    Lighting coming unglued.

    Not big on leaving reviews unless something is awesome or horrible and this fits in the horrible category. From the start it's been an uphill battle where our Liferoom was supposed to be started around a certain time, finished around a certain date, to permits not being taken care of as discussed. Most problems I can deal with and I'm a very patient person and I understand completion dates are estimated but we're 6 months in to having a fancy Alumawood patio cover that is still yet to be 100% completed. Communication with Troy (the owner) has been less than ideal and while going through this process, Bryce has since taken over handling more of the day to day operations, which had improved our situation and things were getting fixed, but now I haven't heard anything. When the Liferoom was "finished", a strip of the mood lighting did not work. A short time later, one of the motorized screens some how got off track. Now the strips of mood lighting are falling down and with the recent rain, the roof began to leak. We've invested too much money in something that hasn't functioned properly from the start. Again, things not working properly from the manufacturer I will not fault the company for, but not going above and beyond to make the situation right, especially things within their control, I'm definitely not okay with that. Most recently the 1 Liferoom installer (Edgar) they have hurt his back and was out. I read a review of a project completed on 2/27, which said "Edgar did a great job". I was told he was hurt in January and haven't heard any updates about fixing my issues because I figured he was still injured. He's obviously back to work. I'll refrain from commenting on any other work they do, but if you're looking to get a Liferoom built, I highly suggest going elsewhere. This was a miserable process that's still incomplete but they're already paid and on to the next job. Guess I'll still just continue to impatiently wait my turn to fix my issues so I can possibly have full functionality of something I waited a long time to finally purchase. See photos for some of the issues I've been referring to.

    We went through countless contractors for quotes and chose SoCal because of Jeff their salesman. He was honest and upfront. We are so happy with our patio. Their installers were polite and cleanly. Can't wait to enjoy our patio all summer long

    Patio Guy

    After meeting with Adam and several other contractors, I decided to go with Patio Guy not only…read morebecause of his five-star rating, but several other factors that were important to me (and probably you as well): 1) He could deliver and install my new cover within a week vs. the other guys taking months; 2) I wasn't limited to just the AlumaWood product (which wasn't modern enough for me), and (3) his price to install with an upgraded cover (insulated) was far below his competitors constrained by higher overhead and slower delivery times. I ended up selecting a Duralum cover that his company also offers, and I'm glad I did. It's just the look I was going for. I was also impressed with Adam's business model, which is built on quality and efficiency at a very reasonable price without cutting corners or sacrificing customer service. Now for the best part: A guy named Brody, his lead installer. In addition to being a super nice guy, his work is meticulous. The back of my home isn't linear, so there are bump-outs and protrusions, making the installation more difficult and time consuming. This wasn't the slightest challenge for Brody and his team. The finished product is snuggled tightly against my stucco and professionally sealed on the roof to prevent any water dripping through when it rains. I watched him work, measuring and cutting the aluminum to match my home so the fit and finish is far greater than I imagined. As you can tell from the photos, I still have work to do (concrete coating, fence repairs, etc.) to match the beauty of my new cover.

    Great team and great pricing! Super efficient install! Super happy with how it turned out!!read more

    We recently had an amazing experience with Where Shade Is Made in Anaheim and I wanted to share…read more A couple of years ago we had awnings installed by another company. During the recent windstorm we forgot to retract the awning and it was damaged. I first called the original installer, and unfortunately the experience was very disappointing. The first thing they told us was that the damage wouldn't be covered because we didn't retract it during the wind storm, and the customer service was extremely rude. It also reminded me how difficult it was working with them in the first place, they gave us the runaround for almost 6 months before the original installation. After that, I reached out to Where Shade Is Made, and the difference was night and day. I spoke directly with the owner, who assured me I would get a call Monday morning to schedule the repair. Sure enough, Monday morning I received a call from Jimmy their GM, and from that point on everything was smooth and professional. By the very next day our shade was repaired and working perfectly again. Even better, Jimmy let us know that the repair didn't require as much work as originally expected, which actually made the final cost lower than the quote. That kind of honesty and customer service is rare these days. Thank you Where Shade Is Made for the amazing service. I truly appreciate the professionalism and quick turnaround. I would absolutely recommend them to all my friends and family.

    Extremely Disappointed - Warranty Ignored Despite Multiple Follow-Ups…read more I'm genuinely disappointed that I have to leave this review just to try and get a response. In 2023, I purchased a large custom awning for my backyard, paying over $13,000. I was told it came with a warranty, which was one of the main reasons I chose this company. In April 2024, I noticed one of the corners had started tearing. I called the company immediately. The receptionist, Pam, mentioned she was retiring and gave me John's direct number. When I spoke with John, he said he needed to verify my warranty. A few days later, he confirmed it and told me that Brian would be contacting me to take care of the issue. I spoke with Brian on May 6 and even included a screenshot of our conversation. Since then, I've followed up multiple times via phone and text. He promised to schedule a tarp pickup--but never showed up. No updates, no calls back. Completely unreliable. As a repeat customer--having purchased not one but two awnings from this company--I expected better. The quality of their work is good, but that means nothing if they disappear the moment you need warranty support. If you're considering working with this company, be warned: they may deliver a great product, but if something goes wrong, you're on your own. The lack of communication and accountability is incredibly frustrating and unprofessional. I truly hope this review gets their attention, because I'd still like to see this handled the right way. If the company makes this right, I will gladly remove this review. But as of now, I cannot recommend them.
