PATIO COVERS in Garland, Dallas, TX and surrounding areas
Custom Patio Covers Built for North Texas Living
When you live in Garland or anywhere near Dallas, you know that a little shade goes a long way. By July, the patio bricks are hot enough to fry breakfast—and by spring, a sudden hailstorm can undo weeks of backyard work. That’s where a solid patio cover makes all the difference.
At
Dynamo Home Improvements, we’ve been building
custom patio covers for families across Dallas County for over two decades. Whether you want to turn your backyard into a relaxing retreat or protect your patio furniture from the Texas sun, we design and build patio shade solutions that hold up beautifully year after year.
How We Build Our Patio Covers
We don’t sell catalog models. Every patio cover installation starts with a site visit, some real conversation, and a design that fits your home—not just your square footage. Some folks want simple backyard patio covers for shade and cookouts. Others need larger patio enclosure systems with ceiling fans, lighting, and gutter tie-ins.
Once you know what you want, we’ll handle the design, engineering, and all city permits. Our patio cover builders fabricate everything on-site—no flimsy panels or snap-together kits. When we’re done, you’ll have a covered patio that looks like it was built with your home, not added years later.
We take our time where it counts: leveling, sealing, and finishing every seam so it stays tight and watertight.
Made for Dallas Weather
Every patio cover we build is designed to stand up to what North Texas throws at it—110° summers, sideways rain, and the occasional ice storm.
We use heavy-gauge metal patio covers and aluminum patio covers that are UV-resistant and won’t warp, fade, or rust. Roof panels are anchored and flashed properly so wind gusts can’t lift them. Posts are set deep in concrete, not surface-mounted like the cheap kits.
The goal? Real protection from the sun and storms—so your patio stays usable all year long in Garland, Dallas, TX, and the surrounding areas.
Types of Patio Covers We Build
Attached Patio Covers
These extend right from your home’s existing roofline, giving you a clean, built-in look that feels permanent—not tacked on. They’re ideal if you want your covered patio to flow naturally from the kitchen, living room, or back door. We match roof pitch, color, and trim so it blends perfectly.
Freestanding Patio Covers
If you’ve got an open yard or garden, a freestanding design gives you flexibility. Set up a shaded spot by the pool, an outdoor dining area, or even a workspace for weekend projects. These outdoor patio covers stand strong on their own, anchored for Texas winds and built to last through long summers.
Insulated Patio Roofing
Hot afternoons hit different in North Texas. With insulated patio roofing, your space stays cooler, quieter, and more comfortable. The panels reduce heat transfer and muffle rain noise, so you can enjoy your patio year-round without baking or shouting over the weather.
Affordable Patio Covers
We also build affordable patio covers that balance cost and quality. No shortcuts, no flimsy materials—just solid construction using proven materials like aluminum patio covers or metal patio covers that look sharp and hold up for years.
We’ve built residential patio covers from Garland to Mesquite and Plano to Rowlett—each one customized for the home’s light angles, yard layout, and how the homeowners actually live outside.

Common Questions About Patio Covers
How long does it take to build a patio cover?
Most of our patio cover installations in Garland, Dallas, TX, and the surrounding areas take two to four days, depending on size, weather, and any electrical add-ons like fans or lighting.
Do I need a permit for a new patio cover in Garland?
Yes, most cities around Dallas—like Garland, Plano, and Mesquite—require a simple building permit. We handle all of that for you and make sure it meets local codes and HOA requirements.
What’s the best material for patio covers in Texas?
We usually recommend aluminum or steel. Aluminum patio covers resist rust, are lightweight, and reflect heat; metal patio covers add extra strength for areas that see high winds or hail. We’ll help you choose based on your home’s design and exposure.
Can you match my home’s color or roofing?
Absolutely. We color-match fascia, siding, and trim so your covered patio looks original to your home—not like an afterthought.

Every beam, post, and panel is chosen to survive Dallas weather and look good doing it.
