Patio covers, covered patios, carports and outdoor living structures across San Angelo, Tom Green County and the Concho Valley. Built for 30 days a year over 100 degrees and for hail that arrives most years in May.
No obligation. Every estimate starts at the house, looking at the slab, the wall you would attach to and where the afternoon sun actually lands.
Attached patio cover · illustrativeThe first is the wall. Most San Angelo houses have brick or stone veneer between the patio and anything structural, and veneer holds up nothing but itself. A cover either reaches past it into framing or stands on its own posts.
The second is the ground. The soil series named from Tom Green County include Lipan and Tobosa, both true Vertisols, with cracks that stay open more than 150 days a year. Footings get designed for that or they move.
The third is hail. The National Weather Service office here recorded 3,488 severe hail events across its 23-county area, and 47.6 percent of them fell in the 1.75 to 2.75 inch band. Panel gauge and fastener pattern decide whether that is a dent or a repair.
Prices are planning ranges for San Angelo, installed. Where you land inside one depends on span, attachment and what the ground turns out to be.

$38 to $70 per sq ft →03In a town that averages two days a year of hail over an inch, a carport is not a luxury item. It is the cheapest square.
$16 to $34 per sq ft →04A pergola is the honest option when you want to break the sun without closing the sky. It will not keep you dry, and.
$28 to $60 per sq ft →05An outdoor kitchen is priced by the counter run, and it is made expensive or cheap by decisions taken before any.
$180 to $650 per linear ft of counter run →06Concrete is the cheapest square footage on this site and the least forgiving. On the clay under San Angelo, what you.
$9 to $18 per sq ft →07An enclosure is where an outdoor project quietly turns into an addition, and the point at which that happens has.
$55 to $110 per sq ft →08Most of San Angelo is flat enough that a deck is a choice rather than a necessity. Where the ground falls away, it is.
$28 to $60 per sq ft →Nothing here is unusual. It is written down because most people have never done it and the order matters more than any single step.
At the house. We look at the wall, the slab, the drainage and where the sun lands at the hour you actually use the space.

Nothing shrugs off a baseball-size stone. What design controls is whether the damage is cosmetic or structural. San Angelo took hail of that size on 23 May 2024, with a 73 mph gust alongside it.
