A roof over the patio that matches the pitch and trim of a mid-century house, anchored for county storms that have dropped hail up to 3 inches across.

Insulated roof panels cut the heat coming through on a 96-degree July afternoon and quiet the drumming of a hard rain. A smart base if you might enclose the patio later.

A pergola gives a Coleman backyard shade that moves with the sun and keeps the open-air feel. Louvered roofs can close for a passing shower and open again for the evening.

Screen walls and a screen door turn the patio into a bug-free porch for warm evenings, with pet-resistant mesh available. Most sit under a solid or insulated roof.

A glass-walled room built onto an older home needs a slab and wall connection that fit what is already there. We check both before planning the walls.

Insulated walls, glass and roof make a room for a 34-degree January morning as well as a July afternoon, and it can share the home’s heating and cooling.
For Coleman’s afternoon sun, an insulated patio cover blocks far more heat than a pergola. Coleman County’s mean July high is 96 degrees, and a foam-core roof keeps the slab and the air under it noticeably cooler. A pergola filters the light rather than stopping it, which suits a patio used mainly in the morning or evening. If you want the open look with more control, a louvered pergola lets you close the roof at midday. We look at which way your patio faces before suggesting either.
In Coleman, an all-season room is the choice if you want to use the space every month, and a sunroom is enough if spring and fall are what you are after. The county’s mean January low is 34 degrees and its mean July high is 96, so a room without insulated walls and glazing will be cold some mornings and hot some afternoons. An all-season sunroom can be tied into the home’s heating and cooling. A standard glass sunroom costs less to build and still keeps out wind and insects.
A Coleman home built around 1959, the town’s median year, usually needs attention to its windows, siding and doors as much as its patio. Of 1,580 households, 71 percent own their homes, and many are living with original single-pane glass or siding that has been patched more than once. We install Andersen replacement windows, James Hardie and vinyl siding, and new entry and patio doors. When a patio cover is planned at the same time, the wall it attaches to can be repaired first instead of after.
A Coleman patio cover should be built with hail and wind in mind. The NOAA Storm Events Database logged 50 hail reports in Coleman County from 2021 through 2025, and 48 were an inch or larger, with the biggest at 3 inches. The heaviest months were May, June and April. The county also had 14 thunderstorm wind reports, one tornado report and four flood reports. We anchor covers to the house and footings so wind cannot work them loose, and a solid roof sheds hail much better than an open frame.
A Coleman attic with little or no insulation should be brought up to about R-49. That is the ENERGY STAR recommendation for an uninsulated attic in climate zone 3, which includes Coleman County’s zone 3B; if 3 to 4 inches are already there, the target is R-38. Many older homes were built with far less, and the shortfall shows up in summer cooling. We install blown-in attic insulation when the attic is simply thin, and we can check it during the same visit as a patio estimate.
A Coleman project starts with a free visit from the crew based near Clyde, about 40 miles out. We measure, discuss options and leave a written estimate. If you approve it, we confirm whether the address is inside Coleman’s city limits or in the county, draw the plans and file the permit. Materials are ordered, footings and posts go in, and the roof or walls follow. The work ends with the final inspection and a walkthrough with you. You can reach the office at (469) 949-5909 at any point.
The census counts 1,580 households in Coleman, 71 percent of them owner-occupied, and the median home was built in 1959. Houses from that era often still have original or early replacement windows, aging siding and doors that have settled. A patio project is a good time to look at all three, since the cover attaches to the same wall.
Coleman County lies where the Edwards Plateau meets the Rolling Plains, and it shares traits of both. Peaks such as Jim Ned Peak and Chandlers Peak rise in the north, and the Santa Anna Mountains and Speck Mountain in the south. The county records 26.82 inches of rain in an average year, with a mean January low of 34 degrees and a mean July high of 96.

Which office reviews the job depends on whether your address is inside the City of Coleman or in unincorporated Coleman County. We confirm that at the estimate and file the paperwork ourselves.

The size of the room, whether it is a sunroom or a fully insulated all-season room, the condition of the slab, the wall it attaches to and any heating and cooling tie-in.
