Choosing a Patio Cover for Your El Cajon Home

If you’ve thought of installing a patio cover at your El Cajon area home, you have a number of important decisions to make. For instance, should you go with an aluminum or vinyl cover? Should it be attached to your home or would a free-standing cover prove more beneficial? In a sea of seemingly never-ending questions, at least one is easy to answer: Turn to the outdoor living experts at Pacific Patio for the construction of your new patio cover.

We’ve proudly served El Cajon since 1989, which makes us significantly more experienced than many other patio products installers in the area. During the last 20 years, we’ve perfected the art of meticulously constructing patio covers that will stand the test of time while providing our customers with the top-notch customer service they deserve.

Options to Suit Every Situation

Our expertise will undoubtedly come in handy when you start making the big decisions about your new patio cover. You can count on us for assistance every step of the way, including the task of choosing which type of covering will best suit your needs. At Pacific Patio, we help our customers choose between the following types of patio covers:

• Pavilions, which offer full shade and are thermally insulated to deflect the sun’s heat
• Pergolas that feature a unique curved design, providing partial shade
• Garden arbors that add a stunning focal point to any home’s backyard or entryway

Solid Roofs Vs. Lattice Roof

Our solid-roof structures feature polycarbonate panels with an eight-chambered design that provides enhanced strength and rigidity. Options include integrated fascia and gutters, retractable screens, ceiling fans, and custom lighting. Lattice-roofed structures, also known as pergolas, provide a classic look that can complement any style of home. You’ll be able to choose from three different Italianesque column designs and either white or sandstone frame colors.

But what if you want to combine the look of a pergola with the shade protection of a pavilion? No problem! We actually offer two options. Our operable pergolas have motorized louvers that pivot from vertical to horizontal (or anywhere in between) with just the push of a button. You’ll always have just the right amount of sun protection, from full exposure to total shade. We can also install a patio cover that combines a solid roof with pergola trim. You’ll also be able to add retractable screens, either at the time of installation or at a later point, for enhanced privacy, glare reduction, and insect abatement.

What’s more, all of our patio covers feature extruded aluminum frames with electrostatic finishes. You’ll never have to worry about your new addition rotting, rusting, warping, or becoming a meal for hungry termites. They’ll also resist color fading, peeling, chalking, scratching, and chipping. And since every cover is custom made to the exact dimensions of your outdoor living area, you can be confident it will fit your home to perfection.
