Why Invest in a Patio Cover?

Adding a patio cover is one of the best ways to enhance your backyard while also making your home more functional. A well-designed patio cover provides a range of benefits that make outdoor living more enjoyable and comfortable.

Protection from the Elements

Houston’s weather can be unpredictable, with intense sun, humidity, and sudden rain showers. A patio cover ensures that your outdoor space remains usable no matter the conditions, offering shade on hot days and protection from unexpected downpours.

Extends Your Living Space

A patio cover transforms your backyard into a true extension of your home. Whether you want a space for hosting gatherings, enjoying meals outdoors, or relaxing with a book, a covered patio provides a comfortable and inviting environment.

Reduces Energy Costs

By shading your patio and the adjacent areas of your home, an insulated aluminum patio cover helps reduce indoor temperatures, lowering cooling costs and improving energy efficiency.

Increases Home Value

A professionally installed patio cover enhances the overall aesthetic and functionality of your outdoor space, making it an attractive feature for potential buyers.

The Best Choice for Durability and Comfort.

At 21st Century Sunrooms, we only build premium insulated aluminum patio covers because they offer the best combination of performance, aesthetics, and long-term value.

Insulated Aluminum Panels for Maximum Comfort

Our 3” & 4” insulated panels feature a high-density foam core that acts as a thermal barrier. This helps to regulate temperatures, keeping your patio cooler in the summer while reducing heat buildup near your home.

Weather-Resistant and Low Maintenance

Unlike wood, which can rot, warp, or attract termites, our aluminum patio covers are resistant to moisture, pests, and UV damage. They maintain their appearance without the need for repainting or refinishing.

Integrated Gutter System for Rain Protection

Each patio cover includes a built-in drainage system that efficiently channels rainwater away, keeping your patio dry and functional even during heavy rain.

Customizable to Match Your Home

We offer multiple colors and trim styles to ensure that your patio cover blends seamlessly with your home’s exterior.

How Our Aluminum Patio Covers Compare to Other Options

Choosing the right patio cover material is an important decision. Here’s how our insulated aluminum covers compare to other materials:

Aluminum vs. Wood – Wood patio covers require regular staining and sealing, while aluminum is maintenance-free and resistant to moisture and pests.

Aluminum vs. Vinyl – Vinyl can fade and become brittle over time, whereas aluminum maintains its strength and appearance for decades.

Aluminum vs. Steel – Steel is highly durable but prone to rust if not properly treated. Aluminum offers similar strength while remaining rust-resistant.

For homeowners seeking a long-lasting, low-maintenance patio cover, insulated aluminum is the best choice.

Good, fair estimate beat 2 other contractors for a simple patio cover, with new concrete slab. They were pleasant to work with, straight forward, use good materials and hard-working. No wonder they've been doing it for 4 years. Call them.
