Project Details
A patio cover that matches the house
A bare slab behind a two story home gets hot and gets little use. This cover gives the family a finished space under the second story windows. The brick bases match the home, so the patio looks like part of the house.
What we built
Here is what stands in the yard on this job.
- A covered patio about 14 by 38 feet in Houston, TX
- A wood framed cover, with a shingled roof to match the home as in our standard build
- Columns wrapped in James Hardie on brick bases matched to the home
- A finished ceiling with three ceiling fans
- Electrical work for the fans
How it was built
Every Patio Cover Katy patio cover is built on site by our own crew, with no subcontractors. This is how we frame them.
- Wood framed, with most columns 6 by 6, beams 2 by 12, and rafters 2 by 10 and 2 by 8.
- Galvanized bolts and hardware throughout.
- Footers at least 2 feet deep and 2 feet across, sized for the job.
- Electrical, gutters, permit fees and HOA fees included in the price.
A patio cover usually takes about 2 weeks to build, and that is our usual build time, not the time for this job. Book a free estimate and we will walk your yard with you.

The patio from the yard
The cover runs along the back of the home, tied in below the second story windows. White columns sit on brick bases that match the house.
Where the roof meets the house
This close view shows the roof edge and fascia at the home. A ceiling fan hangs under the cover, with the siding and chimney above.
Want something like this?
Patio Cover Katy designs and builds custom patio covers and roof extensions. Patio covers start at $14,000, and the price depends on the details you choose. Electrical, gutters, permit fees and HOA fees are included.
A vinyl or kit cover sells for about $2,000 to $3,000. We do not sell or install those, so if that is your budget, we are not the right company.
