Covered Decks & Patio Covers in Fort Worth, TX

Beat the Texas Heat with Shade That Fits Your Backyard

If you’ve ever tried to enjoy your deck in the middle of a Fort Worth summer, you know how hot it can get. The sun is brutal. One minute you’re sipping iced tea, the next you’re baking on your own patio. That’s why more and more homeowners are calling CS Deck Builder Fort Worth for professionally built covered decks and patio covers in Fort Worth.

 

Whether you need a full deck with a roof, a freestanding pergola, or a modern shade structure built right off your home, we’ll help you design something that works. Shade isn’t just a luxury in North Texas — it’s a necessity. And when it’s done right, a covered deck doesn’t just block the sun — it turns your backyard into a true outdoor living space.

Why Add a Covered Deck?

Decks are great. But if yours doesn’t have shade, you’re probably not using it nearly as much as you’d like. That’s where we come in.

Adding a covered deck gives you:

  • Protection from direct sun and UV rays

  • Shelter from sudden summer rain

  • More usable space for grilling, dining, or relaxing

  • Better comfort for pets and guests

  • Increased home value and curb appeal

We’ve installed shade structures in Fort Worth that transformed hot, unused patios into favorite hangout spots. Whether it’s a full patio cover with lighting and fans or a minimalist pergola for a hint of shade, we design for function and comfort — and make it match your home beautifully.

Styles We Build

We work with all types of covered deck styles and materials, depending on your goals, home design, and budget.

Attached Patio Covers

This is one of the most common upgrades in Fort Worth. An attached patio cover extends right from the roofline of your home to provide seamless shade over your existing or new deck. It looks like it’s always been part of the house — and adds tons of usability.

Pergolas

Want shade without fully enclosing your space? A pergola gives you filtered light and architectural style without making things feel closed off. Perfect for growing climbing plants or hanging string lights. Pergolas are a favorite in areas like Fairmount and TCU West Cliff where charm and open-air vibes go hand-in-hand.

Freestanding Shade Structures

Have a pool deck, outdoor kitchen, or fire pit away from the house? We can build a freestanding structure with a solid roof or pergola-style shade right where you need it. We’ve built these in wide backyards in Benbrook and Wedgwood, where space is plenty but sun coverage is limited.

Decks with Roofs

For full protection, we design and install decks with full roofs — complete with ceiling fans, lighting, and even TV mounts. This setup is perfect if you want to create a full outdoor living room you can use all year long.

Built to Withstand Fort Worth Weather

The Fort Worth sun is serious — so is the wind, the rain, and those random hailstorms. That’s why we build every covered deck with structural strength in mind. We use pressure-treated framing, strong roof supports, proper flashing, and weatherproof finishes that stand up to time and Texas weather.

 

And if you’re worried about HOA rules or city permits? Don’t be. We handle that, too. As experienced patio cover builders, we’re familiar with local codes and approval processes all over Tarrant County.

FAQs About Covered Decks in Fort Worth

How much does a covered deck cost?

Costs vary depending on size, materials, and design features. Simple pergolas can start around $4,000, while full deck with roof installations can run $12,000–$25,000+. We’ll walk you through your options and give you a clear, detailed quote.

Do I need a permit to build a patio cover in Fort Worth?

Yes, most covered structures require a permit. But don’t worry — we take care of that. We’re familiar with the city’s process and will make sure everything is above board and up to code.

What’s the best material for a patio cover?

It depends on your goals. We offer wood, aluminum, vinyl, and composite options. Wood gives a natural look and can be stained to match your deck. Aluminum and composite are lower maintenance and more weather-resistant. We’ll help you compare.

Can I add fans, lights, or a TV under my patio cover?

Absolutely. We can pre-wire your structure for ceiling fans, outdoor lighting, and weather-protected TV mounting. It’s a great way to make your deck feel like a true outdoor room.

Will a patio cover add value to my home?

Yes. In Fort Worth’s hot climate, covered outdoor space is a big draw. A well-designed and professionally built patio cover adds both livable square footage and resale appeal.

Exactly What We Wanted
We had a vision for a two-level deck with a pergola, and CS Deck Builder Fort Worth made it happen. From the first call, they listened and helped us figure out what would actually work best for our yard. The team was on time every day, cleaned up after themselves, and the final result looks even better than the renderings. We use the space daily now.

Brought Our Old Deck Back to Life
Our deck was about 12 years old and totally falling apart. We thought we’d have to rip it out, but they were honest and said a full deck repair would do the trick. They replaced some of the framing, sanded everything down, and stained it. Looks brand new. Super glad we didn’t waste money starting over.

Great for Poolside Projects
We added a pool last year and needed a new deck around it that wouldn’t get too slippery. CS Deck Builder Fort Worth helped us pick composite material that stays cool and safe for the kids. Their crew finished the install fast and left no mess behind. We host friends almost every weekend now.

Stress-Free and Super Professional
This was the smoothest project we’ve done on our home. No surprises, no upselling, no delays. The team helped us design a small cedar deck for our backyard in Fairmount with built-in benches and lighting. It looks amazing, and we get compliments all the time.

Perfect Pergola for the Texas Sun
We wanted something stylish but functional to cover our patio. They designed and built a beautiful pergola that gives just enough shade but doesn’t feel heavy or closed off. It’s become our favorite hangout spot, especially during Fort Worth summers. Highly recommend.
