What it is, and why it works.
Covered patios are where outdoor living really starts to feel like another room. A true roof keeps off the rain and the high summer sun, lets you leave furniture and a TV outside, and turns a fifty percent patio into a nearly year-round one. In Middle Tennessee, with our sudden storms and long hot afternoons, a roof earns its keep fast.
The design work is in making it look original: matching roof pitch and materials, tying into the existing structure without leaks, adding ceiling finishes and fans, and planning lighting and electrical before anything is closed up. We coordinate framing, roofing and finish carpentry so you have one team and one schedule.
Four things done right.

Covered Patios: common questions
Can you tie the roof into my existing roofline?
Yes. Tying in correctly, with proper flashing and drainage, is a core part of the work.
Will a covered patio make my house darker inside?
It can, slightly. We can add skylights or a gabled design to keep rooms bright.
