1. What materials are used in the construction of patio covers?


Our patio covers are designed with durability in mind, featuring frameworks made from powder-coated aluminium and roof panels constructed from 8mm twin-wall polycarbonate, ensuring longevity and weather resistance.


2. Do I need a permit to install a patio cover?


Generally, patio covers do not require permits as they are non-enclosed structures. However, it's always best to check with your local council to ensure you meet all regulations and compliance requirements.


3. How do I determine the right size for my patio cover?


Measure the length and width of your intended area. Our patio covers are adaptable; if your deck is smaller than the cover, the posts can be adjusted to fit, though this may alter the overall height.


4. What is the installation time for a patio cover?


Installation times can vary based on the size of the patio cover but generally range from 2 to 4 hours. We provide detailed installation manuals to guide you through the process.


5. Can I install a patio cover myself, or should I hire a professional?


Yes, you can install our patio covers yourself as they come with comprehensive instructions and all necessary fixings. For those who prefer professional installation, local companies like Sure Assembly and Kitset Assembly Service are available.


6. What if the standard sizes are too large for my space?


If your space is limited, our patio covers can be customized by shortening the canopy in two directions. This adjustment involves cutting the aluminium extrusions and the roof sheets to size.


7. What warranty is offered with your patio covers?


We provide a robust warranty: 5 years on the aluminium frames and 3 years on the polycarbonate panels. For detailed terms, please visit our Terms & Conditions page.


8. How large is the package, and do I need special arrangements for pickup?


Package lengths vary from 2.6m to 3.5m depending on the size of the patio cover. We recommend discussing pickup arrangements with our Customer Service Team to ensure you have the appropriate transportation, such as a trailer.
