4 Covered Decks We Promise You’ll Love

lagoon_admin • June 16, 2021

Whether you’re looking for a way to increase the usability of an outdoor space for the warmer seasons or you’re wanting to invest in your house’s value, a covered deck is the perfect option for most homeowners. Besides providing protection from the elements, covering your deck or patio can complete the look of your backyard oasis. Rather than an umbrella or temporary structure, a built-out covering will compliment the home, helping make the transition from indoor to outdoor living space as aesthetically pleasing as possible. Here are our top 4 deck coverings to elevate your outdoor space.


1. Roof Extension

Roof extensions are one of the more common types of covered decks. Typically you will see either a second floor overhang or an actual extension of the roof used for these coverings. They provide plenty of shade and seem closer to actually being an indoor space compared to other covered decks and patios.


2. Screened In Deck

Perfect for midwestern summers, screened in decks are a popular choice for homeowners thanks to their knack for keeping bugs out of your outdoor living space. With a wide variety of screens and styles, it’s easy to pick out the perfect screen for your outdoor living needs.


3. Pergola

Not looking for full coverage? Or maybe you’re wanting some crawl space for your garden? Sounds like you might need a pergola. They can help define a living space without completely preventing you from soaking up some sun. On top of that, they are always in style and can become a statement piece for your home.


4. Gazebo

If your deck or patio is detached from the main structure of your home, a gazebo can help define and centralize your outdoor space. They make the perfect epicenter for your backyard barbecue, drink station, and more! It’s hard to beat the shade of a gazebo when they have magnificent airflow when a light breeze sways through.
