Serving Los Angeles and Ventura Counties

Patiocovered is a Local Los Angeles company based out of Santa Clarita. We offer an affordable alternative to traditional wood patio covers called, Alumawood.

Aluminum has come a long way since the days of old. Today, we can see that this material looks and feels like real genuine wood with its textured wood grain finish look. For more than 50 years, Amerimax has been an industry leader and has built a solid reputation for reliability, comfort, and style.

Alumawood is perfect for those of you who do not have time to deal with the maintenance and repair of wood covers. Furthermore, Aluminum patio covers structures don’t need to be painted as they don’t crack, peel warp or rot and that is perfect for this Los Angeles heat.

Termites Hate Aluminum Patio Covers

Aluminum (Alumawood) covered patio products are insect resistant. In other words, unlike wood patio covers, termites hate aluminum pergola-covered patios. Choosing aluminum means never again will you have to succumb to the costs associated with the replacement of rafters, shade bars, beams or posts due to termites.

Important to realize is that Alumawood never needs to be painted. How many summer hours have you spent scraping and painting that old tired-out cover? How much money have you spent trying to maintain your 30-year-old pergola cover in this Southern California Heat?

The Alumawood patio cover can be provided as an attached or detached structure. Depending on your needs, you can choose from a shade bar type, pergola cover or a fully covered roof structure.

Aluminum Covered Patios can Cost Less Than Wooden Covers

patio covers and decks in Los Angeles
In the event, you didn’t read that headline correctly let me repeat this… in most cases depending on the product comparison, Alumawood products are historically much less than the traditional wooden covered patio here in the Los Angeles area.

Surprisingly, aluminum covered patios are in fact less than wood.Patiocovered
Surprisingly, aluminum covered patios are in fact less than wood. We offer a FREE Patio Cover Price calculator to help differentiate the costs of patio covers here in Santa Clarita or Los Angeles and beyond.

First of all, there is a huge difference in material costs. Dollar for dollar, wood is much more expensive than Alumawood here in the greater LA area.

Second of all, labor. Alumawood patio covers in most cases can be installed in just a few days whereas wood covers can and do, take many days to install and finish.

Lastly, let’s not forget the attachment. With wood covers, in order to comply with local building codes, we MUST always dig footings to install this system. Not with the Alumawood covers, however. Alumawood patio covers must be attached to an existing concrete slab unless of course, engineering requires a footing.


Understand, however, that aluminum patio covers are by no means “cheap’. We install the Alumawood product in homes throughout Los Angeles including areas such as Beverly Hills.

Alumawood Laguna Lattice Patio Cover

The Alumawood Aluminum Lattice patio structure looks very much like genuine wood. In fact, when compared side by side with wood it’s virtually impossible to separate the Alumawood cover from the wood cover. The best part is the price and “lack” of maintenance with the Aluminum patio cover vs. wood.

With wood, you first of all, pay more form material and then you have to “maintain” the material annually which requires caulking and paint depending on the area. Hence, you should expect that with wood, you eventually have to replace components if not the entire system because it WILL rot. “To heck you say”?! “Are you saying that wood will in time deteriorate in front of my very eyes”? “Yes, to heck I do say. It will absolutely rot and eventually turn to dust”.


Opposite this catastrophic nightmare, is Alumawood Aluminum patio covers. Rather than going down a list of maintenance you will NOT be performing, I will make a list of items you WILL be performing. Ready?

  • Wash the patio cover.

That is correct. You need only wash the cover just as you would a car, (providing you do wash your car).

Patio Covers Wood

Local wood patio covers

Not only do we provide beautiful aluminum patio covers, but we also build beautiful wood patio covers right here in Los Angeles. Wood patio covers are beautiful. Aside from the fact that the wood is much more in the way of maintenance than the Aluminum covers, wood possesses a sense of timelessness that aluminum might lack. Wooden patio covers come in an almost infinite number of possible dimensions. Conversely, engineering restrictions are the only things that limit the Alumawood covers.


Los Angeles wood patio covers are available in roofed and lattice or pergola patio covers. Furthermore, the endless possibilities of lumber sizes, types of lumber and colors are all options when considering a wood patio cover.

How do you identify a Pergola cover or lattice patio cover? Easy, it’s the cover without a solid roof. These nifty little items are installed perpendicular to the rafters close together, in order to shade out the sunlight just enough that you can sit comfortably under the cover and not get sunburned.


These wood shade bars come in four sizes, 2×2, 2×3, 3×3 and 4×4 so chances are we have a size that fits your choice of cover. That’s not to say we cant install bigger lumber up there. I mean, so long as the cover can support it… we’ll put logs on top of your cover for you.
