Why aluminum patio covers suit Orange County
Aluminum patio covers give you shade and rain cover without the upkeep of wood. Aluminum does not rot, termites cannot eat it, and it does not need sanding and repainting every few seasons. That is why aluminum is our specialty at Ocean Pacific Patios.
Our climate makes the case even stronger. Inland yards in Anaheim or Yorba Linda get long, hot afternoons, while homes in Newport Beach and Huntington Beach live with the marine layer and salt air. Aluminum handles both, as long as the finish is right and you rinse it now and then near the coast.

The aluminum patio cover materials we use
Not all aluminum covers look or perform the same. We build with two materials, and many of our covers mix them.
- Wood grain embossed aluminum (Duralum Products Inc). The surface is pressed with a wood grain texture, so beams and lattice read as painted wood from the yard. It is the low-upkeep answer for homes where wood would look right.
- Extruded aluminum (4K Aluminum). Extrusions are formed into precise, crisp profiles. They suit modern homes and the clean black or white look many people want today.
- Both in one cover. We sometimes pair extruded posts and beams with a wood grain roof, or the reverse, to get the look and the structure you want.
Ask to see the grain, the profiles and the colors next to your house before you decide.

Aluminum patio roof styles
The roof decides how the space feels. Our own projects include each of these styles:
- Solid roof. Full shade and rain cover over a table, grill or outdoor kitchen.
- Lattice roof. Open slats that cast a pattern of shade and keep the patio bright.
- Insulated roof. Panels with a foam core, so the patio stays cooler and rain is quieter overhead. Insulated panels also make it easier to add lights and a ceiling fan.
- Gabled roof. A pitched aluminum patio roof that can echo the lines of your house.
- Freestanding. A cover on its own posts over a pool deck, spa or garden seating area.

Metal patio covers: aluminum or steel?
When people search for metal patio covers or a metal patio roof, they are usually choosing between aluminum and steel. Steel is heavier and can rust where the finish gets scratched, which matters in salt air. Aluminum is lighter and does not rust, which is why we build with it.
A metal roof patio cover also differs from a corrugated panel kit. A built cover has posts, beams and a roof planned for your patio size, your house and the loads your city asks for.

Working with an aluminum patio cover contractor in Orange County
We measure your patio, check how the cover will attach to your house or stand on its own, and talk through roof style, color and extras.

Posted on GoogleI recently had a new solid insulated patio cover installed. My experience with Ocean Pacific Patios was amazing from start to finish. Charlie the Design Consultant was friendly and knowledgeable! Most importantly he was not pushy at all! He answered all my questions without hesitation. The Construction Manager, John, was wonderful too! He had great suggestions and expertise knowledge! Mario and his crew did an excellent job in the demolition of my old cover and installed the new one with precise skills! I have already recommended this company to three people. I have zero complaints!

Posted on GoogleWe did a large front/backyard remodel and pool. John and his team did the Pergolas. Of the three separate contractors we used I would only recommend John. He and his team were professional and the quality was first rate. I really wish I had discovered John before I signed the contract with the main hardscape contractor. John's experience and excellent problem solving skills really saved the project. I highly recommend Ocean Pacific Patios.

Posted on GoogleJohn and Charlie took on our complicated home patio pavers and drainage project this past fall 2025. It was small, so I was worried it would not be a priority for anyone - but they were prompt, fair, and no-nonsense. Their crews were expedient, knowledgeable and exceeded our expectations. They were patient while we selected just the right paver color, and made suggestions such as some small accent lights that have made a huge difference! Charlie is extremely knowledgeable and helped us to achieve a beautiful result that drains properly. They even helped locate and connect a drain line that was buried under some pavers we had placed years ago, leaving the area looking beautiful! I would highly recommend Ocean Pacific Patios, without reservation. They are the best.

Posted on GoogleIf you’re looking for a beautiful, high quality patio cover at a fair price, this is the company to use. Construction manager John Haynes handled all our design needs in a very professional manner. Tony and the install crew really know their stuff too.
You couldn’t go wrong using Ocean Pacific Patios. - Dave Ramos2 years ago★★★★★
Posted on GoogleAfter several bids and proposals with patio cover companies, we decided to go with Ocean Pacific to replace our old dilapidated patio cover. Charlie was informative and fair in presenting his numbers. John, the construction manager, in addition to his expertise in confirming the design details, was very helpful in referring a wood repair man (who did a great job). Demo day went smoothly. The crew was quick and efficient. Installation of the patio cover was spectacular - Hugo and his helper completed the job in one day! They were professional and answered my questions. They cleaned up the back yard after their completion. We are very happy with the patio cover. It turned out beautiful! Thank you, Ocean Pacific.

Posted on GoogleIt was great working with Ocean Pacific Patios. I updated my pool deck and was extremely pleased with the quality of work that was produced. Looking forward to them for more projects in the future.

Posted on GoogleMy wife and I selected Ocean Pacific Patios after receiving several different bids. From the beginning, Charlie came to our home and listened to what we wanted. During this process, Charlie suggested a different option that we had not thought of. He presented us a bid for our option and the new option he offered. We finally decided to go with Charlie’s option. Charlie and John came out for the final design meeting, at which time John made a production drawing of our new patio cover, which really helped tell us we made the right design decision. During the installation John’s crew was very professional and they left the work site clean, when finished. We are very happy with the new patio cover and glad Charlie suggested this option. I would highly recommend Ocean Pacific Patios. Thanks Charlie and John.

Posted on GoogleBy far the EASIEST process it was by working with Charlie Twitch who sealed the deal and outbid 6 other contractors and John Haynes whose expertise made this sunroom exactly to vision. This company is truly the sunroom experts of Orange County. Please trust me when I tell you, my yard was a complete disaster before this and not only did they demo the existing leaking cover which came with the house, but they helped me design the rest of the yard alongside others and were amazing coordinating and masterminding the final outcome. They are honest and treated me like family the entire time. Look no further. I already did the research for you!

Posted on GoogleWe decided to work with John and his team at Ocean Pacific Patio after our due diligence in gathering a number of quotes and design ideas. We do not have a standard patio layout and so it was very important to have the right people who could understand our vision. After meeting with John and going over the details, it was clear to us that he could take us to the finish line with our outdoor patio cover. The build took two days and our space was kept very clean. The craftsmanship and attention to detail is first class. I would definitely recommend Ocean Pacific Patios to anyone who is looking to build their dream patio. Thank you 🙏🏽
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Still deciding? Call us and we will talk it through.
Call (949) 525-1267How much weight can an aluminum patio cover hold?
It depends on the design: span, beam size, post spacing and the roof panels. Covers are planned for the loads your city requires, not for people walking on the roof. If you want ceiling fans, lights or heaters, tell us early so the plan accounts for them.
Is an aluminum patio cover cheaper than wood?
It depends on size, style and the wood you compare against. The bigger difference shows up later: aluminum does not need sanding, sealing or repainting, and it does not rot or attract termites. Over the years, that upkeep is where most homeowners feel the savings.
Do I need a permit to build a patio cover in California?
In most cases, plan on one. Cities set their own triggers, often tied to roof area, whether the cover attaches to the house and how close it sits to the property line. An unpermitted cover can come up during a home sale. We go over your city's rules with you before anything is ordered.
What is the difference between wood grain and extruded aluminum?
Wood grain aluminum, from Duralum, has an embossed texture that looks like painted wood. Extruded aluminum, from 4K Aluminum, is formed into clean, smooth profiles with a modern look. We use each alone or combine them in one cover.
Will an aluminum patio cover hold up near the beach?
Aluminum does not rust, which is why it works well in coastal cities like Newport Beach and Huntington Beach. Salt can still build up on the finish, so a rinse with fresh water a few times a year keeps the cover looking clean.
Can I add lights or a fan to an aluminum patio cover?
Yes, in many cases. Insulated roof panels make it easier to run wiring for recessed lights and a ceiling fan. Plan the electrical when you design the cover, because adding it later is harder and the work needs an electrician.
