From the roofio down, we’ve got you covered, with one licensed team and one warranty.

Your Outdoor Room

Get More Out of Your Outdoor Space

Your patio should be somewhere you actually want to be. Outdoor shades block harsh afternoon sun, cut glare so you can see the TV, keep bugs out, and add privacy from neighbors, all while protecting your furniture and flooring from UV damage.nnMotorized patio shades lower at the touch of a button or on a schedule, so you can open up the space or close it off in seconds. The result is an outdoor room you can enjoy in comfort through more of the year.

Shade Options

Motorized and Fixed Shade Options

roofio offers a range of outdoor shade solutions to fit how you use your space:

  • Motorized outdoor shades that raise and lower with a remote or app
  • Outdoor roller shades in a variety of fabrics and opacities
  • Retractable patio screens that disappear when you don’t need them
  • Motorized screens for large openings and patios
  • Fixed shades for a permanent, always-on solution

We help you choose the right fabric opacity, from light-filtering to near-blackout, so you get the balance of shade, view, and privacy you want.

Talk to a Shade Expert
What do outdoor shades actually block?

Quality outdoor shades cut sun and glare, reduce heat, keep out bugs, add privacy, and protect furniture and flooring from UV damage. The right fabric opacity determines how much light and view you keep.

Should I get motorized or fixed shades?

Motorized patio shades give you flexibility to open or close the space in seconds, while fixed shades offer a simple, always-in-place solution. roofio will help you choose based on how you use your patio and your budget.

Can outdoor shades hold up to Texas wind and sun?

Yes, when they’re made and installed right. roofio uses weather-rated materials and installs each system securely and custom-fit to your home to handle Texas conditions.

Will I still be able to see out?

Usually, yes. Many fabrics let you see out during the day while reducing glare and heat, and you can choose more opaque fabrics where you want extra privacy. We’ll match the opacity to your goals.

Can you shade a large or unusual patio?

Yes. roofio custom-fits shades and motorized screens to spaces of many shapes and sizes, including wide openings and covered patios.

How much do custom outdoor shades cost?

It depends on the size of the openings, the fabric, and whether you choose motorized or fixed shades. roofio provides a clear, personalized quote after measuring your space.
