Sealed, shaded patios for Garland's lakeside and golf-course homes — owner-led install, with the City of Garland permit handled.
Garland's best backyards sit on the water and the fairways — the lakeside homes along Lake Ray Hubbard and the golf-course estates around Firewheel's 63 holes — and both come with afternoon sun off the water and mosquitoes from it. Motorized retractable screens turn an open Garland patio into a sealed, shade-controlled outdoor room at the touch of a button, then roll away for the lake or course view.
Garland sits on the western shore of Lake Ray Hubbard, which means standing water and mosquito pressure are never far from a Garland patio, and the city sprays on a positive-trap basis through the season. Garland is also unusual: it runs its own municipal electric utility, Garland Power & Light, serving most of the city — so the permit and the electrical tie-in for a motorized screen are handled right here in town. We pull the City of Garland permit and coordinate the licensed electrical work as part of the job.
Garland's premier enclaves sit on the 63-hole Firewheel golf complex and along the shore of Lake Ray Hubbard — big-lot, fairway-and-lakefront backyards built for outdoor living. A retractable screen gives them bug and glare control without a permanent wall blocking the view, and it disappears when you want the patio open.
Garland's housing stock leans established — solid ranch homes on generous lots, many with a covered patio already in place — which makes them clean retrofit candidates, often just a motor and an electrical tie-in rather than new structure. We confirm what the City of Garland requires on every job and handle the permit and wiring.
Garland requires a permit for a patio cover or attached structure and for the electrical work that powers a motor — and because Garland runs its own electric utility, Garland Power & Light, it's all handled in town. A screen on an existing covered patio may only need the electrical permit; we confirm with the City of Garland and handle it.
Yes. Garland sits on the western shore of Lake Ray Hubbard, so standing water and mosquito pressure are close to home, and the city sprays when traps come back positive. A sealed motorized screen keeps a lakeside or golf-course patio usable at dusk while keeping the view.
Firewheel Estates, The Greens, Club Hill, the Shores of Eastern Hills, Springpark and Garland's established golf-course and lakeside enclaves.
Often, yes. Garland's established ranch homes frequently already have a covered patio in place, so the screen install is often just a motor and an electrical tie-in rather than new structure — one of the cleaner retrofits we do.
