Insulated panels keep the patio cooler in a 96-degree July and stand up better to hail than thin metal. They also give you a base to add screens or glass later.

A pergola gives a Paradise backyard filtered shade and a defined outdoor space. Louvers let you open the roof on a mild evening or close it when the sun is strong.

A screened enclosure keeps mosquitoes and flies out and lets the breeze in. It turns a covered slab into a porch the family can use every warm evening.

A sunroom gives a 1980s home a bright, glass-walled room. Wise County’s clay subsoils can move, so we check the slab and footings before building walls.

An all-season room has insulated walls, roof and glass and can share your heating and cooling. It stays comfortable through a 33-degree January low and July heat.
For a Paradise home built around 1985, a solid or insulated patio cover is usually the best first project, because it adds shade and storm protection to a slab that may never have been covered. An insulated patio roof also makes it easy to add screens or glass later. With 84 percent of homes owner-occupied, many families plan in stages: cover first, then a screen enclosure or a sunroom when they are ready. We map out those stages at the estimate.
A Paradise homeowner should choose an all-season room for year-round use, and a sunroom for spring, fall and mild winter weather. Wise County averages a 33-degree January low and a 96-degree July high, and a standard sunroom will feel both. An insulated four-season room connects to your heating and cooling and stays comfortable most of the year. A standard sunroom is a simpler build and makes a good plant room or reading spot. You can see examples on our sunroom gallery.
Hail around Paradise is frequent and can be large. The NOAA Storm Events Database lists 67 hail reports in Wise County from 2021 through 2025, 57 of them an inch or larger, with stones up to 4.5 inches. May, April and February had the most reports, and the county also recorded 35 thunderstorm wind reports and 5 tornado reports. We build covers to local wind and load rules, anchor posts in proper footings and use roof panels that resist dents. No roof is hail-proof, but a strong one protects what is underneath.
A small-town lot in Paradise means the cover has to suit the house, the yard and the way water drains across the lot. The town has 190 households on about 2.1 square miles, so most projects are on established lots with existing slabs. We measure distances to fences and property lines, check which way the patio faces and plan where roof water will go. In Wise County’s central soils, waxy surface soil sits over deep red clay, so keeping water away from the foundation matters.
The crew that serves Paradise is based in Fort Worth, about 31 miles away, which is a regular drive for us. After the free estimate and your approval, we file the permit, order materials and set a start date. The crew arrives with what each stage needs, sets footings, frames the structure and installs the roof, then cleans up. We keep you updated if weather moves a step. After final inspection, we walk the finished project with you. Questions on payment options are answered on our financing page.
Paradise has 190 households, and 84 percent are owner-occupied. The median home was built in 1985, so windows and patio doors are approaching 40 years old and may be due for replacement. With so many homes owner-occupied, a covered patio or sunroom is usually planned as a long-term addition.
Paradise is in Wise County, which spans the Eastern Grand Prairie and Western Cross Timbers at an average elevation of 800 feet. Central parts of the county have flat to undulating ground with waxy, light-colored soil over deep red clay. The county averages 29 inches of rain a year, with Lake Bridgeport and Eagle Mountain Lake both inside its lines.

If your Paradise property is inside the city limits, the city reviews the permit, and outside the limits Wise County does. We confirm which and file the paperwork.
Which office reviews the job depends on whether your address is inside the City of Paradise or in unincorporated Wise County. We confirm that at the estimate and file the paperwork ourselves.
Our DFW permit guide covers the rest, including how an HOA submittal fits in.

Yes. Wise County soils include sandy loam, waxy surface soil and loam over clay, and clay moves as it wets and dries. We check the slab, plan post footings where needed and send roof water away from the house so the cover stays true.

“I had a patio cover installed. They first said the work would begin about six weeks out but to my surprise it began three weeks out. Jim was my installer and he went above and beyond to ensure I had a strong and properly supported patio cover built. Very pleased with the result and received a very favorable and fair price.”
