About

Raleigh Shade was created to allow homeowners to make the most of and enjoy their backyards.

We offer an array of practical outdoor shade structures and patios that are built well and look amazing.

We use high-quality materials, local suppliers, and our in-house team has over 20 years of experience in design and construction, so we can build custom projects or install pre-fabricated solutions quickly and well.

As a small and niche enterprise, we don’t have the complexity of big companies giving us the the flexibility to create projects as simple or complex as you need them, as well as assuring you that someone will always answer the phone or call your right back.

Adan Ascencio conceived Raleigh Shade from a fascination with modern and practical architecture and a desire to enjoy his backyard- especially in the summer, which is most of the year here in North Carolina.

Adan has years of experience in landscape design and outdoor construction and after owning several businesses and having a successful real estate career he decided to go back to building after moving to Raleigh and noticing how it seems that most patio and outdoor shade companies are cheap but hard to deal with and with questionable quality or excessively expensive. This leaves much to be desired by the majority of the population who just want a nice soundly built patio or shade structure that doesn’t require a monthly payment.

Give us a call if you’d like to chat or if you’d like us to come to your home. We are happy to help you design the perfect outdoor space for you!
