Patio Cover Contractor FAQs

What is the difference between a patio cover and a covered deck?

A patio cover creates a roofed outdoor space over a ground-level patio, while a covered deck adds that shelter over an elevated deck. Both can use similar roof styles, including gable designs, but each is planned around the existing space, the home, and how the covered area will be used.
A gable cover uses a pitched roof that helps move rain and snow away from the covered space. The higher center also creates a more open feel below, making it well-suited for larger dining, seating, and entertaining areas.

Can a patio cover be added to an existing patio?

Yes. Colorado Deck Experts can design a cover for an existing patio after reviewing the space, the home, and the proposed roof location. The design is then planned around the patio layout, access points, roofline, and the way you want to use the covered area.
A solid patio cover provides dependable shade from intense afternoon sun and shelter from rain, hail, and passing storms. A pitched roof also helps move rain and snow away, giving you a more comfortable outdoor space through more of Colorado’s changing weather.
