Renaissance Patio Insulated Aluminum Cover Installation | Two-Day Install Over Existing Concrete Pad
This Anderson Mill project added a Renaissance Patio insulated aluminum cover over a home's existing back patio. The insulated roof panels block heat far better than a bare pergola, which matters during 100-degree Austin summers. We chose aluminum because it won't warp, rot, or rust like wood does in Central Texas humidity and hail. The finished cover turned an unused slab into a usable shaded retreat in just two working days.

The homeowner found Austin Pro through an internet search and reached out on May 11, 2023. They had a concrete patio already in place but no shade, and wanted a cover that could stand up to Austin summers.
We visited the Anderson Mill home to inspect the existing slab. The concrete was in solid shape with no major cracks and even settling, which told us it could support the cover posts without new footings. We also confirmed drainage would carry rainwater away from the house.
After the inspection, we scoped a Renaissance Patio insulated aluminum cover sized to the existing pad. The homeowner reviewed the plan and approved the project on May 15, 2023, just four days after first contact.
The crew completed the install in two working days. Day one covered post setting, framing, and attaching the structure to the house. Day two finished with the insulated roof panels, trim, and site cleanup.
We wrapped and invoiced the project on June 16, 2023. The homeowner walked away with a shaded, low-maintenance patio ready for the hottest part of the year.
We built an insulated aluminum patio cover over an existing concrete pad in Anderson Mill, turning a sun-baked back slab into a cool, usable outdoor room in two days.
The back patio already had a solid concrete slab. But it sat fully exposed to the afternoon sun, which made it too hot to use for most of the year.
The homeowner wanted shade without a full remodel. A cover over the existing pad was the fastest, cleanest path.
The existing concrete pad was in good shape, which saved real time and money. We checked the slab for cracks, slope, and thickness before committing to an attachment plan. Anderson Mill sits on Central Texas limestone soil, and older slabs can shift or heave over time. This one had settled evenly with no major cracking, so it made a solid, stable base for the cover posts. That single finding is why we could skip pouring new concrete and go straight to the install.
We installed a Renaissance Patio insulated aluminum cover. The insulated roof panels have a foam core, so they block heat far better than a thin metal awning or an open wood pergola.
Wood was an easy no. It warps, splits, and rots in our humidity, and it draws termites near limestone soil. Powder-coated aluminum won't rust, won't fade fast in the sun, and it laughs off the hail that rolls through Central Texas most springs. The insulated panels also cut down the drumming noise you'd get from rain on a hollow metal roof. That comfort detail is one most homeowners don't think about until they're sitting under a bare aluminum awning during a storm.
The crew set the posts, framed the structure, and locked in the insulated panels over two working days. Because the concrete was already there, we skipped the longest part of most patio jobs.
The homeowner got a shaded outdoor space that stays usable through Austin's hottest months. The cover ties into the existing slab cleanly and needs no ongoing upkeep.
If you're planning other exterior upgrades down the line, this same crew handles decking and gutters too. Pairing a cover with proper drainage is a smart move on our clay-heavy soils.
This one took two days. When the concrete is already poured and sound, most of the timeline disappears, since we don't wait on curing.
Aluminum won't rot, warp, or feed termites, and the insulated panels block the heat a wood pergola lets right through. It's built for 100-degree summers and spring hail with zero yearly maintenance.
This job fell in the $5,000–$10,000 range. Final pricing depends on cover size, panel type, and attachment details for your specific home.
Yes. We inspect for cracks, slope, and stability first, because Central Texas limestone soil can shift older pads and affect how the posts anchor.
