Patio Covers & Awnings

Patio covers, awnings and pergolas

Utah summers are made for outdoor living, and Utah winters are hard on anything built outdoors. Hamblin Homes builds patio covers, awnings and pergolas framed for real snow and wind loads and roofed to match your house.

What is patio covers and awnings?

A patio cover is a roofed structure over a patio or deck, either attached to the house or freestanding. In Utah it has to be designed for local snow load and wind, and an attached cover needs a proper ledger connection and roof tie-in so it does not leak into the house or overload the existing structure.

Outdoor structures we build

  • Attached patio covers: solid-roof covers that tie into your existing roofline.
  • Freestanding covers and pavilions: for poolside, backyard or outdoor-kitchen spaces.
  • Awnings: over doors, windows and entries for shade and weather protection.
  • Pergolas: open-beam shade structures, with or without a solid or louvered top.

Built for Utah snow and wind

Required snow loads in Utah vary with elevation, and bench and canyon-mouth neighborhoods see strong wind. We size posts, beams and footings for your location and pull the permit when your city requires one, so your cover passes inspection and holds up in February.

Where we work

We serve the Wasatch Front: Weber County, Davis County, Salt Lake County, Utah County, including Ogden, Layton, Bountiful, Salt Lake City, Sandy, Draper, Lehi, Provo.

Common questions

Do I need a permit for a patio cover in Utah?

Most Wasatch Front cities require a building permit for a roofed patio cover, especially one attached to the house. Requirements vary by city and size; we check and handle the permit.

Can a patio cover match my roof?

Yes. Solid-roof covers can use the same shingles or a matching metal roof, with gutters tied into your existing system.

Do you build small projects?

Yes. Awnings, entry covers and pergolas are welcome projects, not just large builds.
