Patio covers and pergolas, built for the long haul

Black Diamond Paver Stones & Landscape specializes in durable aluminum pergolas designed to enhance outdoor living spaces while offering weather protection. Our freestanding pergolas function as standalone accents above seating areas or BBQ islands, or attach directly to homes to extend living space. Customization options include lattice or closed-top configurations, with available upgrades like fans and electrical outlets.

We create patio covers that turn outdoor areas into relaxation and entertainment venues — covered pergolas, aluminum pergolas, deck covers, pergolas with roofs, gazebos, and aluminum patio covers — all crafted for durability and aesthetic appeal.

Why aluminum, why us

Skilled installation teams ensure a precise and efficient setup of your patio cover or pergola. We emphasize high-quality materials and an extended lifespan with minimal maintenance — wood may look the part on day one, but aluminum holds up to weather, sun, and termites in a way wood cannot.

Black Diamond serves multiple California regions including the South Bay, San Jose, North Bay, East Bay, coastal areas, Sacramento, and Los Angeles County, plus Scottsdale, Arizona. Operating since 2004, we've been a top-rated landscape company specializing in paver stones, custom backyard design, and complete outdoor transformations. Our patio covers are backed by a 10-year installation warranty and a 10-year Duralum manufacturer warranty.

Frequently asked

Patio Covers & Pergolas — questions, answered.

The questions our designers hear most often on a free design consultation. Have one not on the list? Call us at (800) 942-1955.

  • Why should I use Black Diamond?
    Expert project installation with a FREE Basic Digital Design. Best prices for highest-quality work. 10-year warranty on patio-cover installation and 10-year Duralum manufacturer warranty. A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Fully licensed (CA #841042) and insured. Numerous certifications, awards, and thousands of 5-star reviews.
  • What is the difference between a pergola and a patio cover?
    While similar, a pergola and a patio cover differ in installation and design. A pergola is a freestanding structure that typically has an open roof — slats or lattice — that allows for some natural light and airflow, often installed above a BBQ island or full outdoor kitchen. A patio cover is typically attached to a house and provides a secondary solid roof, offering more protection from the elements. A patio cover is more commonly used as a year-round entertainment area.
  • Does a pergola add value to the property?
    An aluminum pergola or patio cover increases a home's value through increased durability, low maintenance, and a build-to-last finish — which means a new homeowner doesn't have to spend extra funds upgrading or maintaining a wood structure.
  • What material is best for a pergola?
    Aluminum is best over wood. Wood is more prone to weather damage and natural threats like termites — which makes it difficult to insure long term. Aluminum pergolas are weather- and nature-proof, both durable and long-lasting. Black Diamond offers a 10-year installation warranty and a 10-year Duralum manufacturer warranty.
  • What is the average cost to design a pergola?
    Unlike other pergola contractors, Black Diamond helps you design your pergola using our Free Basic Digital Design. This lets you see every element of your pergola or patio cover and how it fits into your yard's aesthetic, and makes it easy to modify or change anything you want before anything gets installed.
  • Can I add fans, lights, or electrical outlets?
    Yes. We design pergolas and patio covers with optional fans, recessed lighting, ceiling outlets, and switched circuits — all installed during the build so there's no retro-fit and no second contractor.
