Same money. Opposite outcome.

Two builds. Same product.
One falls apart.

Most outdoor builds don't fail because of the product. They fail because of how — and by whom — they're installed. Same rolling roof, two crews: one is still flawless after five winters, the other is warped by spring.

The fast, cheap route

Bought off a shelf, rushed onto weak footings. Looks great in the listing photos — warped, leaking and faded within two seasons. Then you pay to do it again.

The Prime Pergola way

World-class systems, set by a 20-year builder — correct footings, structural anchoring, permits filed, finished clean. Still looks brand-new long after the cheap one's been torn out.

A backyard pool, enclosed and climate-ready — open to the sky on a clear day, sealed tight when the weather turns.

What actually matters

The same dollar buys very different outcomes. Here's how a Prime Pergola build compares to the options most owners weigh first.

Meet the builder

I've renovated half this city. This is what I'd build for my own home.

I'm Shafir Gilboa, founder of Adir Contractor Group and a NYC DOB-licensed general contractor with more than 20 years on the tools. For years I watched owners spend serious money on outdoor builds — and watched those same builds fail.

It took me a while to name it: it was never the product, it was the install. Wrong footings, lazy anchoring, corners you can't see until the first hard winter pries them open.

So Prime Pergola does the opposite. We bring in the best systems made anywhere in the world and install them like someone who has to stand behind every job — because I do. That's the whole reason this company exists.

One system for every kind of space

The best outdoor systems made anywhere — engineered to your exact space and installed to last.

01

Rolling Roof System

The best of both worlds — indoor comfort and outdoor freedom. A motorized louvered roof that opens to the sun and seals tight against rain.

02

Guillotine Glass

Protect your outdoor furniture and raise your home's value with a custom-built guillotine glass enclosure that lifts away in a moment.

03

Sliding & Folding Glass

Transform your patio or deck into a four-season oasis with durable, beautiful sliding and folding glass walls that open wide or seal warm.

04

Motorized Zip Screens

Added privacy, protection from the elements, and a stylish way to define your space — custom zip screens at the touch of a button.

05

Integrated Lighting

Warm LED lighting built right into the frame — so the space stays just as inviting long after the sun goes down.

Custom-built for your space

Home, rooftop, pool or restaurant — we engineer the right system for how you'll actually use it.

From dead space to the best room you own

Four steps. Zero guesswork.

You don't chase contractors, pull permits or manage a thing. Answer a few quick questions — we take it from there.

02

Planning

We measure and read the space — sun, wind, code — then design the exact system around it with a straight price.

03

Construction

Footings, anchoring and finish done properly. Permits filed, premium systems built to last, work around your hours.

04

Installation

Set, sealed and tested — site left cleaner than we found it. You walk out into a space that earns its keep every season.

Worth every dollar

Shafir treated our rooftop like it was his own home. The work is clean, it's held up perfectly, and his crew handled every permit. We use it year-round now.

Our backyard went from never-used to the place everyone wants to be. The quality is something you can feel the moment you walk under it.

Before you ask

The honest answers

No. We work around your hours, move fast, and leave the place cleaner than we found it. You keep running while we handle the rest.

Every time. Permits, planning and code are handled start to finish — it's part of doing it the right way, so it actually lasts.

We bring in the best premium systems made and install them like a 20-year builder — proper footings, anchoring and finish. The cheap version looks fine in photos and tired by next season. Ours is still brand new five winters later.

It's a real investment — the kind you make once because it's done right and lasts for years. On a quick call, Shafir looks at your space and tells you straight what it takes. If the cheap one costs you twice in five years, which was actually expensive?

Yes — restaurants, cafés, bars, hospitality and high-end homes across New York. Each space gets the right system for how it's actually used.

No pressure. Just a straight answer.

Make it the spot people come for — not the one they walk past

Answer a few quick questions about your space. Shafir will tell you straight what's possible, what it takes, and what it costs.
