Shade That Stays

Full Shade Over Your Patio, Rain or Shine

Houston weather takes the back patio away from you twice over. The sun cooks the slab from spring to fall, then an afternoon storm rolls in and moves everybody indoors. Most of the year that space sits unused.

A patio cover is a solid roof built out over the patio. It can tie into the back of the house or stand on its own in the yard. You get shade all day, cover when it rains, and a real outdoor room instead of a bare slab.

  • Yours can tie into the back of the house or stand on its own out in the yard
  • Columns are sized and styled so the cover suits the house rather than fighting it
  • An insulated roof is an option, and it keeps both the heat and the rain noise down
  • Ceiling fans, lighting and gas lines are far easier to run while the roof is going up

Patio Cover Options

Pick the Cover That Fits Your Patio

Every cover is built to order and matched to your slab, your roofline, and how much sun the back of your house takes.

Solid roof patio cover built over a back patio at a Houston home

Attached Covers

The roof ties into the back of the house and reads as part of the home. This is the most common build and the easiest one to step out into.

Freestanding timber pavilion with bar seating and a stone fireplace in a back yard

Freestanding Covers

Set the structure out in the yard over a seating area, a grill or a spa. Good when the roofline of the house doesn’t leave room to tie in.

Pergola Style Covers

Want light to come through? An open top keeps the space bright and airy. Pick it when you’d rather have the light and air than stay dry in the rain.

How It Works

How the Job Actually Runs

Three steps, one price agreed up front, and one person to call if you have a question.

1

Free On Site Inspection

We come out, measure the patio, and look at the roofline and the drainage. We price it before we go, and the visit itself is free.

2

Design and Materials

Our patio consultants plan the cover around your home. You pick the style, the materials, the column look and the roof, to suit your budget.

3

Build and Walkthrough

Our crew sets the columns, frames and finishes the roof, and cleans up the site. Then we go over the finished cover with you, top to bottom, before we call it done.

Your project manager gives you the schedule once the design is approved and the materials arrive.

What It Costs

What Affects Your Patio Cover Price

We price covers at the house. Size, material and how the roof ties into the house decide most of the price.

Patio Size

Covering one seating area costs less than roofing the whole slab. Square footage drives most of the total.

Roof and Materials

A solid roof, an insulated roof and an open top all price differently. Your consultant lays the options out side by side.

Attached or Freestanding

Tying the roof into the house is different work than setting a standalone structure out in the yard.

Fans, Lights and Gas

Ceiling fans, lighting, custom columns and a gas line for a grill each add to the base price.

Want the real number for your patio? The visit costs nothing.

Common Questions

What People Ask About Patio Covers

What exactly is a patio cover?

It’s a roof built out over your patio. It can attach to the house or stand on its own, and it comes in a range of materials, styles and sizes. We size and shape it around the slab you already have.

How is it different from a pergola?

A patio cover has a solid roof, so it blocks the sun and keeps the rain off. A pergola top is open, so light and weather come through. Pick the cover if you want the patio usable in a downpour.

Can you add ceiling fans and lighting?

Yes. Fans keep the heat moving and lighting makes the space work after dark. It’s far easier to run the wiring while the roof is going up than to add it later.

Does a patio cover add value?

It adds usable living space, and in Houston that’s a real selling point. It also keeps the sun and rain off your patio furniture, so the furniture lasts longer. How much it adds comes down to how well it’s built.

Can it go over my existing patio?

That’s how most of ours are built. We check the slab, the drainage and the footing options during the in home visit, then design the cover around what is already there.

How do I pick the right one?

Think about your budget, the size of the patio, the weather it has to stand up to, and the style of your house. Our consultants walk you through all four at the free visit.

Do I need a permit for a patio cover?

Usually yes, and especially when the cover ties into your existing roof. The rules change from city to city, so we check the ones for your address and pull the permit ourselves. That’s part of every job.

FAQ

More Patio Cover Answers

Can a patio cover tie into my existing roofline?

Usually yes, and that’s the look most homeowners want. We study the roofline, the pitch and where the water runs during the in home visit, then design the cover so it reads as part of the house.

What does an insulated roof actually do?

It keeps heat from pouring off the roof onto the people under it, so the space stays more comfortable in July. It also knocks down the drumming sound when the rain comes in hard.

Can you run a gas line for an outdoor kitchen?

Yes. Gas lines, extra outlets and other utilities are easiest to run while the cover is being built. Tell us at the consultation what you plan to put underneath and we’ll plan for it.

Do I need HOA approval to add one?

Plenty of Houston area neighborhoods ask for sign off before you add a structure out back. Start that early. We’ll hand you the drawings and the details your HOA wants to see.
