Shade, Shelter & Outdoor Comfort
Covered Decks & Patio Roofs in California
Add Comfort Without Losing Sunlight
Custom Roofs for Every Deck & Patio
From open-beam cedar structures to fully shingled patio covers, we build roof systems that enhance the look and function of your outdoor space. Our covered deck designs range from shade-only pergolas to waterproof roofs with recessed lighting, ceiling fans, or skylights. We customize the slope, material, and footprint to suit your space, and always ensure proper drainage, structural support, and code compliance for California weather conditions.
Why Add a Roof Over Your Deck?
More Use. Less Sun & Rain Exposure.
A covered deck or patio creates usable space no matter the forecast. You’ll protect your decking, furniture, and guests from harsh UV rays and light rain—without fully enclosing your outdoor area. It’s one of the most effective upgrades for increasing both comfort and home value.
Blocks sun while maintaining airflow
Helps protect your deck materials
Adds structure for lighting or fans
We Build It Right—From Roofline to Posts
Fully Integrated, Structurally Sound Designs
We build our patio roofs to last—framed with pressure-treated posts, lag-bolted connections, and engineered beams. We anchor posts to footings or existing slabs and tie into your home’s exterior without compromising siding or roofing integrity. For standalone decks, we build free-standing roof structures that complement the deck’s proportions and style. Every roof is designed to handle local wind and snow loads where required.
Natural Wood or Low-Maintenance Composites
Material Options for Covered Decks
Choose from classic wood structures that can be stained to match your home, or opt for composite and aluminum options that resist weathering and require almost no upkeep. Roofing finishes can include open rafters, tongue-and-groove panels, shingles, metal panels, or polycarbonate for filtered sunlight. We’ll help you find the right balance of shade, airflow, and design.
Boost Property Value with Every Board
Covered Outdoor Spaces Buyers Love
A covered deck or patio adds curb appeal and increases your home’s resale potential. Buyers appreciate the flexibility of an outdoor space that’s ready for dining, entertaining, or relaxing—without worrying about the weather. Our clients see immediate returns in function and long-term value thanks to low-maintenance materials and timeless design.
