Kozyard 10x12 aluminum hardtop gazebo installation

About this project

This 10x12 Kozyard hardtop gazebo was installed on an existing paver patio next to the backyard pool in Stockton, CA. The black aluminum frame and solid hardtop roof were the right call for a poolside spot - aluminum doesn't rust or corrode from pool chemicals the way wood or steel can, and the hardtop gives full shade and rain coverage instead of a mesh or fabric canopy that needs replacing every few years. Since the patio base was already there, the job was straight assembly and leveling - no concrete work or footings required. End result: a permanent, low-maintenance shade structure right at the pool's edge.
