him to change the contract. Problem 2: K.C.’s estimate for siding was $3800. The actual cost was $9000. Problem 3: The new Hardie was delivering in the pouring rain and left uncovered, voiding the warranty. K.C. ‘s response: “It doesn’t matter.” Problem 4: They installed wet Hardie on the house. It had to be removed and replaced. And they installed Hardie plank, even after making them change the contract to Hardie panel. Problem 5: They improperly installed the window flashing tape. Had to call them back to fix it before the real siding went up. Problem 6: They ran out of soffit material and left 12 feet of soffit open for 3 days. I had to call them out to cover it after removing a squirrel from my attic. Problem 7: They had to install a brand new storm door 3 times, over 2 weeks, to finally get it right. Problem 8: They painted the house about three weeks ago, but can’t seem to make it back to paint all of the places they didn’t paint. Do not let K.C Dunham “manage” your project. You will be managing it yourself. We signed a contract in November 2018, still waiting to finish up on April 15, 2019.

It has been a great experience working with Ed Waters and the groups that have built my Patio Cover. As usual there have been some issue but all have been overcome. Great effort from Design to installation. Have had several of my neighbors stop by and asks who did the work and I passed on that information.

Very impressed with their work as well as their workers. They were here when they said they would be very little disruption to the household and just an all around pleasant experience. They took care of all permitting with city and hoa. I love the the outdoor space they built and the quality of their work.

I love my new patio cover! It turned out great. It looks like it was part of the house. I have received many compliments! I now have a great outdoor living space. It feels like I almost have another room. Mike Gannon did a good job of conveying the costs and timeline. There were a few hiccups along the way but were minor. I would recommend Affordable Shade Patio Covers.

I have been very satisfied with our new patio cover. The construction is very high quality. The structure is windstorm certified. This addition has been a major improvement for our home. since completion of the project it has become our alternate living room. When weather permits we are out there with our guests.

The project manager addressed all of my requests and issues in a timely manner, and ensured that every detail was complete to my satisfaction.

I highly recommend this company! My salesman, Travis, was absolutely the best ever! He went above and beyond to make everything happen that needed to happen! My patio is awesome and I love it. I highly recommend this company to everyone!

I used Affordable Shade for a covered patio addition at my home. Mike and his folks did an outstanding job and I would not hesitate to use them again. The entire process was smooth and the quality work is first class. Drawings, permits, windstorm certificate, and everything else was taken care of. Thanks.

We had two aluminum pergolas built off the back of our home. They are absolutely beautiful. We went with aluminum because we felt it would be much easier to maintain. It looks like brown-stained wood. We went with 10 inch round pillars in a beige color and they really add a beautiful touch. I can’t rave enough about John and the builders. They were all so kind and respectful, and they went above and beyond to meet our needs.

Great job, on time with project. Was able to match paint, bricking and gutter work. We had a huge job they were able to complete pretty quickly especially during rainy season. Our house will probably fall before the patio. They did permits, and hurricane reinforcements and used pillars to tie into ground and existing roof. You can’t even tell it was an addition or add on. And prices were affordable

John and his team has done an excellent job on building a large patio cover which connected to the back of my house. They all are professional hard working staffs, respectful, and always making sure to meet our expectations on every single details. I would definitely will use this company again in the future and highly recommended them. We have been enjoying and love our new patio cover. Thank you John and all of his team for a beautiful patio cover.

The entire process of having patio built was outstanding Mr Ed and crew Were very professional and organized Patio looks fantastic!

We are so pleased and proud of our new patio cover. Affordable Shade Patio Covers was very professional in every way. Work crews were extremely knowledgeable and courteous, and they showed up when expected. The quality of the work performed is outstanding. We would gladly recommend this company to anyone seeking a shade patio cover.

I love my patio cover, it looks great. The project was professionally done and in a timely manner, all within my budget. The entire team did an excellent job, I couldn’t be more pleased.

Mike was very helpful. Towards the end of the job, because of the design of the house at the back patio, the aesthetics were not symmetrical. Mike and his crew made sure that we were ultimately satisfied with the finished product. I would recommend Affordable Shade.

very professional; on time with estimate; began project on time and worked on cold weather days when able, it is a beautiful cover and I am happy to show it to others

Excellent service and workmanship. Am very happy and delighted in my new patio roof! Have been showing it off to many of my friends and neighbors!

The patio looks great! Ed and his team made the entire project flow smoothly and have been easy to work with at every step of the project. Ed has went above and beyond to ensure that we are happy with the entire project. We have and will continue to recommend Affordable Shade Patio Covers of Houston.

Affordable Patio did an excellent job at building our patio from start to finish. Kept us informed of every detail. Managed to finish at scheduled time with crazy weather.

We were very impressed with Affordable Shade Patio covers personnel and the result we wanted for our patio. All appointments were on time and Mike took care of the details with our HOA. We are extremely happy with our patio cover and with the professionalism and results of Affordable Shade Patio Covers.

Crews did a fantastic job, and we are very pleased with our patio project. Have already recommended them to some of our friends.

My experience with Affordable Shades rates as one of the worst contract experiences I have endured. My contract clearly lays out expectations and responsibilities of both parties. My contract was executed on June 12, 2017, work began in late September, and as of December 1, 2017, it is not complete (electrical does not work, gutters not installed, metal rod protruding from the pool deck). Despite the remaining work, Ryan with Affordable Shades demands payment of the 10% retainer prior to completion. If you have a two-story home, and you decide to do business with Affordable Shades, and your contract stipulates they will run a tv cable to your attic for your access, be sure to point out to Ryan the house has two stories. Somehow, he missed that fact. The cost to you for correction of his over-sites is significant. It is my belief if he misses something, even though it is in the contract, he will look to you to pay an additional amount to complete the work. In defense of their subcontractors who built the structure, the project, despite minor faults, looks to be an attractive and well built. The people on the job doing the work seemed friendly and conscientious. Don’t expect direct supervision from your Affordable Shades supervisor or timely follow ups. You’ll need to ride him and repeatedly remind him of the work that needs to be completed. I do not believe a patio cover should take over two months to complete. We certainly have our disagreements. I believe the attached emails clearly lay out each of our perspectives.

Affordable Shade Patio Covers turned our unusable concrete slab into a cozy beach themed getaway. Ed Waters and his job foreman Junior were very professional. They kept the project on time and budget despite encountering issues that arose while adding on to an existing structure. I'm retired, everyday I had interaction with the contractors all of whom were very professional, friendly and fun to interact with. The quality of the work is outstanding, from matching new materials to existing siding and shingles to keeping the area clean and usable during the construction process. Our home was Blessed not to suffer damage from hurricane Harvey. In it's aftermath I received a call from Affordable Shade asking after our situation with offers of mitigation and debris removal if needed, That's a great commitment to customers and community. I'm so pleased with ASPC's service and product that I've recommended them to several neighbors and friends.

These guys knocked it out for our family. Each crew they sent to do whichever job the crew was responsible for were outstanding truthfully. They cleaned up after themselves, they were professional and they knew what they were doing. I couldn't be more thrilled with what they built for me and for our house. We'll enjoy the outside setting for years to come.

Ryan did a great job coordinating and explaining the entire process. The crew that came out did a great job and finished as promised. The patio cover was exactly what we were looking for.

The company is very professional and well-run. All the work was done on schedule. The person who first came out to talk to me about the work and gave me the proposal was involved in the project throughout and made sure that I was satisfied. Some of the things I asked for were not well-defined and changed throughout the project but the company was able to adapt and accomodate my desires.

This was one of the best contractors that I have ever worked with. Everyone was pleasant to work with the and work went well from start to finish. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

We had a patio cover put up and it literally transformed our entire backyard. Everyone from the front office, sales rep, and installers were top notch! I would totally recommend these guys!

Custom Patio Covers designed and built a first class patio cover in back of my house that looks like it was built with the house. Workmanship was excellent and the construction schedule was on track. The design process took longer than I had expected however.

The work on our patio cover was done very professionally from start to finish. Once the job began all the contractors arrived on time, were very competent, and the job was completed in a very efficient manor. Mike worked very closely with us and the contractors and we could not be more pleased with the results. The project was completed on schedule and budget based on the initial review and was very easy on our part with Mike taking care of all the inspections and approvals. I would highly recommend Affordable Shade and Patio Covers to anyone wanting a quality job with minimal anxiety.

These folks added a porch cover on to my house. Job scope and completion was to our expectations. I would recommend these folks. This is the second job they have done for me. Good people to deal with !

Very professional at work. Our patio was beautifully installed and the area was left clean every day . Each and every concern and issues was handled and taken care of very well. I highly recommend Affordable Shades a's they are truly affordable with high quality of work.

Affordable Shade Patio crews were very professional and experienced, they did a great job on my patio. They came in on budget No cost overruns.

Very professional. They do what they say they will. They did a very good job on our patio cover. This is the 2nd job they have done for us and I highly recommend.

They have done an excellent job although a little slow maybe due to the delay in getting permissions from the city and the home owner's association.

These guys were great. Everything was well planned and well done until I made the mistake of paying the contract in full and I gave the positive feedback before everything was done. I had to make repeated calls to get the excess materials off my property. There was a seam that needed to be repaired and it took several calls to get that fixed. The contract promised to seal the slab after 28 days. I am not going to make calls to get them back to d the seal and I am sure if they come back it will only be because they expected a good review from me but saw this.

I had a wonderful experience building my patio cover with Affordable Shade. Excellent customer service, polite workers, prompt response, and quality craftsmanship. would highly recommend them to anyone!

The entire experience with the affordable shade company was excellent! From design to complete project managers were available and ready to meet our needs. The finished project is beautiful! We love our stamped concrete patio!

Mark was so easy to work with and he took care of every detail. The finished patio cover looks amazing! It looks like it was always a part of the house. The attention to detail shows and the workers cleaned up their debris every evening when they left. I will definitely be using Affordable Shade again in the future soon!!

Overall, quality workmanship. I would definately recommend. Must be willing to be patient. Process takes time with permits and windstorm certificates and re-inspections. But our patio is beautiful. We had one place that worried us, and they came right out and corrected it immediately. Color of paint was also matched perfectly. The office ladies were great and listened to my requests for updates. Easy to work with everyone. Thanks! The only reason I didn't give a perfect score was it took a lot longer than we were expecting. But it is done, and is beautiful!

We had the siding done on the engrossing house and garage. They put in a new cement slab, complete with a french drain; and a pergola. Everything is beautiful. They paid attention to every detail and had very good work ethic. I have small children who require naps and they were very respectful of that hour. The best part for me was Mark Vasquez. He was easy to talk to and very respectful. And he was always easy to get a hold of on the telephone. I felt like his only client, even though I know I wasn't. My only critique is, the guys would sometimes leve their trash in my yard and that included cigarette butts. I have a toddler that put everything in his mouth so I had to clean up after them at the end of the day a few times. Other than that I would recommend affordable shades to anyone. Thank you for you time and talent.

We met with Affordable Shades salesman, Joe Johnston, in September to begin the design phase for our new patio cover. Joe was patient with our periodic indecision and offered alternative ideas when we were at an impass. Finally a contract was signed. Communication with the office team leading up to our construction start date was a great experience. Construction of the roof began in November and was complete within 4 business days (plus one rain delay day). We were amazed! The construction crew worked so well together as a team - everyone knew their job. There wasn't a minute of down time except to break for lunch. Whenever we had questions about a process they were answered professionally and with great curtesy. At the end of construction the crew cleaned up our back yard to the point that we couldn't even tell they had been there. We love our new patio roof.

My recently completed patio by affordable shade was a wonderful job well done. The job was finished in less than two weeks. The work all look great exceeding my expectation , this is truly a great job

Fantastic experience with the Affordable Shade Team! All were extremely courteous, professional and friendly. Our patio and patio cover project went as planned, on time and without issue. We are very happy with the work we had completed and we highly recommend this team for all your patio and patio cover needs! Thank you Affordale Shade Team!

I hired Affordable Shade to cover my exterior patio..They were very punctual in meeting to review the project and completed the work in two days..We spend all of our time outside now and love the new space that was created by covering the deck..

The quality of the work is excellent; however, I am not at all happy with the duration of the project. Was told the job would only take about 3 weeks; we are now 10weeks out & still not finished. Granted, there were some rain issues involved, but not enough to extend the timeframe this much. Communication is very poor from the Representative; in nearly all instances, we had to call them to get updates. One night, the contractors stayed until 1:00 am, stamping the concrete. Since we live in a town home community, you can imagine that our neighbors were NOT happy. Other than this one incident, the workers were, in general, very professional. I would NOT recommend this company to others, though, due to the extended timeframe & lack of communication.

I am a do it yourself guy. We recently put in a pool and wanted to add a covered Patio. We had an existing cement deck to work with. Due to the angle of the breezeway that connected our home to the garage I was concerned about how to connect our new patio cover in a way that did not look awkward. Affordable Shades Patio Covers sent out Ryan Moffitt. He assured me this was a piece of cake. I'm thinking yeah, right. The pricing was right, I gave them the job. They sent out two guys that seemed to know what they were doing and to my surprise, they never skipped a beat. When they finished, I was quite impressed with everything they did. In short, Ryan and his team did an excellent job. Myself and my wife of 30 years could not be happier, and thanks to them, " A HAPPY WIFE IS A HAPPY LIFE". And for that I would recommend Affordable Shade to anybody, WE LOVE OUR NEW PATIO! Jack & Sheila Wernli

Within ten minutes of contacting an agent I had an appointment set. Contractors came out looked over everything gave a quote and within 2 days of starting job was complete. Couldn't ask for better customer service or any higher quality of work

Excellent Job! Our new patio shade looks as if it were always part of the house! They were even able to perfectly match the paint color!

Broke Ground 2/3/2015 Work completion 3/27/15 GOOD: Overall, the bid was on par with competitors and the construction of cover was done with good speed and workmanship. The Carpenter and his supervisor was detail oriented and communicated well over course of the assigned work. Very nice Patio Cover installation. BAD: During installation, and up to the partial completion time, the electrician and concrete installers attempted to provide lesser than described materials and workmanship. workers did not adhere to all work described by agreement, verbal or written. The supervisors argued, attempted to dissuade and used terms like "wasn't nailed down" when referring to agreed upon details. Concrete work was not performed to "industry standards". To Affordable Shade (AS), apparently, this can be subjective. AS's supervisors overseeing and inspecting the work needed other professionals (at our cost) to confirm the unmet "workmanship" and "Industry Standards" before any resolution. AS employs somewhat confrontational personnel in these two trades that show little respect for you or your property. We were left replacing grass over the length of the work walkway, installing our own fan blade gaskets and a broken hose reel box. NEEDS IMPROVEMENT: AS's owners showed little interest in resolution. One owner commented "I typically do not call our supervisors customers. All our supervisors manage their own projects start to finish." (Harry White, 2/6/2015) Given our experience with Affordable Shade, we could not condemn the whole experience, we would recommend the service and professionalism of the patio installer and supervisor. Thanks again Ryan and Sammy.

I had a small concrete patio installed in my backyard. The price was fair and they did the job withing a couple of weeks after getting the estimate. I like how the price included excavation of my dirt and rocks to clear the way. They did a great job with the leveling of it, whereas the rain water flows away from the house properly. Very happy.

Affordable Shade built a beautiful patio cover for us! The back of our house is shaped like a "U" with two of the rooms extending out and patio in the middle. It was a difficult tie in for the roof. Affordable Shade did a very professional job. Our patio cover is beautiful and we are enjoying our evenings there and also able to sit under it in some of the inclement weather we have been having. The company met deadlines and there were no surprises on the amount to be financed. We are completely satisfied with the experience we had with this company and have been referring them to everyone we know.

We love how our shade arbor turned out. It is a beautiful addition to our backyard. Customer service could have been better.

We are very happy with our patio project. We added a 23 x 15 foot open gabled patio cover with stamped and stained concrete. We also had a 9 x 9 matching pad with pergola done for our hot tub. We were pleased with Joe our project coordinator, the construction crew was very good, the concrete guys did an amazing job. The only disappointment was with the electrical contractors work, they didn't seem prepared and wanted to rush. Overall it was a good experience and we would recommend affordable shade to others.

Overall , I was very happy with this company. They were prompt to respond to my inquiry and gave me a fast and immediate quote which was fair and competitive. They built a really large patio for me, replacing one that was built at a flat and bad angle, causing mold. I am pleased with what they did. It is professional, and quality work. I would say there is one thing they could do better. That would be to either hire a guttering person or enter into an agreement with one so you can get the entire package and not have to do outside bids and work for the guttering. I would hire this group again in an instant. If you look at my reviews, you can see I have had more good than bad experiences and I am a tough and true critic I think this was a really good experience. :). I did have to nudge them to finish at the end, but frankly I was ok with that based on the job.

We hired Affordable Shade Patio Covers to extend out the roof over our backyard patio in the spring of 2014. We are extremely happy with the quality of workmanship and professionalism of the on-site crew. They were respectful, kept the worksite clean and very efficient. That said, we waited several months for our wind certificate (finally received it this autumn) and there were a few punch list items promised that were not followed through on. We would definitely hire this company again, but would also hold back on the payment until everything was complete.

We contracted Affordable Shade to remove an existing patio cover and build a replacement. We weren't replacing it with an identical cover. We wanted a higher quality cover with pizazz. The problem was we couldn't articulate exactly what we wanted but we could explain things we did and didn't like on other patios. Our project manager was Mark Vasquez. He was awesome! He listened to the things we did/didn't like and was able to sketch out a design. The moment we looked at it we knew that was it. Absolutely incredible!!! The project started and I have to say it went very well. The various workers throughout all stages of the build was very prideful in their work, very courteous and considerate, and never settled for less than perfection even if that meant calling a time out and strategizing. I can't say enough good things about this company and the ability Mark Vasquez had to envision our patio and enlist all the right people to make a top notch patio cover. We would definitely recommend them to all our family, friends and community. In two words.....THEY DELIVER!!!!

service was excellent built a covered patio with an arbor ,lights ceiling fans, textured concrete , very professional would recommend very highly

They installed a patio cover on the back of my house. The foreman was a real professional and gave me some great ideas. As the project was coming along, I made a couple of changes to the original plan and they were receptive to my changes without any complaints. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to install a patio.

I could not be happier with the job that Affordable Shade did on our house. We had a large (~650 sq. ft.) covered patio added to cover our back deck. Our project manager Mark kept in constant communication with us, the workers were very professional and courteous, and the work itself was flawless.

Affordable Shade quoted, provided fantastic support through the HOA approval process and arrived on time. Their crew was polite and did a fantastic job. I would recoemmend them for any outdoor shade project!

My wife and I had to replace a deteriorated gazebo over an existing jacuzzi. Affordable Shade removed the old structure and built a new one in the same footprint and location. The work was completed on time and to our satisfaction.

Can't say enough about the work Affordable Shade does! We love our finished Covered Patio. Joe put so much attention to detail and made changes on the fly when we thought something might look even better. We couldn't be happier!

We were very pleased with the work done by Affordable Shade. Chris Ring gave us a very reasonable quote and was attentive as the project manager. Our screened porch was a complicated job and required the crew to do a number of adjustments on site. They used excellent materials. The work of the subs who did the screening and concrete stamping was also good and effectively coordinated. We would recommend Chris and Affordable Shade to friends or neighbors.

Affordable shade did an awesome job on our back patio. The work was beautiful, the employees respectful and professional. I had a tight deadline and they sis everything they could to meet it! Will definitely use them again and highly recommend them. Kevin sold me!!

We had a patio cover built over our deck area that tied into our existing roof. It turned out very well, they were able to keep the same pitch of our roofline and so it looks like it was always there. Our salesman Mark was a great help plus the workers were very professional and did a great job. Couldn't be any happier

Very professional sales person who followed up well. The construction crew was very proficient and finished in record time. Excellent professional job.

From start to completion, fantastic! With 35 + years experience in construction I know what to look for, details were adhered to, timely starts and completion each day, great work ethic from Sammy and his crew, if you need a reference, call me!! We are very impressed with all aspects and the value added to our home far outweighs the cost, we would recommend Affordable Shade to anyone contemplating such an addition.. Bruce & Carol Mitchell.

We had an ideal of the patio cover design we wanted and the final product was exactly what we had in mind. Affordable Shade took care of everything including submissions to the HOA and permits. Everyone was informative and professional throughout the duration of the project. My family is extremely satisfied with our new outdoor space.

Affordable Shade did an outstanding job of adding a covered patio to our home, including the cover, the stamped and stained concrete patio and the screen enclosure. We selected Affordable Shade because they made the patio cover an extension of our existing home instad of merely an add-on. The crews were professional, conscientious and paid attention to the details. We couldn't be happier with the result.
