New Renaissance Patio Fresco Aluminum Cover Installation | Custom Poured Concrete Slab Foundation
This Cherry Creek project added a new Renaissance Patio cover built on the Fresco Model system. Our crew poured a new concrete slab first, then set the aluminum structure to shade the outdoor space. Aluminum was the right pick here because it shrugs off 100-degree heat, hail, and cedar pollen without warping or rot. The finished patio cover gives this Austin homeowner a cool, low-maintenance spot that will last for decades.

The homeowner reached out to us as a customer referral, and the lead came in on Jan 16, 2024. They wanted a real patio cover for the backyard, not a quick fix. Our first talk focused on shade, durability, and how the space would hold up to Austin summers.
We moved to the prospect stage on Jan 18, 2024, after visiting the Cherry Creek property. On site, we saw there was no slab solid enough to anchor a permanent cover. The limestone-heavy soil in 78745 confirmed we'd need a new poured foundation before any structure went up.
The homeowner approved the project on Jan 19, 2024. We laid out the Renaissance Patio Fresco Model, selected the insulated aluminum panels, and scheduled the concrete pour with ATX Barrera's Concrete. Material orders went through Lansing Building Products and ABC Supply Co.
Installation ran across multiple days leading up to Feb 20, 2024. The crew removed the existing patio cover roof section, poured and cured the new slab, then anchored the Fresco structure into the concrete. Insulated panels were fitted and sealed to the home last.
We completed and invoiced the job on Feb 20, 2024, then closed it out on Mar 7, 2024. The final walkthrough confirmed a level, well-drained slab and a fully sealed cover. The homeowner was left with a low-maintenance shaded space built for Central Texas weather.
We built a brand-new patio cover for a home in Cherry Creek, Austin, TX, using the Renaissance Patio Fresco system on a freshly poured concrete slab. The homeowner now has a shaded, all-season outdoor room that stands up to the local heat.
The backyard had no real shade and no proper foundation for a cover. The homeowner wanted a usable outdoor space that could handle Austin's long, hot season without constant upkeep.
The first thing we confirmed on site was that we couldn't just set posts and go. The ground in this part of 78745 sits over limestone-heavy soil that shifts and drains poorly. That matters for a patio cover, because posts need a stable, level base or the whole structure racks over time. So we planned a new concrete slab from the start rather than trying to work off patchy old paving. That single decision is what a lot of homeowners get wrong when they price a cover cheap and skip the foundation.
We installed the Renaissance Patio Fresco Model, an insulated aluminum cover. Aluminum was the clear choice for this Austin backyard.
Here is the reasoning. Central Texas throws everything at an outdoor structure: 100-degree-plus afternoons, spring hail, and thick cedar pollen every winter. Wood swells and cracks under that cycle, and it needs sealing every couple of years. Aluminum does not rot, does not feed termites, and rinses clean when the pollen coats it. The Fresco panels also carry an insulated core, so the space underneath stays noticeably cooler than a bare metal roof would. That means the homeowner gets shade that actually feels comfortable in July.
This was a multi-day build, not a one-afternoon job. We removed and replaced the existing patio cover roof section, then set the new Fresco structure once the slab was ready.
The homeowner ended up with a solid, shaded outdoor room that needs almost no maintenance. It handles sun, storms, and pollen season without complaint.
We approved the job on Jan 19, 2024, and finished the build on Feb 20, 2024. The on-site work ran across multiple days because we poured and cured a new slab before setting the cover.
Aluminum stands up to the heat, hail, and cedar pollen that wear wood down here. It never needs staining or sealing, and it won't rot or attract termites the way lumber does.
This build fell in the $20,000–$25,000 range. That figure reflects a full new concrete slab plus the Renaissance Fresco cover, not just a roof swap.
