Waterproof Shade ‘N Net or tarp – just buy a dark color model, then there will be shade inside. You can rest in it during the day. Hang a hammock or set up a pair of garden sofas. And now your cozy corner for relaxing in the garden is ready.
Metal version
Most often the gazebo is covered with sheets of corrugated board. But the material gets very hot in the sun. The structure will last for a long time. You can choose any shade for the roof. But the sound of rain will be heard, although some people like it.
Polycarbonate awning
Polycarbonate is an inexpensive option, but choose thick sheets in dark green or blue. The thicker the material, the lower the risk of deformation from hail and heavy rain. Dark colors will protect you from the bright sun in the summer, but over time it may fade.
