A covered patio should make your backyard more comfortable for dining, relaxing, and entertaining.


A covered patio adds shade and overhead protection for backyard dining, grilling, relaxing, and entertaining. These questions explain roof style, posts, drainage, lighting, fans, and future enclosure options.
Permit and HOA review, surveys, utility locations, weather, concrete or paver base conditions, custom roofing, material lead times, hidden damage, and inspection scheduling can affect timing. Drainage or grading issues discovered during excavation may require design changes.
A framed porch or deck works well where elevation, crawl space, or covered construction is needed. Concrete provides a durable continuous surface with many finish options. Pavers offer modular patterns and easier localized repair but require proper base preparation. Drainage, height, appearance, and maintenance should guide the choice.
Consider door clearance, furniture, grill or kitchen location, shade, views, steps, accessibility, drainage, and the path between the house, yard, driveway, and pool. The finished surface should slope and drain correctly without directing water toward the home.
Yes. Front porches, back porches, covered patios, concrete patios, and paver patios can be designed around door locations, grade, walkways, landscaping, drainage, views, and furniture. ModExt coordinates the footprint, steps, railings, roof, and finishes so the space fits the home.
