RESIDENTIAL OUTDOOR LIVING · cAPITAL REGION, NY

Your outdoor space, finally the gathering place you built it to be.

Motorized pergolas, retractable screens, screen rooms, and radiant heating — designed for how Capital Region homeowners actually live, built to handle Upstate New York's real seasons.

You invested in this home. The outdoor space was supposed to be the gathering place.

Blackflies in May. Mosquitoes in July. Nor'easters that show up in April. Three months of weather that drives you inside and four "shoulder season" months you can barely use.

You built this home — or bought it — with a backyard in mind. The space was supposed to be where the family collects after school, where the dinners go late, where summer actually happens. Somewhere along the way, the weather won.

That's not a weather problem. It's a design problem — and it's exactly what we built Decadent Outdoors to solve.

What your outdoor space becomes when the design is right.

Friday · July · 7pm

The evening that stays outside.

Screens deployed in seconds. The mosquitoes are gone. Dinner on the patio, wine poured, nobody checking the weather. The evening that used to get cut short by bugs just became your new default.

Saturday · October · 2pm

The October afternoon reclaimed.

Motorized louvers angled for sun. A light rain comes through — and nobody moves inside. Radiant heat overhead. The foliage season you used to watch through a window, finally happening in it.

Sunday · April · 8am

Coffee outside before Memorial Day.

The shoulder season you always gave up. Heaters on, louvers tilted against the April chill. Two extra months of mornings you didn't have before.

Any Summer Evening

The gathering place you built the house for.

Guests who don't want to leave. The dinner that turned into the night. A space that finally functions the way you always imagined — before the weather always won.

Stop giving up your outdoor season.

We come to you, assess your space, and give you a fixed price — before you decide anything.

HOMEOWNER FAQ

Questions homeowners ask us first.

What does a motorized pergola cost in the Capital Region?

Project costs depend on the system, size, materials, and site complexity. Motorized StruXure pergolas, three-season rooms, and full outdoor living builds each fall into different investment ranges. Because every property is different, we provide a fixed, transparent price after a free in-home consultation — not a generic estimate over the phone. The consultation is free and there's zero obligation.

What is a motorized louvered pergola and why is StruXure the leading brand?

A motorized louvered pergola is a covered outdoor structure with rotating roof slats — called louvers — that you control by app or remote. Open them for sun, close them for full rain protection, angle them for shade and airflow. StruXure leads the category because of smart-home integration, engineered durability (rated for snow load and 40+ mph wind), and the broadest configuration range. Decadent Outdoors is the exclusive StruXure dealer for Upstate New York's Capital Region.

How long does an outdoor living project take from consultation to completion?

+ The consultation is free and happens at your home — typically 60–90 minutes. From there, we prepare your design proposal and quote, which typically takes 1–2 weeks. Once you're ready to proceed, lead times on materials vary by product and season. Installation itself takes 1–5 days of on-site work for most residential projects. We'll give you a specific timeline in your proposal before you commit to anything.

Does a pergola or screen room require a permit in New York State?

Permit requirements vary by municipality in New York State. Some outdoor structures require permits; others don't, depending on size, attachment method, and your local zoning code. We handle this in the consultation — we know the permit landscape across our service area and will tell you exactly what's required for your specific project and municipality before any work begins.

What's the difference between a screen room and a three-season room?

A screen room is a fully enclosed space with insect-barrier screening on the walls — providing fresh air and bug protection without climate control. A three-season room adds weatherproofing and typically heating, extending the usable season significantly — from roughly April through November in Upstate New York's climate. We'll walk you through both options in the consultation based on how you plan to use the space.

When is the best time to start an outdoor living project in Upstate New York?

The honest answer: now, regardless of season. Winter and early spring are our busiest design and quote months because installation slots fill quickly once the ground thaws. Summer projects can still be scheduled, and many motorized pergola and retractable screen installations happen September through November — giving homeowners ready spaces for the following spring. Starting the conversation now is always better than calling in April.

Your outdoor space shouldn't sit empty half the day.
