Patio cover construction can vary widely from one contractor to another. WRB Outdoors builds every patio cover to meet applicable local code requirements and uses stronger construction practices whenever possible.
In North Texas, patio cover requirements can vary by city, HOA, and project type. We build to meet applicable local code requirements and use best-practice construction details whenever possible, including stronger structural connections, durable exterior materials, proper roof integration, and uplift-conscious design.
Our standard patio cover designs target 105 mph uplift resistance unless local conditions, engineering, or city requirements call for a different standard.

Patio Cover Roof Styles
The right roof style depends on your home’s existing roofline, the patio location, your budget, and the finished look you want.
Gabled Patio Covers
A popular choice for a taller, more open feel. Gabled covers work well when you want visual impact, ventilation, and an outdoor room feel.
Hip Roof Patio Covers
A polished roof style that often blends well with existing home architecture and provides a finished, custom look.
Single-Slope Covers
A clean, efficient option for certain rooflines, side yards, and modern patio cover designs.
Freestanding Pavilions
A detached structure that creates a defined outdoor living area away from the home.
Lighting, Fans, and Electrical Planning
Most of our patio covers are built with electrical planning included, so the finished space functions like a true outdoor living area.
Comfort
Ceiling fans, switches, and layout planning help make the covered patio more comfortable in North Texas heat.
Lighting
Recessed lighting, pendant lighting, and decorative fixtures can be incorporated into the ceiling design.
