Shade, Shelter, and Year-Round Comfort

Covered Decks & Patio Roofs in New Mexico

Protection That Looks as Good as It Works

Custom Roof Structures for Decks and Patios

A covered deck or patio roof adds value, comfort, and usable time outside. We build freestanding and attached structures with wood, aluminum, or hybrid materials—framed to match your deck and home. Each roof is engineered for local wind, sun, and load conditions, with integrated drainage and clean flashing. We help you choose between solid, slatted, or polycarbonate covers based on function and design.

More Time Outside. Less Sunburn.

What’s Included in Our Covered Deck & Patio Roof Builds

We offer full design-to-build service for new deck covers, including structural tie-ins, roof framing, trim, and finish work. Whether you need shade from the summer heat or want to enjoy your deck year-round, we’ll build the right cover for your goals, space, and budget.

  • Gable, shed, or pergola-style roof options

  • Framing engineered for NM weather and wind

Shade That Stands Up to New Mexico’s Sun & Wind

Engineered Framing for Lasting Protection

We frame every patio roof to handle the unique climate challenges of New Mexico. That means deeper footings, reinforced headers, hurricane ties, and water-resistant flashing. Whether you’re building over a wood or composite deck, our team ensures your structure is secure, properly sloped, and sealed for long-term performance. We also handle tie-ins to existing homes or rooflines while maintaining proper drainage and load support.

Choose the Right Cover for Your Outdoor Lifestyle

We build a range of shade structures to suit different goals. Want filtered light and an airy feel? A pergola or lattice cover is ideal. Prefer full protection from sun and rain? Choose a solid wood or aluminum roof. We help you weigh ventilation, light control, durability, and cost—then design a cover that blends perfectly with your deck and home.

Seamless Additions for Existing Decks or Patios

Retrofits and Upgrades for Shade Without Rebuilding

Already have a deck or patio? We can add a roof without tearing anything out. Our retrofit covers tie into existing framing or ground supports and can be designed to match your current deck layout. We install all necessary structural reinforcements, roof panels, and finishing trim—so your upgrade looks intentional, not like an afterthought.
