Do I need approval for a patio?

It depends on the size, location and how the structure is attached. We will talk through what your job is likely to need and where certification or engineering may be required before any work is booked.

What is the difference between an insulated patio and a standard cover?

An insulated panel has a foam core between two sheets, which reduces radiant heat and rain noise. A single-skin cover is lighter on budget but hotter and noisier underneath.

Can you cover an existing deck or slab?

Often yes. We look at the existing structure, footings and the fixing points on the house, then discuss the practical options for your space.

Overview

About patios & pergolas

A covered outdoor area is one of the most used parts of a Queensland home. We build insulated patios, flat-roof covers and pergola structures that suit the way the house sits on the block, the shade you want and the weather the space has to handle.

What we cover

Insulated patio roofing over decks, courtyards and paved areas
Flat and skillion patio covers attached to the existing home
Freestanding pergolas and shade structures
Post, beam and rafter framing for outdoor entertaining areas
Extending an existing patio or replacing a tired cover

Things to consider

Insulated panel roofing helps with heat and noise, while single-skin sheeting keeps costs lower.
Structures can be attached to the house or built freestanding depending on the roofline and setbacks.
Post spacing, beam sizes and footings depend on span, site conditions and any engineering required for the job.
