Extend Your Outdoor Living Season

You invested in a beautiful deck or patio, but how often do you actually use it? Between the summer sun beating down and the afternoon thunderstorms that roll through the Catawba Valley, most homeowners find their outdoor space sitting empty more days than not. A patio cover changes that equation completely.

Many homeowners try retractable awnings or pop-up canopies as a quick fix, only to watch them sag under heavy rain or blow apart in a strong wind. These temporary solutions don't hold up to North Carolina storms and end up costing you money every few years when they need replacing.

A permanent patio cover or deck roof is a structural addition to your home, and it needs to be built to withstand the same wind and snow loads as any other roof in Catawba County. We engineer our covers with proper pitch for drainage, adequate post sizing for the span, and roofing materials that match your existing home — not a tacked-on afterthought that looks like it doesn't belong.

How It Works

Our Process

1

Design Consultation

We visit your home to evaluate your existing patio or deck, discuss your goals for the covered space, and determine the best attachment method and roof style. We'll consider factors like sun angle, prevailing wind direction, and how the cover will integrate with your home's roofline.

2

Engineering & Permits

Your patio cover is designed with proper structural calculations for wind uplift and load bearing. We prepare all documentation for the building permit and handle submissions to the local building department so you don't have to deal with the paperwork.

3

Build & Roofing

We install structural posts, beams, and rafters, then apply roofing materials that match or complement your home's existing roof. Gutters and downspouts are included to direct water away from your foundation and outdoor living area.

4

Finishing & Inspection

We complete all trim work, ceiling finishes (tongue-and-groove, beadboard, or vinyl soffit), and any electrical rough-ins for future fans or lighting. After the final inspection, we walk through everything with you.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

We build gable roof covers, shed-style (single-slope) covers, and hip roof covers. The right style depends on your home's architecture and the area you want to cover. Shed-style covers are the most cost-effective, while gable covers offer a more dramatic look and better ventilation. We'll recommend the style that best complements your home during your consultation.
In most cases, yes. We evaluate your existing deck's structural capacity to determine if it can support cover posts or if we need to install independent footings alongside the deck. Many decks can accommodate a cover with minimal modifications. We'll let you know exactly what's needed after inspecting your deck.
Not necessarily. We can incorporate skylights, translucent panels, or open soffit sections to maintain natural light. We also carefully plan the cover's depth and height to balance shade with light. Most homeowners find that a well-designed cover actually makes adjacent rooms more comfortable by reducing glare and heat gain.
Patio cover costs depend on the size, style, and finish materials. A basic 12x16 shed-style cover typically ranges from $8,000 to $15,000. Gable-style covers with finished ceilings, electrical, and premium materials run $15,000 to $30,000 or more. We provide detailed estimates with no hidden fees.
Yes, and we strongly recommend planning for electrical during construction. We rough in wiring for ceiling fans, recessed lights, or outlet boxes so everything is clean and code-compliant. Adding electrical after the ceiling is finished is more expensive and disruptive, so it's best to plan ahead.
Yes. In Catawba County and surrounding municipalities, any permanent structure attached to your home requires a building permit and inspections. We handle the entire permit process as part of your project — it's included in our scope of work, not an add-on.
