About this Aurora covered-patio project
Abricos LLC completed this combined exterior-remodeling and outdoor-living project in Aurora in 2025. The work included replacement windows and construction of a new covered patio from the ground up. The finished patio incorporates a framed roof with asphalt shingles, finished soffit and fascia, gutters and downspouts, masonry-clad columns, aluminum railings, concrete steps and coordinated exterior finishes.
Creating a protected outdoor-living area
The homeowner wanted a large covered area that could provide protection from sun and changing weather while remaining visually connected to the home. Replacement windows, the new roof structure, masonry column bases, aluminum railings, gutters and exterior finishes needed to work together as one coordinated rear-elevation improvement.
Window replacement and the original open patio
The back of the home had an open concrete patio without a permanent roof structure. Window replacement and exterior opening work were underway before construction of the new posts, beams and patio roof began.

Connecting the new patio roof to the existing home
Challenge
The new covered area extended across a substantial portion of the rear elevation. Post locations, beam alignment, roof slope, drainage, window openings, masonry columns, railings and existing door access all needed to be coordinated within the same footprint.
Solution
Abricos LLC established the post-and-beam layout from the concrete patio, framed the new roof in relation to the existing house and completed the roofing, drainage, soffit, column, railing and exterior-finish work as a coordinated sequence.
