Hyrum Thomson: Owner

Hyrum Thompson is the heart and hands behind Reno Pergola Company. With years of experience in outdoor construction and a deep-rooted passion for craftsmanship, Hyrum has built his reputation on integrity, hard work, and a genuine commitment to improving the way people live outside. Born and raised in Northern Nevada, he understands the unique challenges of the region’s climate—and he’s made it his mission to design outdoor living solutions that are both stunning and built to last. Under his leadership, the company has grown from a one-man operation to a leading name in pergolas, patio covers, and shade structures across the Reno area.

What sets Hyrum apart isn’t just his expertise—it’s his approach. He believes that every project should feel personal, and every client should feel heard. Whether he’s out on a job site reviewing plans or sitting down with a homeowner to discuss their dream backyard, Hyrum brings a level of care and attention to detail that’s hard to find in today’s fast-paced world. He’s hands-on throughout the process, from the initial design consultation to the final walk-through, ensuring that each build reflects the client’s vision, meets the highest standards of quality, and makes smart use of time and budget.

For Hyrum, this work is about more than just construction—it’s about helping people make the most of their homes and their lives. He takes great pride in seeing a family enjoy their new pergola for a summer barbecue, or a couple relax under a shaded patio on a warm Nevada evening. That’s what drives him to keep raising the bar for quality and service, one backyard at a time. When you work with Reno Pergola Company, you’re not just getting a contractor—you’re getting a local professional who cares deeply about his craft, his customers, and his community.

– Jessica R., Reno, NV “We couldn't be happier with the pergola Reno Pergola Company built for our backyard. Hyrum and his team were incredibly professional from start to finish. They helped us design a structure that matched our home perfectly, stayed on budget, and even finished ahead of schedule. Now we have the perfect outdoor space to host friends and relax in the shade. It completely transformed our yard!”

– Michael T., Sparks, NV “I looked at a few different companies before choosing Reno Pergola Company, and I’m so glad I went with them. The craftsmanship and attention to detail were obvious from day one. Hyrum took the time to explain the materials, the process, and what would work best for our patio. The aluminum pergola they installed looks amazing and has held up great through wind and sun. Definitely recommend!”

– Shevar Verdi, NV “We were looking for something special to add value to our home and give us more usable space outside.
