“Amazing service and fantastic work! Our patio was recently built and the quality is amazing. From the get go, this company was great to work with. I spoke with Chelsea, met with Matt and had Chris as our installer. Everything was so easy and understandable. I can't rave enough about the great service! There were so many color options and build options. I'm very happy with the outcome.”

“Valley patios worked with me to create a perfect patio cover. They also worked with my HOA to help expedite approval. Their communication is excellent. And most importantly, my patio cover is beautiful and exactly as we discussed in the planning process. The demolition crew and installation crew had a great attitude and did an excellent job of cleanup. I highly recommend this company.”

FAQ about Solid Roof Aluminum Patio Covers
-
Solid roof aluminum patio covers are designed to move water toward integrated gutters and downspouts. Oftentimes, these covers are waterproof in the majority of areas, but may have a few small drips here or there due to product design. If your patio cover is attached to a stucco house, you will likely see wet stucco after a heavy rainstorm, as the stucco above the patio cover absorbs water.
-
Absolutely! These are both GREAT ways to cut down on the low angle sun while adding a bit of privacy to your outdoor living area. Valley Patios provides a variety of options including lattice privacy walls, motorized & manual retractable screens, and retractable awnings.
-
Of course! We’ll even install them for you on the initial build!
Scroll back up to see some photos of patio covers with integrated fans and lighting. Fans and lightning on your solid roof patio cover will illuminate your evening meal or get the warm summer air moving through.
-
Yes. Our solid roof aluminum patio covers are engineered to withstand up to 130 MPH winds. As always, the biggest risk during windstorms comes from flying debris like tree limbs.
-
Our most popular color schemes include two-toned with White flat panels and either a Graphite or Spanish Brown frame. Our patio cover experts can help you select an option that pairs well with your house!
-
No. Non-insulated flat panels are built to withstand high winds and earthquakes, but are not designed for downward weight or foot traffic.
Even something like a fan requires reinforcing brackets to prevent warping.
-
We recommend spraying down your aluminum patio cover with a garden hose from top to bottom when dust starts to accumulate. For stains, a bucket of warm water with a mild detergent will work wonders while preserving the powder coat on the paint.
NEVER use a pressure washer, as it can remove the powder coat and void your warranty.
-
Modern aluminum patio covers are often cheaper than an equivalent wood patio, and they’ll never rot!
