Transform Your Backyard with Custom Pool Patio Covers in San Antonio

Structural Addition

At D. Michael Designs, we build our covered patios as a structural addition to your home. We frame, engineer, and permit our covered patios to match your home.

Match Your Home

By attaching your patio cover to your home, we can match your roofline, exterior cladding, and soffit—allowing your new addition to blend in with your current home.

Many Options

Whether you want an attached or freestanding patio cover, D. Michael Designs can build you a pergola, pool house, cabana, outdoor kitchen, screened structure, or enclosed patio. It all depends on what you want to use your outdoor space for.

Add Outdoor Living

We can rough in lights and ceiling fans to your covered patio. If you would like to add an outdoor kitchen, we can run gas lines, electrical, plumbing, cabinetry, and built-ins.

Permits

1. Michael Designs will pull any needed permits for your project and schedule any necessary inspections with the city. As the general contractor, we will manage the structure, trades, and finish work.

Texas Weather

We know what Texas weather can do to your home and outdoor space. When designing your pool patio cover, we take this into consideration: heat, UV rays, rain, and wind load.

Pool Patio Covers

A pool patio cover can be more than just covering your existing patio. At D. Michael Designs, we can build you many different options to fit your outdoor space.

Attached Patio Covers

An attached patio cover will attach to your home. We can design your patio cover to match your home's roofline. There are many roof options we can build for you. Gabled, shed, and hip roofs are some examples.

Freestanding Patio Covers & Pergolas

If you don't want to attach your patio cover to your home, we can build you a freestanding structure over your pool deck, outdoor dining area, or anywhere else you may want shade. We can build you a solid roof, open top, or louvered structure.

Pool Houses & Cabanas

A pool house can be built as a freestanding structure with its own foundation, framing, roof, electrical, and, if desired, plumbing. We can build you a pool house that you can use as a guest suite, entertainment area, gym, cabana, or to store pool equipment.

Outdoor Kitchen

We can build you an outdoor kitchen under your covered patio. Run electrical, plumbing, gas lines, cabinetry, and built-ins to your outdoor kitchen.

Lights & Ceiling Fans

We can rough in electrical to your covered patio for lights and ceiling fans. Recessed lights, pendants, and ceiling fans can be added.

Screened & Enclosed Patios

If you want to keep bugs and debris out of your outdoor space, we can build you a screened structure. We can screen your existing patio slab or build you a fully framed screen room.

How We Build Your Pool Patio Cover

1. Evaluate your outdoor space: What do you want to use your covered area for? How will it tie into your home, pool, patio, and yard?
2. Plan your structure: Where will your structure be located? How will it tie into your home? What roof will you want? What will you use your outdoor space for? We will also consider Texas weather when building your structure.
3. Permits: D. Michael Designs will pull any necessary permits for your project and schedule any needed inspections with the city.
4. Build your structure: Depending on your project, we can build you a structural frame, roof, exterior cladding, electrical, plumbing, and outdoor kitchen.
