Alumawood is the leading all-aluminum patio cover system on the market. Here in Los Angeles, I'd say that the majority of work we do is aluminum.  Specifically, Alumawood. Over the years, our company has gone from installing over 80% wood patio covers in Los Angeles to now, 90% aluminum patio covers throughout Los Angeles.

Why the switch you ask? If I had to guess, my money would be on the fact that aluminum patio covers are virtually maintenance-free. You heard that correct. no maintenance. No painting, wood rot, or termites.

I mean if you're going to spend a few bucks on what is supposed to be a fairly permanent fixture in your back yard... you may as well install a patio cover that you don't have to worry about every 3 years.

Alumawood is just that product. Whether you're in the market for a fully covered patio cover, a lattice, or a combination patio cover... we have exactly what you're looking for.

WOOD PATIO COVERS

What can we add that hasn't already been said about wood patio covers? The wood patio cover is beautiful, timeless, and predictable. For many of you, I'm sure predictable isn't a word that you might use to describe the wood patio cover. Allow me to explain.

Here in Los Angeles, there are many different zoning, code, and even HOA requirements. An aluminum patio cover is pre-engineered and with a few exceptions can only be installed in one way. Whereas the wood patio covers are easily modifiable to accommodate any engineering condition, any HOA requirement, or zoning standard.

This is mainly due to the fact that aluminum patio covers come in only a handful of material sizes. Wood patio covers, on the other hand, are available in just about any size of wood imaginable. And if it's not? it can be custom made. Of course, custom lumber comes with a price.

Wood patio covers have one more advantage over its aluminum counterpart. That is... it can be painted in almost any color you can think of.  In comparison, the Alumawood patio cover is only available in seven different colorways. Learn More
