Project Overview
Client: Residential
Location: Neighborhood with multiple Lapis projects (12–15 jobs nearby)
Our client wanted more shade and privacy for his sun-exposed backyard while keeping clear views from his living room. Lapis Patios & Hardscapes designed and built a custom pergola with an integrated privacy wall, blending perfectly with the existing paver patio.
Goals and Challenges
Goals:
- Add shade for comfort
- Create tasteful privacy from neighbors
- Maintain unobstructed backyard views
Challenges:
- Backyard had little natural shade
- Needed structural footings without disturbing existing pavers
- Privacy wall had to feel light and complement the pergola
Our Solution
We installed a custom-stained pergola with a discreet privacy wall on the neighbor-facing side. Select pavers were removed to pour secure footings, then reinstalled with polymeric sand for a seamless finish.
Key Details:
- Posts placed to keep indoor views intact
- Smooth integration with the patio
- Privacy panel balanced for style and function
Light rain caused minor delays but did not impact the yard or timeline.
Results
Immediate Impact:
- Client quickly furnished and started using the new shaded area
- Final wood staining scheduled to complete the project
- Estimated 70–80% of pergola cost added back in property value
- Enhanced daily enjoyment and curb appeal
