Because we build across the Pikes Peak region — Colorado Springs, Briargate, and neighboring cities — the crew has seen the failure modes: bad flashings, undersized joists, low-grade composite in south-facing sun. We build the opposite of those.

Patio Covers FAQs — Briargate
+ Solid roof or louvered — what's right for Briargate?
Solid roof gives you a real dry room and handles Colorado snow. Louvered aluminum opens the sky in summer and closes for shade — great in Briargate's full southern and western sun most of the afternoon. Most clients pick solid on north-facing patios and louvered on the sunny sides.
+ Will a patio cover tie into my existing 1990s-and-newer two-stories with walk-out basements and steep backyard grades roofline?
Yes — we design covers to read as part of the original house. Matching pitch, matching soffits and fascia, and shingles that blend into Briargate homes.
+ How does a cover hold up to hail in Briargate?
Shingled solid covers take hail like your house does — they're built the same way. Louvered aluminum panels are designed to take Colorado hail and stay functional through storm seasons.
+ Can I add heaters, fans, and lights to a Briargate patio cover?
Yes — we frame for infrared heaters, ceiling fans (worth it in Briargate's summer), and recessed lighting so wiring is easy to add.

Yes. We come out, walk the space, and lay out both solid-roof and louvered options in a written scope so you can compare side by side.
+ Do covers work year-round in Briargate?
Yes — with strong north-side wind and heavy afternoon sun in summer, a good cover adds shoulder-season time and gives you a shaded spot in July and August. Add a heater and it works into winter.
