In summer, when the sun heats balconies and terraces as well as other places for relaxation, we think more often about roofing such spaces.

Many solutions available on the market can be used to shade a balcony or terrace from the sun. Below we present some ideas for a summer corner with a roof.

The first and easiest solution is to purchase a garden sail. There are many companies involved in the production of sails on the market. They come in many sizes and shapes - from triangles to rectangles and squares. In many of them you can also order a product to size, after selecting the appropriate fabric.

Fabrics mainly come in two types: made of PVC-based mesh or waterproof made of polyester. The materials reflect the sun's rays and shade any surface. Made of polyester mesh, they let in rainwater and air. On the other hand, those made of waterproof polyester retain water and "catch the wind", just like the sails on a yacht - you have to remember to remove such material in the event of bad weather or make rails so that you can quickly slide it off if necessary.

Another solution is to cover the roof with a bamboo thatch. This solution is very ecological and durable. Bamboo stakes provide an exotic atmosphere and delicacy in the space.

They combine perfectly with concrete slabs and modern street furniture.

Just add a few stylish armchairs with cushions or woven chairs, accessories made of natural materials such as linen or cotton, candles in various sizes or lanterns and it's ready! An intimate leisure space is something that every busy person needs now. Importantly, the execution of such a roof is not very laborious and does not require a large financial outlay.

An interesting and very natural solution is to plant the pergola with climbing plants. They can be all kinds of vines or ornamental plants that delight with the beauty of their flowers.

This type of roofing fits perfectly into the surroundings, sometimes it blends with it, creating a balanced whole. The only problem with this type of canopy is that it shields from the sun when it has fully developed its leaves. However, for many, this element constitutes the charm of this type of roofing.

One possibility is also to make a green roof using plants with a shallow root system. In this case, the structure must be carefully designed, because plants need the right amount of soil and irrigation - essential for the good condition of the plants throughout the growing season.

The green roof provides insulation, so it protects against overheating in the warm months and against heat loss in winter. It is perfect for covering a house with such a roof. It also reduces the amount of rainwater that goes to the sewage system by up to 50% and perfectly suppresses noise.
