Sun, shade, and layout for gazebos in Hobe Sound, FL
In Hobe Sound, the sun is high and harsh most of the year. We size and place gazebos so you get shade when you are actually outside—afternoon on the bar, early evening at the table—not just a shadow at noon.
Morning vs. afternoon use
If you use the space mostly after work, the west face matters more than the east. In Hobe Sound, we align roof overhangs and post locations to match when you are out there, not a generic one-size-fits-all placement.
Pergola-style slatted shade vs. full roof
Open pergolas break sun without blocking breeze; full roofs offer rain protection for kitchens and TV areas. The right tool depends on what you are trying to do under the gazebos—and we can mix both on larger sites.
Plants, screens, and long-term changes
Trees grow; neighbors build. In Hobe Sound, we leave reasonable adjustability in fan locations and overhangs so a changing yard does not make the project obsolete in a few years.
