Shade When You Want It. Shelter When You Need It.

Covered Decks & Patio Roofs in South Carolina

Stay Dry, Cool & Comfortable

Why Covered Decks Are Popular Across South Carolina

ith high humidity, blazing summers, and unpredictable rain, South Carolina homeowners need outdoor spaces that work in all conditions. Covered decks provide year-round comfort, better furniture protection, and a polished transition between indoors and out. Whether attached to your house or freestanding, these builds extend your usable square footage while adding curb appeal.

Built to Match. Framed to Last.

What’s Included in Our Covered Deck Construction

Our covered decks include structural roof framing, tie-ins to your existing home, and optional ceiling finishes. We build gable, shed, or hip roofs — or install pergolas, shade systems, or retractable covers. Electrical options like ceiling fans and lights are common add-ons. All materials are selected for long-term outdoor exposure, and everything is designed to blend seamlessly with your home.

Make Outdoor Time More Comfortable

Protection From the Sun, Rain & Storms

Covered decks give you more freedom to enjoy the outdoors — even during South Carolina’s unpredictable weather. Our roof systems are built with engineered framing, water management, and strong fasteners to hold up through wind and heat. You can grill in a light drizzle, entertain in the shade, or simply relax without constantly checking the weather.

Framed Right. Finished Smart.

Custom Roof Structures That Look Like They Belong

A roof shouldn’t look like an afterthought. We match roof pitch, shingles, trim, and posts so your covered deck feels like a natural extension of your home — not a bolt-on. Want a wood-paneled ceiling? Hidden lighting? Skylights? We’ll design the structure to complement your architecture and deliver both comfort and curb appeal.

More Shade. Less Maintenance.

A Covered Deck Adds Life to Your Deck and Furniture

UV rays and heavy rain don’t just wear down wood — they age your furniture, fade finishes, and reduce your deck’s lifespan. A covered structure blocks sun, shields from downpours, and cuts down on seasonal maintenance. You’ll protect what you’ve built and get more use out of every square foot.

Covered Deck FAQs

Common Questions From South Carolina Homeowners

Thinking about adding a roof or cover to your deck? Here’s what you should know before getting started.

Can I add a roof to my existing deck?

Yes — if the framing is strong and the posts are rated for the load. We’ll inspect and advise if any upgrades are needed.

What kinds of covers do you offer?

We build framed roofs (gable, shed, hip), pergolas, and install canopy or shade systems depending on your needs.

Can I include lighting and fans?

Absolutely. Many covered decks include recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and even heaters — all built to code.

Does it need a permit?

Yes. Because of structural and weather concerns, we handle full permitting for all roofed structures.
