Creating the perfect patio for your home, outdoor space and individual requirements and preferences is an art, but we have some quick tips to help you get started.
Discuss your needs with an experienced patio consultant. That way you’ll get insights into the different styles, materials and brands before you get your heart set on something that may not be appropriate for your house or location.
Ensure the builder you choose sticks to high standards of engineering and construction and can prove their compliance with local legislation. This ensures you get a result that’s practical, durable and right for your needs.
Watch out for signs of poor workmanship or lack of experience. These can include errors like over-spanning, which is where the patio cover projects too far from your home. This can result in your patio roof sagging and leaking, leading to a reduced lifespan.
Like any product, you get what you pay for with patio covers. The cheaper the brand, the more lightweight and less usable it tends to be.
In our part of Australia, we’re lucky enough to enjoy amazing weather that lets us spend more time outdoors. But with all this sun, patio covers need to be extremely durable, as well as helping deflect the heat so you can stay cool and comfortable while you’re outdoors.
Though most patio covers are designed to suit conditions in the southern states, we know which brands and materials are best for Queensland and Northern NSW. We take into account aspects like structural integrity, weather resistance and specific standards designated by local authorities. Let us take care of your patio and patio cover and you can rest assured it will stand the test of time!

This classy roofing solution features a premium colour-coated finish to ensure it matches the style of your patio. The construction of heat-deflective roofing minimises heat transfer, helping to keep your outdoor area cool in summer. Heat-deflective roofing doesn’t require an existing structure.
Insulated patio roofing delivers a gorgeous flat ceiling finish that’s perfect for Brisbane homes. The tough insulation offers almost no heat transfer, making your patio comfortable all year-round. No structure is required for the installation of composite/insulated roofing.
Featuring a louvre-style setup, this roofing material gives you complete control over how much light seeps into your outdoor area. On those cool winter days, you can enjoy the comfort of your outdoor spaces by basking in the warmth of natural light. An existing structure needs to be in place to support this style of patio roof.
If you’re looking to enjoy the warmth and comfort of the sun without the hassle of rain, a clear patio roof is the only way to go. This style may require a structure to be built, but the benefits of clear/polycarbonate roofing materials are worth the effort.
