Kyle Kelly
Chief Executive Officer & Owner
Kyle launched Southern California Patios in 2005, just six years before he started the do-it-yourself version of the business in 2011, known as Patio Kits Direct. During their respective lifetimes, both companies have successfully produced 5-to-10 times the average output of other companies in the patio cover industry. Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, Kyle formed a network of top competitors to leverage resources and reduce overhead. This helped to alleviate supply chain restraints and created installation efficiencies never before seen in the industry. Kyle’s watchword is innovation, which explains why he’s widely perceived as an industry leader. Kyle is also the proud dad of three active children.
When he’s not redefining the patio cover playing field, you’ll find him off watching daughters Ireland and Kennedy competing in hip-hop or son Nixon tearing it up on the youth Basketball Court.
