Exterior Patio Shades in Sammamish
Custom Outdoor Shades for Decks, Patios & More
Sammamish summers are gorgeous, but the low-horizon sun we get year-round can turn a beautiful deck or patio uncomfortable fast. Gotcha Covered offers custom Exterior Patio Shades designed to make your outdoor living spaces usable and enjoyable, whatever the sun is doing. Our free design consultations come to you, so we’re assessing your actual space, not guessing from a showroom floor.
We’re locally owned and part of the Greater Eastside community. The Gotcha Covered network has earned 15,000+ five-star reviews across 150+ locations, and we back every project with the same consultative approach and long-term support our customers have relied on since 1991.

What Exterior Patio Shades Do for Your Outdoor Space
The right outdoor patio shades do more than block the sun. Here’s what they bring to a Sammamish deck, patio, or covered outdoor area:
Comfort & Sun Control
Exterior shades filter UV rays, cut glare, and reduce heat buildup, so your outdoor space can stay comfortable during peak daylight hours without losing the open-air feel.
Bug Barrier
When fully lowered, outdoor patio shades create a screened-in porch feeling on demand, keeping mosquitoes and flies out without permanent screens.
Weather & Wind Protection
Shades shield your space from rain, wind, and debris, extending the usable season beyond what an uncovered patio allows.
Privacy Screening
Enjoy your patio or balcony without worrying about sightlines from neighboring properties. Shade level is adjustable depending on which style you choose.
Protection for Outdoor Furniture
Filtering UV exposure helps your furniture and fabrics hold their color and condition longer.
Energy Efficiency
Exterior patio shades block heat before it enters your home, reducing the load on your cooling system during warm months.
A Relationship Beyond Installation
What sets us apart isn’t just the product selection. It’s the process. Our design consultants meet with you in your own space, learn how you use your outdoor area, and match custom outdoor blinds and shades to your style, structure, and needs. We handle precise measuring and professional installation, so nothing is left to guesswork.
Our Clients for Life commitment means the relationship doesn’t end when the shades go up. We’re here for warranty assistance and ongoing support because we’re your neighbors, and we want the outcome to be right. We serve both residential and commercial customers across Sammamish and the broader Eastside.
Where We Install Outdoor Shades & How Motorization Works
We install exterior patio shades on decks, patios, porches, balconies, sunrooms, gazebos, and pergolas. If your outdoor structure has an overhead mounting point, we can work with it. Our consultants can evaluate the space during your in-home visit and walk you through the options that fit your specific setup.
Motorization & Smart Home Integration
Any sun shade or patio shade in our lineup can be motorized for convenience and set to timers, so your shades adjust automatically to the time of day or weather conditions. Raise or lower them via remote control or a smartphone app. For homeowners with smart home systems, motorized shades can be integrated for automated scheduling and hands-free control. If you have a view worth preserving, such as a wooded ridgeline or a glimpse of Lake Sammamish, fabric openness levels can be varied to balance sun protection with sightline clarity.
Materials & Style Options
Our exterior shades are crafted from durable, weather-resistant fabrics with heavy-duty hardware that resists rust and corrosion. Pacific Northwest conditions are part of what we plan for. We offer a wide range of styles, fabrics, and sizes, so whether your space is contemporary or traditional, we’ll find a match that looks as good as it performs.
