Screened-In Renaissance Moderno Aluminum Patio Cover | Custom Privacy Wall Built for Central Texas Heat
This Austin project added a Renaissance Moderno aluminum patio cover with a 20-foot width and 14-foot projection. We chose the Renaissance Patio line because aluminum shrugs off 100-degree summers without warping or fading. The build was screened in with a privacy wall for shade, comfort, and separation from neighbors. The finished cover turned an exposed slab into a usable outdoor room year-round.

The homeowner first reached out on October 27, 2023, through a Renaissance Patio lead. The early conversation focused on turning an exposed back slab into a usable, shaded outdoor space with privacy on one side.
By November 2, 2023, we had moved the project into the prospect stage. We reviewed the existing slab, confirmed it could carry a 22-by-15-foot roof, and mapped out post locations around the limestone-heavy soil common in this part of Austin.
The project was approved on November 8, 2023. We finalized the Renaissance Moderno aluminum selection, set the 20-foot width and 14-foot projection, and locked in the screen enclosure with a privacy wall before ordering the engineered kit.
Installation happened on July 3, 2024. The crew set and leveled the posts, assembled the Moderno roof panels, installed the screen system, and framed the privacy wall — all in a single day.
The project was completed the same day, July 3, 2024, and closed out on July 22, 2024. The finished cover gave the homeowner a screened, private outdoor room that handles Central Texas heat with minimal upkeep.
We built a screened-in Renaissance Moderno aluminum patio cover in Austin, TX, turning a bare back slab into a shaded, private outdoor room. The finished structure spans 22 feet wide by 15 feet deep and stands up to Central Texas heat with zero warping.
The back patio was a wide-open slab with no shade. In a place where summer highs sit above 100 degrees for weeks, that slab was unusable most of the day.
The homeowner wanted a real outdoor room, not just a roof. That meant shade, screens to keep bugs out, and a privacy wall to block the neighbor's sightline.
Central Texas soil throws a curve at anything you anchor to the ground. The limestone-heavy ground around Spicewood shifts and shrinks through the dry season, so footing placement matters more here than in most markets. We checked the slab and set the post locations to carry the load of a 22-by-15-foot roof without stressing the existing concrete. We also planned the screen and privacy wall framing early, since retrofitting those later never looks as clean. Getting the layout right on paper saved us from surprises on install day.
We went with the Renaissance Moderno aluminum cover for a simple reason: aluminum doesn't care about Texas heat. Wood covers swell, crack, and fade under our sun, and they need constant repainting.
Aluminum stays flat and holds its finish for decades. The Moderno line also gives a clean, modern roofline that fit this home's look.
The crew handled the full build in a single day on July 3, 2024. Fast, but not rushed — a Renaissance Moderno cover ships as an engineered kit, so most of the precision happens before we ever arrive.
The homeowner got a shaded, screened outdoor room that works from spring through fall. No bugs, no glare, and a private corner that feels separate from the yard.
Best of all, it needs almost no upkeep. An occasional rinse to clear cedar pollen is about all the aluminum ever asks for.
Aluminum covers like the Moderno line are built to last decades here. Unlike wood, they won't rot, warp, or need repainting after a few hot summers.
Wood looks great on day one but fights our climate constantly. Aluminum holds its shape and finish through 100-degree heat, hail, and dust with far less maintenance.
This screened-in build with a privacy wall fell in the $25,000–$30,000 range. Size, screening, and custom features like the privacy wall all shift that number.
The build itself went up in one day. The longer part is planning and ordering the engineered kit, which we lock in well before install day.
