You may have several trees in your yard to provide shade around your home. If you need other areas kept from the sun’s exposure, here are a few suggestions. Pergola not only provides shade but you can brighten it up with intertwining with fabric to give it color and extra blocking from the sun. Retractable awnings will give you shade or sun on your porch or patio. A variety of oversized umbrellas gives texture, color and design to your home. Canvas fabric, overlapping sails will wear nicely and will shield the areas of the patio and porch, present your home flair, color and protection from the rays. Whatever you choose will give you relief from the hot sunny days.
