On this page
Most prices you see for a covered patio do not say what job they are for. Ours does. This page shows what is inside our covered patio range, how it differs from the other outdoor living spaces we build, and what we set at the walk-through.
- A covered patio is one range: $25,000 to $75,000.
- That range covers three things: the concrete, the electrical, and a finished ceiling.
- A bare pergola is $15,000 to $30,000. It has no concrete, no electrical and no finished ceiling.
- A concrete patio alone is $10,000 to $25,000. Do not add it to the covered patio range. The concrete is already inside.
- Anything beyond these scopes is set at the free walk-through.
Three outdoor jobs, three prices
These three jobs get mixed up all the time. They are not the same work, and they do not have the same price.
| The job | Our price |
|---|---|
| Covered patio: concrete, electrical and a finished ceiling | $25,000 to $75,000 |
| Bare pergola: no cover, no concrete, no electrical, no finished ceiling | $15,000 to $30,000 |
| Concrete patio alone, with nothing over it | $10,000 to $25,000 |
| Anything beyond these scopes | Set at the free walk-through |
What is inside the covered patio range
Our covered patio price is for a complete job with three parts.
- The concrete. This is the slab the patio sits on. We do all concrete work, including pours and repours.
- The electrical. This is the power the covered space needs.
- A finished ceiling. You look up at a finished surface under the cover, not at bare framing.
That is the scope behind the number. When you compare our price with another price, ask what that other price leaves out.
Why the range is wide
Covered patios are not all the same size, and each of the three parts can be small or large. That is why the range runs from $25,000 to $75,000.
We do not quote by floor area. Your number comes from a walk-through of your yard and your house.
A pergola is a different job
A pergola is an open frame. It gives some shade. It is not a roof.
Our bare pergola runs $15,000 to $30,000. That price has no concrete, no electrical and no finished ceiling. If you want those three things, you are pricing a covered patio, not a pergola.
Concrete alone
If you only want a slab to put chairs on, that is concrete work. Our driveway and patio concrete runs $10,000 to $25,000. Read our concrete patio cost guide for that job.
Do not add the concrete price to the covered patio price. The concrete is already inside the covered patio range.
What is beyond these scopes
Our outdoor living work as a whole runs $25,000 to $100,000. A covered patio and a bare pergola are the two outdoor living scopes we print a price for.
Anything beyond them is set at the free walk-through. We do not print a price for those parts, because a number with no scope behind it helps no one.

What is not in the number, and how to get yours

- Changes after you sign. A change order is priced at cost plus 25%.
The real number comes from a free walk-through. The quote we write from it is good for 30 days. Our typical start is one to two weeks out, depending on our schedule. Our own in-house crew does the work, Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., plus about two or three Saturdays a month.
Every job carries a written warranty with two terms: three years on everything we touch, and five years on our workmanship. Manufacturer warranties on materials pass through to you. To set a walk-through, call or text 817-210-7117.
