Custom Patio Covers in Franktown, CO
Out here a covered patio is the difference between watching the weather and living in it — hail on the roof, dinner still on the table. We build covers with the bones to take both.
Patio Cover Design & Materials for Franktown
Franktown properties wear heavy timber well: exposed beams, real post dimensions, rooflines that nod to a barn rather than a strip mall. Metal roofing earns its keep against hail and sheds snow cleanly; shingle-matched roofs keep the cover quiet against the house. Both come engineered, not improvised.
Structure, Snow & the County File
A roof over your patio is a permanent structure in the county's eyes — engineered drawings, a Douglas County permit and staged inspections. We size rafters and posts for drifting snow on open land, flash the house connection into the framing, and handle the county desk ourselves.
Building Your Patio Cover in Franktown
The build respects a working property: staging where you say, gates as you left them, and equipment routed clear of wells and septic fields we locate first. Most covers frame up in days once footings cure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on patio covers for Franktown properties.
Metal takes hail with a shrug, sheds snow and suits the rural look; shingles disappear against the house. The right call usually comes from which building the cover should converse with — home or barn — and we'll show you both.
Gladly — a detached pavilion over a fire pit or outdoor kitchen is a favorite out here. It still gets real footings and wind engineering; distance from the house doesn't excuse the structure.
If you want lights, a fan or heaters — yes, and it's far cheaper to rough-in during framing than to retrofit. We include the circuit planning in the design and coordinate the licensed electrical work.
