Over recent years we have used different parasols to try and provide some shade in the summer, but they never shaded everyone and were of no use in the rain.
The designAt first, The Glass Room Company liaised with the client over email and telephone to provide some initial concepts and details of the PergoTex textile roof system. The reason for us recommending the use of this system was because of the client’s need to shade a larger area, as well as provide rain protection.
