Firstly, what is a flat patio roof?

A flat patio roof is just that – a patio with a flat, horizontal roof. It can be a free-standing structure or it can be constructed against an existing structure or wall. This makes flat patios ideal for carports, backyard alfresco areas, patio covers, deck roofs, porch roofs and roof extensions or covering the front path of a home.

What could a flat deck roof be used for.

If you are considering erecting a flat porch roof here are some uses for the structure:

• BBQ catch ups and get-togethers
• Wine and cold beers with family and friends on a Friday night or weekend
• Watching your kids enjoy ice-creams and play in the pool during Summer
• Family gatherings, special occasions and birthday parties at home
• Campouts in the backyard
• the list could continue limited only by your imagination…

Start creating those happy memories today when you start constructing your own flat patio roof.
