A solid patio cover turns a bare Greenville slab into shaded space you can use through the summer. We attach it to a 1970s or newer roofline only after checking the framing.

Insulated covers keep heat off the patio and make rain and hail far quieter underneath. They also give a clean ceiling with wiring for fans and lights.

A pergola works over a deck, a slab or an open spot in a Greenville yard. Louvered roofs can be closed against the sun and opened for evening air.

A screened enclosure keeps out mosquitoes, flies and windblown leaves while letting the breeze in. Hunt County’s humid summers make it one of the most-used rooms in the house.

A sunroom gives Greenville homeowners a glass-walled room that fills with light. Footings and slab are planned for the county’s clay soils before walls go up.

An all-season room is fully insulated and can tie into the home’s heating and cooling. It stays usable from a 33-degree January morning to a 93-degree July afternoon.
In Greenville, a screen room is the better choice if you want open air without insects, and a sunroom is better if you want a room you can close up. Hunt County’s 43 inches of yearly rain and humid summers keep mosquitoes around for much of the year, which is why so many families start with screens. A screened enclosure is the simplest to add under an existing solid roof. A glass sunroom gives you more months of use. We show both on your own patio at the free estimate.
An all-season room makes sense in Greenville when you want to use the space in January and July, not only in spring and fall. Hunt County averages a 33-degree low in January and a 93-degree high in July. An insulated all-season room has insulated walls, roof and glass and can share your home’s heating and cooling. For many 1970s houses in town, it works almost like a small addition. If you mainly want a bright place for coffee or plants, a standard sunroom may be enough.
Greenville’s clay soil affects a patio cover or sunroom by moving the slab and footings as it gets wet and dries out. Hunt County’s bottomland soils are clay, and the uplands are loamy or clayey and loamy. A structure attached to the house has to allow for that movement, and walls of glass need a stable base. We check the existing slab for cracks and level, plan new footings where needed, and send roof water away from the foundation. It is a short conversation at the estimate that saves trouble later.
On a Greenville home built around 1978, it often makes sense to replace the back door and some windows when you add a patio project. A new cover changes how light and heat reach that wall, and an old slider that leaks air becomes more obvious once the patio is in use. We install entry and patio doors and Andersen replacement windows, and we check the opening first so the door does not stick on a shifting frame. With 52 percent of Greenville homes owner-occupied, many families plan these jobs together.
Many Greenville attics need more insulation, especially in homes built around 1978 that still have their original layer. Hunt County is in climate zone 3A, and ENERGY STAR recommends R-49 for an uninsulated attic there, or R-38 if 3 to 4 inches are already in place. We install blown-in insulation to bring a thin attic up to that level. An attic check takes a few minutes during the patio estimate, and we tell you honestly if yours is already in good shape.
Visits in Greenville’s 75401 and 75402 ZIP codes are set by phone or online at a time that works for your household. The crew that does the building is based near Bonham, about 31 miles away. At the visit, a specialist measures, looks at the slab and roofline and goes over options with you, then leaves a written estimate. If you go ahead, we handle drawings and the permit, set an install date and keep you updated. Questions about payments can be covered through our financing page or at the visit.
Greenville has 11,299 households, and 52 percent of its homes are owner-occupied. The median home was built in 1978, so many houses are on their original or second set of windows and doors. Siding on the sunny side may be faded or cracked, and a patio cover is a good moment to plan all of it together.
Greenville sits on Hunt County’s stretch of the Blackland Prairie, a plain of shallow stream valleys and rounded drainage divides. Most of the county drains to the Sabine, with the Sulphur River in the northeast. Bottomland soils are clay, uplands are loamy or clayey and loamy, and rain averages 43 inches a year.

Most Greenville addresses are permitted by the city, but property outside the city limits goes through Hunt County. We confirm which applies at the estimate and file the paperwork.
Which office reviews the job depends on whether your address is inside the City of Greenville or in unincorporated Hunt County. We confirm that at the estimate and file the paperwork ourselves.
Our permit guide covers the rest, including how an HOA submittal fits in.
Yes, in most cases. A new roof or enclosed room usually needs one. Inside Greenville city limits the city reviews it, and outside the limits Hunt County does. American Eagle Builders confirms which office applies at your estimate and files everything for you.
Size, the roof system, insulation, footings for clay soil, how the cover ties into your roofline, and add-ons like fans, lights or screens. We do not post flat numbers. We measure at a free in-home visit and give you a firm written estimate so there are no surprises.
It can if the posts, beam and roof are strong enough and the slab is reasonably level. We check that at the estimate. If the existing cover cannot carry screen walls, we explain why and offer a cover built from the start to be enclosed.
Yes. American Eagle Builders offers financing programs for a range of credit levels on patio covers, sunrooms, windows, siding, doors and insulation. Ask at your free estimate and we will walk you through what is available once you have the written number in hand.
Yes. Hunt County has clay bottomland soils and loamy or clayey uplands, and clay shifts as it wets and dries. A sunroom needs a stable slab and footings, so we check yours and plan drainage before any walls go up.
