New Orleans Patio Covers
Aluminum patio covers in New Orleans, standard and insulated, built by our roofing crew to keep the rain and sun off your patio, deck, porch or carport.
Standard and Insulated Aluminum Patio Covers
Standard aluminum patio cover
A single-skin aluminum pan roof on aluminum posts and beams. Light, strong, never rots and never needs paint. The most affordable way to cover a patio, carport or walkway.
Insulated aluminum patio cover
A 3-inch foam-core panel with aluminum skins on both sides. It blocks heat so the patio stays cooler, quiets the rain, and can carry ceiling fans and lights. Our most popular cover for outdoor living space.
What is included
- Engineered for Louisiana wind loads
- Attached to the house with proper flashing, or free-standing
- Built-in gutter edge and downspouts
- White, tan or bronze finish
- Lights, fans and screen options
Patio covers are built by the same crew that does our roofs, so the flashing where the cover meets the house is done right.
5-year workmanship warranty. Every new patio cover is covered for 5 years from completion, and it transfers to a new owner at no cost.
Why Aluminum Patio Covers Work in New Orleans
Wood patio covers rot, warp and need paint in our heat and humidity. Aluminum does not. It will not rot or feed termites, it holds its finish for years, and it is light enough to attach to most homes without heavy footings.
Where our customers put them
- Back patios and slabs
- Wood and composite decks
- Front and side porches
- Carports and driveways
- Walkways between the house and a garage or shed
Built by a roofer
The weak spot on most patio covers is where they meet the house. Because our roofing crew builds them, the cover is tied into the roof or wall with proper flashing, so water runs off instead of into your house.
Want a cover and a new roof? We can do both and match the finishes. See roof replacement.

New Orleans Patio Cover FAQ
Standard or insulated?
If you will sit under it on summer afternoons, insulated. It is noticeably cooler and quieter in rain. For a carport or walkway, standard does the job for less.
Do I need a permit?
Attached covers usually need a city permit; we handle it.
How long does it take?
Most covers go up in one to two days once materials arrive.
Can you add lights or a fan?
Yes, on insulated covers. Tell us at the estimate so the panel and wiring are planned in.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. Every new patio cover carries our 5-year workmanship warranty, transferable to a new owner at no cost.
