Commercial Services We Provide
We offer a comprehensive range of commercial outdoor solutions, using top-tier materials and technology to ensure longevity and performance. Our core services for business clients include;
Motorized Shade Screens
Louvered Pergola
Patio Enclosures
Retractable screens that integrate into patios, pergolas, or openings. At the touch of a button, you can enclose a porch or outdoor area with mesh screens that provide shade and block wind or bugs without sacrificing the open-air feel. Our motorized screens are customized to fit your space and disappear when not needed, offering a convenient way to create a pest-free, cooler environment on demand.
Modern aluminum pergolas with adjustable louvers that open or close at the push of a button, giving you on-demand sun, shade, or rain protection. These motorized roof systems create flexible outdoor seating that adapts to weather, so patrons stay comfortable in blazing sun or a sudden downpour. By adding a louvered pergola, businesses can expand usable patio space and provide all-season comfort, effectively increasing seating capacity
Custom-designed glass enclosures that allow you to convert an outdoor area into a year-round space. We’ve helped restaurant owners enclose patios with sleek glass walls and aluminum framing, so they can operate in good weather as an open-air café and quickly close it during bad weather to keep guests comfortable. These enclosures effectively create a four-season outdoor dining room, expanding your floor space and letting diners enjoy atmosphere any time.

Tailored Design & Build Excellence
Every project begins with your vision. Our architects and builders design bespoke structures that align with your establishment’s style and goals. Whether you envision a cozy pergola-covered dining area for a café or a sleek, glass-enclosed rooftop lounge for a hotel, we have the capability to design and build from scratch to your specifications. Because we handle everything in-house (no subcontractors), we maintain strict quality control and seamless execution from start to finish. The result is a one-of-a-kind outdoor space that not only looks stunning but is tailored to how you want to use it – ensuring form and function are perfectly in sync.
Experience All-Weather Comfort
Outdoor spaces should be enjoyable in every season, and our aluminum products are designed to make that possible. Built with high-quality, powder-coated aluminum, these structures provide unparalleled resistance to rain, snow, strong winds, and UV exposure.
Unlike traditional wood pergolas or patio enclosures that require frequent maintenance and are susceptible to warping or rotting, aluminum ensures longevity with minimal upkeep. With our corrosion-resistant and rust-proof designs, your pergola will maintain its sleek and modern appearance for years to come.

You can also outfit structures with accessories like integrated LED lighting, heaters, and climate controls to extend the usability of the space into the evening and cooler months.
Closing Solutions for Added Comfort - and Protection
If you’re looking for enhanced privacy, better shading, improved insulation, or protection from wind and rain, you can upgrade your pergola with customizable closing solutions.

How will a commercial outdoor living upgrade impact our customer experience and ROI?
Investing in an outdoor living space can greatly enhance your customers’ experience and your bottom line. Diners and guests are naturally drawn to enjoyable outdoor areas – in fact, 54% of people say they’re more likely to choose a restaurant that offers outdoor seating which means more traffic for you. A well-designed patio or rooftop lounge also increases your seating capacity and keeps guests staying longer, directly boosting sales. Studies have shown that a simple outdoor patio can increase revenues by up to 30%, delivering a strong return on investment.
Are your outdoor installations durable for commercial use and easy to maintain?
Our commercial outdoor installations are built to be extremely durable and low-maintenance. We use high-quality, commercial-grade materials like extruded aluminum frames and premium composites that are designed to withstand heavy use and harsh weather. Aluminum structures won’t warp, rust, or rot over time, which means your pergolas or enclosures will look great for years with virtually no upkeep beyond occasional cleaning.
Can the outdoor space be customized to fit our business’s brand and needs?
Yes – every design is fully custom-tailored to your business’s brand, space, and goals. Our design team works closely with you to capture the look and functionality you want, whether that means a cozy winery patio or a sleek modern rooftop lounge. With experience creating one-of-a-kind outdoor spaces for restaurants, wineries, and rooftop venues across Virginia, Maryland, and D.C., we know how to incorporate elements that resonate with your clientele.

Dream Outdoor Solutions understands that timing is critical for your business. We provide a clear project timeline up front and strive to meet every deadline.
