Close It In

Patio & Screen Enclosures

A patio cover keeps rain and sun off an outdoor space but leaves the sides open. A patio enclosure goes a step further — it closes in the sides with screens, glass, or vinyl panels, turning the covered area into a true three-season (or year-round) room. We build both, and on most jobs the two are the same conversation: cover the top, then decide how much of the perimeter to close in.

Screen enclosures attach directly to an existing or new patio cover's structural posts and fill the open sides with framed aluminum screen panels. This is the most common enclosure upgrade we install — it keeps out mosquitoes, leaves, and wind-blown debris while preserving airflow and the open feel of an outdoor room.

Glass and vinyl enclosures go a step further for homeowners who want to use the space in cooler months. Vinyl panels are typically removed and stored for summer, while tempered-glass systems can stay in year-round and still slide open on warm days. Both options extend usable outdoor living from early spring through late fall, and with supplemental heat, through winter.

Enclosure TypeTypical SizePrice Range (add-on to a cover)
Aluminum screen enclosure12×16 ft$3,500–$7,000
Vinyl panel enclosure12×16 ft$5,000–$9,000
Sliding glass enclosure12×16 ft$9,000–$16,000

Enclosure pricing is in addition to the patio cover structure itself — most customers cover first, then enclose either at the same time or as a later phase. If you mainly want shade and rain protection with the space staying open to the yard, a patio cover on its own is the right call; if bugs, wind, or extending the usable season matter more, add a screen or glass enclosure. We walk through both options during the free in-home consultation.

FAQ

Patio Cover & Enclosure Questions

A pergola has open rafters that provide partial shade and define the space — they're primarily architectural and partially shade the area beneath. A patio cover has a solid or adjustable roof that provides full weather protection. If you want to use your outdoor space in rain, you need a patio cover.

The patio cover they installed has completely changed how we use our backyard. Even in the rain we're outside now. Worth every penny.

Tony's crew installed our motorized awning in one day. No mess, no drama, and the awning works perfectly. We use it every single day now.

Had our pergola installed last spring. The cedar quality is exceptional and the craftsmanship is top-notch. The same crew showed up each day — huge deal.
