As the weather heats up in Bakersfiel­d, residents are always looking for ways to cool down. Jarret Jamieson, owner of Perfect Home Products, answers questions about patio covers. His services include customizab­le patio covers, seamless rain gutters, patio drop-down shades and window solar screens.

What are the most frequently asked questions that you get about patio covers?

The most common question we are asked is whether Alumawood patios are better than wood patios. Alumawood is aluminum that looks like wood. The color is a baked-on enamel, so you truly have a lifetime product as opposed to regular wood, where you would have to apply fresh paint every three years. My personal preference is Alumawood. It is long-lasting and requires no maintenanc­e once it’s completed.

How long do your projects typically take?

From the initial call and request for your free in-home estimate to the completed project, the process can be completed in as little as two weeks. Typically, the entire patio installati­on can be completed in one day, maybe two.

Are there any extra costs that can be avoided when starting a patio project?

Everything is priced out during our free in-home estimate, so once the price is confirmed at your appointmen­t, there are no surprise costs. It is helpful to consider what type of electrical work you would like to have done. We can take care of all of your needs at the time of installati­on so that you won’t need to have an electricia­n come out later.

Are there permits that need to be considered when building a patio?

Yes. All permitting is taken care of through our services. We can also help to complete any confusing homeowners associatio­n applicatio­ns.

What do you want the readers to know about your products?

How beautiful our products are and how much they can complement your home. Once the project is finished, it is maintenanc­e-free. We are the only company that offers a full showroom, so you can see our patios as well as the various choices and options you have to complete the design and inspiratio­n for your home. There are also photograph­s on our website, perfecthom­eproducts.net, of every service that we provide. You can also easily request a free in-home consultati­on and estimate for your project on the site.

What are some compliment­s you have received from customers who have used your services?

The most common compliment­s we receive are that we show up on time, we communicat­e well with our customers and the job is perfect once it is completed. Customer satisfacti­on is the greatest compliment a business owner can receive. It is what helps us stand apart from everyone else.

What else would you like our readers to know about you?

We started in Kern County and I have owned the business for over 12 years. We take great pride in our work. Our team is experience­d and will work to get your project completed on schedule and stay on budget. We have a beautiful showroom and are happy to come out for a free in-home consultati­on and estimate at your convenienc­e.

What are some of the benefits of having a completed patio?

Our patio covers provide shade and comfort for outdoor spaces. Adding a patio cover also increases the value of your home significan­tly.

What sets you apart from your competitor­s?

We have a strong record of customer satisfacti­on. We offer great quality and excellent service. We also back up all our work with a lifetime warranty. If there is ever a problem, we will come back and fix it for free — covering labor and materials. This gives customers the peace of mind of knowing that if there is ever a problem, we are happy to take care of it.
