Shade for Santa Ana’s warmer afternoons
Santa Ana sits inland, so the morning gray tends to clear earlier and summer afternoons get warmer than they do near the beach. For most homeowners here, shade is the first reason to add a cover. A covered patio on the south or west side of the house can turn a slab you avoid into the coolest spot on the lot.
Santa Ana shares a border with Costa Mesa, where we are based, and Bristol Street and the 55 connect the two cities. We build patio covers across Orange County, and Santa Ana is one of the closest cities we serve.

Covers that respect older Santa Ana homes
Neighborhoods such as Floral Park and French Park are known for older homes with Craftsman, Spanish and period details. A cover attached to that kind of house looks right when its roof line, beam ends and color work with the original architecture.
- Wood grain embossed aluminum from Duralum gives the warm look of painted wood beams without the scraping and repainting.
- A gable patio cover can echo the pitched roof of a bungalow or period home.
- Slim posts and a low profile keep the cover from crowding the back of the house.
If your home is in one of Santa Ana’s historic districts, ask the city early whether extra design review applies to an addition like a patio cover.

Smaller lots and mid-century tract homes
Much of the city is made up of mid-century tract houses on modest lots. Here every square foot of yard counts, so the roof style matters more than the size.
A lattice cover keeps a small yard bright with filtered shade. A solid or insulated roof gives a dining table full shade and keeps the rain off. On a narrow side yard, a freestanding cover on its own posts can create a shaded corner without tying into an older roof.

Ready for wind and winter rain
The Santa Ana winds, which share the city’s name, can push hard on any outdoor structure. Post spacing, footings and the connection to your house all need to suit a gusty fall week. A solid roof also needs a clear path for winter rain, so slope and runoff belong in the plan from the start.

Santa Ana patio cover installation, step by step
- Call or send photos. Reach us at (949) 525-1267 and describe what the space is for: dining, shade for the kids or a quiet corner.
- Measure and design. We look at the roof line, the fascia, where posts can go and how the sun crosses your yard.
- Check city requirements. Patio covers in Santa Ana typically go through city plan review, so we talk through what your design will need before a build date is set.
- Build and walkthrough. We build the cover in extruded aluminum from 4K Aluminum, wood grain aluminum, or both, then walk the finished space with you.

Thinking about a pergola instead?
Some yards suit an open beam roof better than a covered one, especially when you want lighter shade and a more architectural look. See our Santa Ana pergola installation page to compare. When you are ready, contact Ocean Pacific Patios and we will talk through both.

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) 525-1267Does Santa Ana require plan review for a patio cover?
Usually, yes. The city looks at size, attachment to the house and your property before a patio cover is built. Homes in a historic district may also face design review. We talk through these points with you while planning.
What patio cover suits an older Santa Ana home?
Wood grain embossed aluminum is a good match for Craftsman and Spanish style homes because it reads like painted wood beams without the upkeep. A gable roof can echo the house, and slim posts keep the back elevation from looking crowded.
Lattice or solid roof for a small Santa Ana yard?
Lattice gives filtered shade and keeps a small yard bright. A solid or insulated roof gives full shade and keeps a table dry in the rain. On a compact lot, many homeowners put solid cover over seating and lattice at the edges.
How much does a patio cover usually cost?
Cost depends on the size of the cover, the roof style (lattice, solid or insulated), the material, whether it attaches to the house or stands alone, footings and city plan review. We measure your space first so the quote fits your actual project.
Can you enclose a covered patio?
Yes. Patio enclosures are one of our four services, along with patio covers, pergolas and sunrooms. Screened or glass walls turn a covered patio into a room you can use on cool evenings or when the wind picks up.
How far is Ocean Pacific Patios from Santa Ana?
Our base is at 566 Sturgeon Dr in Costa Mesa, the city just south of Santa Ana. Being that close makes it simple to visit for measurements, review the design with you in person and schedule build days.
