Patio Cover Cost Guide
What a patio cover costs in Katy
Patio cover quotes can look a world apart. One price buys a kit set on your slab. Another buys a roof extension built for your house. Our custom patio covers in Katy start at $14,000, and that number covers the whole job. Here is what it buys, what moves it up, and how to compare it with other quotes.
What is in the price
Everything below comes with your patio cover. Nothing on this list is an extra.
| Item | What you get |
|---|---|
| Frame | Wood framed. Most columns are 6 by 6, beams are 2 by 12, and rafters are 2 by 10 and 2 by 8 |
| Wrap | James Hardie fiber cement or stone |
| Roof | Shingles to match your home |
| Hardware and footers | Galvanized bolts and hardware, on footers at least 2 feet deep and 2 feet across, sized for the job |
| Electrical and outlets | Electrical for fans and lights, plus outlets |
| Gutters | Included |
| Permits and HOA | Permit fees and HOA fees, with the HOA drawings and submission done for you |
| Crew and warranty | Our own crew, no subcontractors, and a lifetime workmanship warranty |
What moves the price up
Your price depends on the details, so we do not quote by the square foot. Size is one detail, and a small patio can carry a lot of them. These are the ones that change a price the most.
- Size. A bigger cover takes more framing, more shingles and more wrap.
- How the roof meets the house. Tying the new roof into your roofline takes more work on some homes than others.
- The wrap. Stone and James Hardie fiber cement are priced differently, so your choice shows up in the number.
- Slab work. If the cover needs to reach past your current slab, that work becomes part of the job.
- Add ons. A cover is often the start of a bigger yard plan, such as an outdoor kitchen underneath it.
We walk through each of these at your home. Then you get one written price for the whole job. Book your free estimate to get yours.
Why not $3,000?
You may have seen covers for a lot less. Our owner puts a vinyl or kit cover at about $2,000 to $3,000. We do not sell or install those. If that is your budget, we are not the right company for the job, and that is fine.
The difference buys a cover built on site for your house. It is wood framed, wrapped in Hardie or stone, and shingled to match your roof. It sits on footers sized for the job, with electrical, gutters and fees in the price. We build it to your home's roofline, columns and colors, which a kit cannot do.

Our price promise
If another contractor quotes the same materials for less, we will beat their price. Bring us the written quote. We check the column size, beam size, roof and which fees are included. If the materials match ours and the price is lower, we beat it.
Financing
If you want to spread out the cost, financing is available. Ask about it at your free estimate. Since the permit fees, HOA fees, electrical and gutters are already in the price, you know the full amount before you decide.
How long it takes
Your project starts with a free visit. We come to your home, measure the patio and talk through what you want. You get a written scope and price at no cost. Once you approve it, we handle the permit and the HOA submission. The build itself takes about 2 weeks.
