How much hail should a San Angelo patio cover be built for?

A San Angelo patio cover should be built for serious hail. The NOAA Storm Events Database shows 107 hail reports in Tom Green County from 2021 through 2025, with 102 at an inch or larger and a largest size of 4 inches. May, March and April were the busiest months. The county also logged 81 thunderstorm wind reports, three tornado reports and 61 flood reports. We use solid roof panels and anchor every covered patio to the house and footings. No roof is hail-proof, but this keeps people and furniture far safer.

Insulated cover or pergola for San Angelo summers?

For San Angelo summers, an insulated cover keeps a patio far cooler than a pergola. Tom Green County’s July average is 97 degrees, and with 18.2 inches of precipitation a year, most summer days are clear and sunny. An insulated cover option blocks both the sun and the heat soaking through the roof. A louvered pergola gives adjustable shade and an open look, which works best for evenings. In a county with this much hail, a solid roof also protects the patio and furniture better than open louvers.

What do San Angelo homes built around 1977 need?

San Angelo homes built around 1977, the median year, often need windows, siding or doors along with patio work. Of 38,833 households, 63 percent own their homes. Original windows from that era are often aluminum or early double-pane, and hail can chip siding over the years. We install Andersen replacement windows, fiber cement siding from James Hardie, vinyl siding, and new doors. Replacing worn siding before a cover attaches gives the new roof a sound wall to hang on, and it saves opening up the work later.

How does San Angelo’s soil affect footings for a cover or sunroom?

San Angelo’s soil affects footings because Tom Green County’s main soils are silty clay loams and stony clays. Clay can swell and shrink with moisture, and stony ground can make digging harder. The county’s minerals include caliche and limestone, which can sit close to the surface. We check the slab for cracks and level, decide whether posts need their own footings and plan gutters so roof water stays away from the foundation. The written estimate covers all of it, so the footings are planned before anyone starts digging, even across a city of about 60 square miles.

How far does the crew travel to San Angelo?

The crew that serves San Angelo is based near Clyde, about 87 miles away. Because of that distance, we set estimate visits ahead of time and plan the build as a scheduled trip. Call (469) 949-5909 or book online and choose a time. At the visit we measure, check the slab and roofline, and give you a written estimate. The Arlington office handles permits, ordering and the build schedule. Looking through the sunroom gallery before the visit helps us understand what you want.

How much attic insulation does a San Angelo home need?

A San Angelo home with an uninsulated attic needs about R-49, or R-38 if it already has 3 to 4 inches. Those are the ENERGY STAR recommendations for climate zone 3, and Tom Green County is in zone 3B, a warm, dry climate. Homes from around 1977 often have insulation that has settled. We install blown-in attic insulation to bring a thin attic up to depth, and radiant barrier where roof heat is the main problem. We can check the attic during a patio estimate, so it does not take a second visit.
