Covered Patios

Enhance your outdoor living space 

Patio Covers, also called covered patios, are among the most popular backyard shade structures that we build because of Houston’s hot climate. Lone Star Patio Builders has design options to custom build covered patios Houston clients can afford and appreciate. If you already have a covered porch or deck, we can extend any existing roof for greater outdoor shade coverage.

Covered Patio Professionals

Because we professionally build aluminum structures, we offer price comparisons that can’t be beat. Wood grained ceiling panels are available that look and feel like real wood. Our estimators design porch covers, awnings and screen rooms to compliment your backyard and add value to your home. Custom lighting and ceiling fan installation is available on anything we install. Available roof styles include gabled, flat and single slope designs. We also have many other services such as stamped concrete available on any installation package.


Affordable Covered Patios


Unlike wood, insulated metal or aluminum covered patios have several distinct advantages.

  • A covered patio made of aluminum is much more affordable than wood construction and can be shingled to match your home.
  • A metal porch cover is resistant to mold, mildew and pests like termites, ants and bees.
  • There is never a need to ever repaint our structures.
  • Any metal cover or awning we install has a lifetime warranty.
  • Our insulated roof panels will make any backyard space cooler.
  • Most jobs are completed in just one day.

Most Common Patio Cover Questions


  • What is a covered patio called?

    The term covered patio can be used interchangeably with pergola or patio cover. Most often this refers to a solid roof structure designed to provide 100% protection from sun and rain.

  • How much does it cost to put in a covered patio?

    The average cost for a roof extension is $4,500.00 – $8,000.00 for a 12’x20′ area. This is assuming that a concrete slab already exists. Several factors contribute to the total cost including overall size. Additional items such as ceiling fan installation can also contribute to an increased installation cost.

  • Is a covered patio or pergola cheaper?

    Installing a cover made of aluminum is about the same price as a pergola. Both will average about $35.00 per square foot. A pergola will become more expensive if options such as staining are included which will add an additional cost of $7.00 per square foot.

"What a pleasant experience. The crew was early to our job and very professional. The installation went quickly. We highly recommend Lone Star for your pergola/patio needs. We were shocked at how quickly our pergolas were installed and in the Houston heat. We would definitely recommend Lone Star for our future needs."
