Authorized PERGOLUX partner for Chicago, Evanston, Skokie, Wilmette, Northbrook, and more.
A deck in this city is only as useful as the roof over it. PERGOLUX is the aluminum louvered pergola we install when a homeowner wants the afternoon back, the table dry in a storm, and a structure that does not ask to be stained every spring.
Chicago Luxury Decks is a PERGOLUX partner. We design it onto your existing deck, a new build, a garage-top, or a restaurant patio. We handle the permit. Our crew sets it. You get one number and one walkthrough.
Most of the year here is not July. Lake wind, freeze-thaw, a week of heavy snow, then a 90-degree afternoon that empties the yard by two o’clock. PERGOLUX is powder-coated 6063-T5 aluminum with a louvered roof that opens for sun and closes into a drained plane. RainLUX sends water into hidden gutters and down the posts. We check the deck frame, the footing, the wind exposure, and what the village will permit. Then we tell you if the structure can carry it.
Existing vs new deck: On a new deck, plan posts, load path, and electrical before the first board. On an existing deck, inspect first. If it cannot take snow and wind, reinforce or set the pergola on its own footings. Say that before anyone orders aluminum.
Usually yes, as long as the existing frame is sound and can carry the load. Louvered roofs and fireplaces in particular need a structure that was built for the weight, so we look first and tell you honestly.
Often yes, especially anything with a roof structure, gas or electrical. We handle the permit and the inspection. You do not deal with the city.
Screens for July and August, a fire feature for spring and fall, lighting for after dark. If you can only do one, most people get the biggest change from screens.
Yes. The frames are structural aluminum engineered for winter snow load and high wind. The louvers close into a sealed position and the gutter system carries meltwater away.
Yes, and it is often the smart approach. Tell us at the design visit which features you want eventually. We run the wiring and plan the structure for them now, so adding them later does not mean tearing anything up.
It varies enormously between a lighting package and a full louvered roof with screens and a kitchen. We give you exact pricing per feature after the design visit, so you can decide what goes in now and what waits.
No. Louvered roofs, screens and lighting all run from a simple remote or a phone app, and they integrate with most home automation systems. We set it all up and walk you through it before we leave.
Your request is in. We will call you within one business day to set up your free design visit.
