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 Northgate's many backyards open west toward the mountains. Most clients pick solid on north-facing patios and louvered on the sunny sides.

Yes — we design covers to read as part of the original house. Matching pitch, matching soffits and fascia, and shingles that blend into Northgate homes.

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.
