Your Patio Cover Options

Dark-stained wood patio cover attached to a house, featuring both clear corrugated roofing panels and open slats over a built-in seating area.

We specialize in high-quality, durable materials that deliver lasting shade and protection while complementing your home’s exterior.

Types of Coverage

  • Solid Covers: These provide maximum shade and protection from rain. They are ideal for creating an actual outdoor room feel or for protecting outdoor furniture from all weather.
  • Lattice (Pergola) Covers: Featuring spaced-out rafters, these covers offer partial shade and filtered sunlight. They are excellent for vine growth or delivering a classic, open-air look.
  • Combination Covers: We often design systems that mix solid areas for dining or seating with lattice sections for filtered sun.

Material Selections

  • Aluminum Covers: An excellent low-maintenance solution. Aluminum resists rust and pests. It comes in various colors and styles, often mimicking the look of real wood without maintenance.
  • Wood Covers: We use high-quality, treated lumber like Redwood or Cedar. Wood permits custom shapes, staining, and painting, delivering a classic, natural appearance that integrates with Napa architecture.
  • Insulated Panel Covers: These covers feature a foam core between aluminum panels, providing superior shade and significantly reducing heat transfer compared to standard solid materials.
