DIY Friendly
Your Company is great to do business with. I called on Monday and the gentleman was very knowledgeable and ordered a 12 x 24 roof only it arrived on Wednesday only two days later. I put it together this weekend and all materials fit perfect and did not need to run to the local store for additional materials. I will recommend you and will call you for any other needs you may be able to provide in the future.

These units are designed according to the available engineering for our roof systems in both wall attached and freestanding configurations. The patio cover system we supply will always be quoted to meet or exceed the load you request during the quote process. Generic engineering span charts for the insulated panels and understructure are available at no cost and are normally sufficient for most building permit offices. However, state sealed engineering plans or site specific engineering might be needed in some cases and can be provided for an additional fee.
It is important to confirm your local municipal building department live load requirements in lb./sq.ft. and wind speed requirements in mph. You may or may not need a building permit for your installation, and this is the sole responsibility of the homeowner but we are always available to support the process. It is our strong recommendation that you acquire your permit prior to purchase or once it is ordered and you are awaiting delivery. Panel thickness, beam placements, beam size, distance between posts out front are a determined based on the load (snow & wind) that your cover will be subject to. Even though you may not require a permit, you will still need to contact them to get your local building code requirements so that we can quote the right system for your area.
