Don't take our word for it, ask Mike and Marge

Mike and Marge started their journey with 3 trees crashing through their home. They ended with a beautiful deck and wood framed patio cover. Read how we were able to work with them to take back their home. 

Our Patio Cover Process

  1. We keep it simple and clear. A customer service representative starts with a ballpark estimate before handing your patio cover to an estimator who works with you on the design and pricing.
  2. A project manager takes over, ensuring regular updates from scheduling to build. Our crew consists of 2–3 craftsmen, led by a foreman who verifies every detail with you, completes the installation.
  3. A final walkthrough checks that everything meets your standards. If any issues arise from our workmanship, our lifetime warranty covers repairs.

Engineered with aluminum or wood frames, these covers block harsh rain and sun while still allowing natural light in. Best for the rainy Northwest—blocks rain, filters UV rays, and keeps heat at bay.

Custom-built for a natural, high-end appearance that blends seamlessly with your home’s aesthetics. Options include both A-frame (gable style) and shed style.

Ideal for those looking for decorative shade; they’re perfect where you want atmosphere and style without full weather protection.

Acrylite vs Wood Framed Patio Covers

Frequently Asked Questions About Patio Covers

Yes, although if there is a deck, air and moisture can creep up from the ground beneath the deckboards causing rot and other damage. To mitigate this we suggest a motorized screen like the ones we install from Fenetex. We've found this is often a better solution to enclose an area

We've found that in the Pacific Northwest the best material for a patio cover is Acrylite / Aluminum. These patio covers keep out the rain and heat but let natural light still shine through. However always consider there are pros and cons of different materials, styles, and factors in things such as maintenance / cost.

It isn't smart to put a wood fire pit under a cover because the smoke/sparks can damage the underside of the cover. However, we've found a gas firepit is works great. We tell all of our customers that grills are also safe to use under a patio cover.

The cost of a patio cover depends on several factors like style, size, material, installation method, and permits.

  • Pergolas: Most affordable option.
    • Cost: Approximately $7,000–$9,000 for a 14x14 ft size ($40–$55 per square foot).
  • Acrylic Patio Covers: Mid-range pricing.
    • Cost: Around $12,500–$16,000 for a 14x14 ft size ($63–$81 per square foot).
  • Wood Patio Covers:
    • Gable Style (A-shaped):
      • Cost: $22,000–$25,000 for a 14x14 ft size ($112–$127 per square foot).
    • Shed Style (Flat Roof):
      • Cost: $19,000–$21,000 for a 14x14 ft size ($96–$114 per square foot).

Additional Costs:

  • Permits: May add $400–$800 in Washington or $1,500–$3,000 in Oregon.
  • Foundation Support: Extra costs if your deck requires additional structural support.

The most cost effective way to cover a patio would be to purchase a canopy from Costco. The most effective way Cascade Fence and Deck could cover a patio is with a wood framed shed style patio cover with asphalt shingle roofing.
