Covered Patio Builders & Outdoor Living in Houston, TX
Shade over it, a dry floor under it, and a reason to stay outside.
Covered patios, patio covers, pergolas, concrete patios, and outdoor kitchens built for Houston sun, humidity, and rain by one crew.
Covered patio builders for Houston backyards
A Houston backyard is usable ten months a year, as long as there is shade over it and a dry surface under it. Without both, it is a place you look at through the window.
AllPhase Contracting Group builds the structures that fix that, from a simple concrete patio to a covered outdoor room with a kitchen, fans, and lighting. The same crews that build roofs build patio covers, which matters more than it sounds when the cover has to tie into the house.
Covered patios that tie into the house correctly
An attached patio cover gives you the most usable shade next to the house, and it is only as good as its connection to the existing roof. Flashing, the ledger, and the way the new roof meets the old one are the details that keep water out of the wall. Our roofing crew handles that tie-in, so the cover and the house roof work as one system instead of two things that happen to touch.
When the eave is too low or the yard layout does not cooperate, a freestanding structure works better. The walkthrough covers the home, the sun exposure, and how you plan to use the space before a design is proposed.
Aluminum patio covers and pergolas
Insulated aluminum patio covers give you a lower maintenance shade structure that will not rot, warp, or need repainting in Houston humidity. Pergolas in cedar or aluminum give filtered shade and a defined space at a lower cost, and they take a ceiling fan and lights just as well. We explain the tradeoffs between wood, aluminum, and a fully roofed cover, and recommend based on maintenance and budget instead of defaulting to one product.
Concrete patios and patio extensions
Concrete is the floor of every outdoor living project, and it is where drainage is won or lost. Every slab is poured with slope away from the house, a finish that stays walkable when wet, and control joints where they belong. Stamped and broom finishes are both available. Extending an existing patio is common when the new cover is going to be bigger than the slab that is there.
Outdoor kitchens built as construction, not as a grill on a cart
An outdoor kitchen needs gas, water, drainage, counters, and electrical planned with the structure, or it gets added as an afterthought and looks like one. AllPhase builds the kitchen and the cover as one scope, with the utility inspections scheduled as part of the project. If the indoor kitchen remodel is happening the same year, the two projects share a schedule.
Drainage, HOA approval, and permits
A patio cover collects the same rain the house does and has to send it somewhere. Gutters and downspouts on the cover are planned with the rest of the project so runoff does not pool against the slab. Many Houston area neighborhoods, including most of Katy, Sugar Land, and The Woodlands, require architectural approval for exterior structures, and some cities require permits. We help you confirm what applies to your address before construction starts, and we build the approval time into the schedule.
Business property with an outdoor waiting area or a patio for customers? The same structures are built as commercial covered areas with access and drainage planned for the public.

Questions before the walkthrough?
If the answer depends on your property or your insurance policy, we will say so.
What does a covered patio cost in Houston?
Size, the roof style, whether it attaches to the house, materials, and any gas, water, or electrical work are the main drivers. The free estimate itemizes each so you can see what changes the price and adjust the scope.
Do I need HOA approval or a permit for a patio cover in Houston?
Often. Many Houston area neighborhoods require architectural approval for exterior structures, and some cities require building permits. We help you confirm what applies before work starts and build the approval time into the schedule.
Can a patio cover attach to my house?
Usually, yes. Attachment depends on the roofline, the eave height, and the wall structure. When attachment does not work well, a freestanding cover is designed instead.
How long does a covered patio take to build?
A concrete patio can be done in a few days. A covered patio typically takes one to three weeks depending on size, materials, and utility work. Outdoor kitchens add time for gas, water, and electrical inspections.
Can you run gas, water, and power to an outdoor kitchen?
Yes. Utilities are planned with the structure so lines are placed correctly and the required inspections are scheduled as part of the project.
Aluminum patio cover or wood: which holds up better in Houston?
Insulated aluminum will not rot, warp, or need repainting in the humidity, which makes it the lower maintenance choice. Cedar and treated lumber look warmer and cost less up front but need sealing every few years. We walk through both before you decide.
