A patio cover can be attached to the building or freestanding on its own posts. In either case, roof panels, support, drainage and attachment conditions should be understood before the structure is assembled.
NY-GoodHome accepts patio-cover installation requests in Brooklyn and New York City. Call (223) 226-1828 with the product or design, dimensions and site photos.
Attached or Freestanding?
Attached systems place loads into the house or supporting wall. Freestanding covers rely on posts and bases. The product requirements should guide which structure is appropriate for the site.
Structural attachment should not be improvised from appearance alone.
Roof, Posts and Drainage
Panel systems need the correct slope and support. Water should be considered at edges and any gutter interface.
Foundation or footing requirements for the posts are separate site conditions that need to be confirmed.
Patio Cover vs Awning or Pergola
Retractable/fabric systems belong on Awning & Shade Installation. Open-roof or louvered structures can fit Pergola Assembly.
