What choices determine the cost of a patio canopy?

Prices depend on several choices. Using the choices below, write down your wishes in advance. If you don’t know exactly what looks good in your garden, you can also ask a garden architect to give you advice and/or create a garden design for you.

Choice 1: Made-to-measure or prefab

The way you build your patio covering makes a big difference in price. So think carefully about what you want and which form best suits it.

• Customisation:Do you have specific wishes? Then customisation is the way to get your own unique patio cover. Size, material, colour, everything is up to you. Everything is assembled in your garden.
• Prefab: Would you like all the advantages of a patio covering, but for the lowest price? Then choose a prefabricated canopy. This variant is already made in the factory and delivered ready-made to your garden. Because these patio covers are mass-produced, the price is a lot lower than custom-made ones.

Choice 2: Size

Prices go up or down depending on the size of the patio cover. Most people choose a width proportional to the house for optimal results and a depth of 3 metres. However, not every canopy is attached to a house. For a detached canopy, a square shape of 3 metres by 3 metres is usually adopted. Per m² it costs on average £ 300.

Choice 3: Material

Terrace canopies are made of different materials. The most common materials are: aluminium, steel and wood.

• Wood:A wooden patio cover is made of hardwood and provides a natural look. Wood, unlike aluminium and steel, requires maintenance every year and has a lifespan of 30 years. The purchase cost, on the other hand, is the lowest.
• Aluminium:Aluminium is a light material and does not rust or rot. An aluminium patio cover is therefore maintenance-free and has a long lifespan of 50 years on average. Prices are on average slightly higher than wooden patio covers, but lower than steel.
• Steel:A steel patio cover is the most expensive. Steel is heavier than aluminium so the posts are narrower. The steel does need to be hot-dip galvanised to prevent rust. A steel patio covering has an average lifespan of 50 years.

Choice 4: Additional options

To provide the patio covering with extra comfort and a longer lifespan, you have several options.
