Pavilions and Covered Patios in Cumming, GA
Freestanding pavilions, roof extensions and covered patios.
What it involves
What goes into it.
A roof over the patio means you can use it in summer sun and spring rain. It can be a freestanding pavilion in the yard, or a roof extended off the house over an existing patio.
We plan the posts, the roof line and how it ties into the house, and we can add lights, fans and outlets while it is being built.

Questions people ask
What to know about pavilions and covered patios.
Can you match our house roof?
Yes. We match the shingles or metal and the trim so it looks like part of the house.
Can it go over our existing patio?
Usually. We check that there is room for footings at the posts without breaking up the patio.
Can you add a fireplace or kitchen under it?
Yes, and it is best to plan them together so the roof, chimney and utilities fit.
