Transform your ordinary outdoor space in your backyard into the neighborhood envy with a custom covered patio. There are a lot of different options and upgrades when it comes to building a patio cover, so let’s dive right into the alternative enhancements offered for custom covered patio builds.
Electrical
Adding electrical is the simplest upgraded that can be added to a covered patio, but often times the most useful. It is recommended to include recessed lighting to light your patio at night, at least 1 GCFI outlet, and a fan to keep the air flowing during the hot summer months.
Post Upgrades
Posts by default are wrapped in Hardie, caulked, and painted, but the posts can be upgraded for more natural materials like cedar to give your cover an even more custom natural wood look. Also, posts can be wrapped with pedestals, and they can be built with a variety of different materials. Adding pedestals is an appealing feature to add to your custom patio cover to make your cover unique and even more beautiful.
Concrete Upgrades
Concrete can be finished in a few different ways to give it a beautiful custom look and provide additional protection to keep your concrete in great condition. Applying an epoxy sealant is one option to achieve a custom concrete look, drastically increase the protection of your concrete, and do it all on a cost friendly budget. The second option available for concrete upgrades is stamped concrete. Stamped concrete is our most popular choice, matching the elegance of indoor flooring and the durability of concrete to give an amazing finish to your patio floor.
Ceiling Upgrades
Ceilings, similar to posts are by default finished with Hardie boards, caulked and painted. Stained tongue and groove ceilings are a beautiful upgrade to add to any cover to give it an amazing accent. Stained tongue and groove will give your patio a natural wooden finish while retaining its beauty for years to come.
Covered Patio upgrades can be mixed, matched, and tailored specifically to your liking. The possibilities of covered patio upgrades are abundant with endless combinations. In any case, adding a custom covered patio to your home will transform your outdoor space into a more enjoyable and comfortable atmosphere.
