Trusted Louvered Pergola in McLean, VA

A louvered pergola gives you something a fixed roof or open pergola cannot: full control over your outdoor space in every season. Open the louvers on a clear morning, close them when the afternoon sun gets intense, or adjust them mid-dinner when a light rain moves in. For homeowners in McLean, VA who want a backyard structure that works year-round without the all-or-nothing trade-off of a solid roof or an open frame, a louvered pergola is the most versatile option available. Valer Deck & Patio designs and installs custom louvered pergolas across McLean, VA, working with Struxure and Azenco — two of the top manufacturers in the louvered pergola industry.

Louvered Pergola Installation

Custom Pergola Design

No two McLean, VA properties are the same, and no two louvered pergola builds should be either. Valer Deck & Patio works through a personalized design process with each homeowner, accounting for the yard’s dimensions, the home’s exterior style, how the space will be used, and the materials and finishes that will perform best long-term. Beyond louvered systems, the team also builds classic wood pergolas, composite pergolas, PVC, fiberglass, and metal pergola options for homeowners whose project calls for a fixed-roof or open-frame design.

I couldn’t be happier with the two-story deck created by the team at Valer Deck and Patio. The attention to detail is incredible. The joints are tight, the boards are perfectly leveled, and the finish is flawless. You can tell they take real pride in their work.

Dan and his team did several projects for me over the last several years: a new roof; installed gable vents; painting, staining our large deck, and repairing exterior wood-work.

Dan and his team is highly skilled, and he met with me numerous times to ensure that I was satisfied with the work being performed. Because of his excellent work performance, I called on him to do additional work.

I could not have asked for a better contractor to support and complete our home repair requirements. For each project, Dan was professional, he completed each accurately and on time, and his prices were fair.

In short, Dan is our "go-to" contractor for home repair and renovations.

I needed my old wooden deck renovated. Valer was building my next door neighbor’s deck, and Dan came over and gave me a great estimate for the work. His team started working on it on a Wednesday, and they had the deck ready for use by Saturday. There were some finishing touches which the completed before lunchtime on Monday. My deck is absolutely beautiful and will last for as long as I need it. I highly recommend Valer Deck and Patio.

It’s rare to find a contractor you can fully trust, and this team is exactly that. We would hire them again without hesitation and highly recommend them. From start to finish, they were professional, patient, and transparent—showing up on time, staying on schedule, and delivering excellent quality work. The value was unmatched, billing was seamless and easy to track, and even our neighbors commented on how great the crews were. Dan, Jessica, and the entire team were always available and guided us every step of the way.

Valer Deck and Patio was fantastic to work with. They worked through the snow and cold to keep as on schedule as possible, handled a tricky permitting process, and were very responsive and communicative the whole time. They also accommodated a last‑minute change to our deck’s post style without any issues. The finished deck looks great, and we’d happily hire them again and recommend them to others!

Working with Dan and his crew for our patio project has been a dream! We are so happy with all the hard work. We ran into a few obstacles during the project but Dan and his team were very nibble, communicated in real time and we're able to finish on time!! We highly recommend!!

Dan, Jessica and their team were excellent. The deck remodel was professional every step of the way. We evaluated five different proposals and theirs was the best. Our one concern was lack of a long history with decks, but they addressed that concern and delivered. It was also helpful that they posted photos of ongoing progress for our benefit as we were out of the area. We think it was also beneficial that the firm’s ownership was personally involved every step of the way.

We recently hired Valer Builders to completely transform our outdoor spaces, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They replaced a retaining wall, removed and rebuilt our deck, and added a beautiful concrete patio in the backyard. On top of that, they gave our front porch a major upgrade—replacing the fascia on six columns, lowering the ceiling, and installing new lighting that looks fantastic.

From start to finish, the Valer team was friendly, professional, and easy to work with. Their communication was excellent, and the quality of their work really shows. Best of all, the project stayed on budget with no surprise costs, which gave us peace of mind throughout the process.

There was a delay on the porch remodel due to an issue with the supplier/manufacturer that was outside of Valer’s control. While it pushed the timeline back by months, Dan and his team handled it with professionalism and patience. They kept us updated, were always responsive, and worked diligently to get everything resolved the right way.

We’re thrilled with how everything turned out and would absolutely recommend Valer Builders to anyone looking for a contractor that delivers great work, honest pricing, and a team you actually enjoy having around your home.

We were first introduced to Dan Stendeback from Valer Builders when researching bids for repairing/replacing our front porch. After our initial meeting, we knew Dan was the best fit for our project as he displayed a high level of knowledge and professionalism. He was extremely quick in communicating with us regarding materials and costs for the job. Dan offered advice and recommendations throughout the initial planning stages, and always took the time to answer all our questions. Once the project began, his team was punctual and worked through some harsh weather conditions. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are first rate. Our stunningly rebuilt porch has transformed our house in countless ways and completely exceeded our expectations. We are already researching our next project and will be reaching out to Dan in the near future. We highly recommend Dan and his team at Valer.

We hired Valer Deck and Patio to install an EZE- Breeze enclosure on our back patio. The team worked tirelessly until the project was completed and we are very pleased to have a nice and relaxing area to hang out, without the bugs. From estimate to final completion, we were very impressed with the level of communication from the President of Valer, Dan. Smooth process, highly recommend the EZE-Breeze product and the install team. Looking forward to having them do our outdoor patio space!!

Dan and the team busted their ass for us and will always go the extra mile for their clients. The construction crew did an amazing job of quickly and carefully leveling off our deck. Would recommend!

Highly recommend Valer Builders. We recently redid our sun room and deck because it was not up to code. The original contractor could not finish the job, and Valer Builders stepped in and finished the project at a reasonable price. We honestly expected a complete redo, but Valer Builders was able to salvage most of the work and saved us a lot of money. Thank you Dan!

Dan and his crew completed a 400 ft.² deck for me. They did an outstanding job on the deck itself, but what really mattered to me was the communication about what iwas going on.The boatload of pictures of the progress was a plus.I would highly suggest Valer deck & patio. They are very professional and great to work with. The customer service from Dan and the crew was great. I have included a picture To show you what a wonderful job that he did. I would definitely recommend him.

During a weekend storm, one of our fence panels came down. Dan was very responsive and was able to get to our house and put the panel back up within 48 hours as well as provide a quote for additional work. I appreciate that he’s also been very transparent in recommending various levels of scope based on our situation as opposed to simply recommending a wholesale replacement. Hoping to use Valer again soon to replace a portion of our fence and make some deck repairs!

I absolutely love working with Dan. He is a great craftsman with tremendous vision. The projects that he has done belong in a magazine and should be the template on how to demonstrate fine craftsmanship.

If you would like a quality outdoor living space for your home, don't hesitate to give Dan and his team a call.

Dan and his team did an amazing job installing an exterior back door with a small landing and steps down to our back patio. Like most things in life, there were a few bumps in the road; some material delivery delays and then a weather delay, but Dan was very communicative every step of the way, something we really appreciated. They took care of everything from scheduling the survey that needed done in order to get the building permit, to the removal of every bit of debris possible and the quality of their work and the materials they use is top of the line. I would recommend them to anyone and would absolutely use them again!

“We had 3 estimates that fluctuated in cost so it was really hard to determine what we were paying for! Not only to Dan come in and give a very honest assessment of the condition of our deck, he also suggested idea ideas that would help boost the functionality of our outdoor space, and an itemize proposal so we knew what things cost and could make adjustments. The job site was kept clean, the crews were professional and very kind. Any loose ends we had Dan addressed immediately. We cannot express how happy we are with choosing Dan to help us with this project! Highly recommend!”

Valer Builders created a beautiful, custom door for our back bricked-in patio area. We had a design in mind, including a keypad lock, which required a thicker door to accommodate that request.

Dan exceeded our expectations through his communications, including working with us on a durable outdoor keypad/lock. He visited on the last day to review the quality of work his amazing team, Jody and Nick, had completed.

Overall, we are incredibly pleased with the results and would recommend Valer Builders to others.
