Cabanas & Poolside Structures

Poolside Structures Designed for Comfort, Privacy, and Durability

Handy Home Repairs designs and builds cabanas and poolside structures for homeowners in Burlington, Ontario and surrounding areas. These structures are designed to provide shade, storage, privacy, and architectural definition around pools and outdoor living areas.

​

Our cabanas and poolside structures are planned as permanent, well-integrated features that complement the home, landscape, and how the outdoor space is used throughout the season.

What Are Cabanas and Poolside Structures

Cabanas and poolside structures are freestanding or semi-attached outdoor buildings typically located near pools or patios. They can serve a variety of functions including shaded seating, changing areas, equipment storage, or sheltered outdoor rooms.

​

Unlike temporary shelters, these structures are built with proper foundations, structural framing, and durable materials suited to long-term outdoor use.

Design Services for Cabanas & Poolside Structures

Each project begins with thoughtful design to ensure the structure fits the site, pool layout, and intended use while maintaining appropriate scale and visual balance.

  • Layout and placement planning near pools and patios

  • Integration with existing landscaping and hardscaping

  • Space planning for storage, seating, or enclosed areas

  • Material and finish selection

  • Privacy, shade, and ventilation considerations

The design process ensures the cabana or poolside structure feels intentional and functional rather than oversized or purely decorative.

Construction of Cabanas & Poolside Structures

We construct cabanas and poolside structures using proven building methods and materials suited to Ontario’s climate and outdoor conditions.

  • Proper footings and foundations

  • Structural wood framing and roof systems

  • Enclosed or semi-enclosed wall assemblies

  • Doors, screens, and architectural detailing

  • Repairs, upgrades, and rebuilds of existing poolside structures

Careful attention to structure and detailing ensures durability, stability, and long-term performance.

Cabanas and poolside structures are commonly built on concrete slabs or integrated with surrounding hardscape features.
