Patio Covers

Create a Comfortable, Covered Outdoor Living Space

Your backyard should be a place you can enjoy throughout the year, not just when the weather is perfect. At Legacy Pools & Retreats, we design and build custom patio covers that add shade, comfort, and style to your outdoor living space. Whether you’re covering an existing patio or incorporating a covered area into a larger backyard transformation, we’ll create a structure designed to complement your home and the way you live outdoors. From relaxing beside the pool to entertaining friends and family, a custom patio cover can make your backyard more comfortable, functional, and inviting.

Make More of Your Outdoor Space

A Comfortable Shaded Retreat

The South Carolina sun can make an uncovered patio difficult to enjoy during the hottest parts of the day. A thoughtfully designed patio cover creates a shaded retreat where you can relax, dine, entertain, and spend more time outdoors.

Beyond providing shade, a patio cover can become an architectural extension of your home and help define your entire outdoor living area. Legacy Pools & Retreats can design your patio cover as a standalone project or incorporate it into a complete backyard design.

Custom Patio Cover Design Consultation

Every home and backyard is different. That’s why we approach patio covers with the same attention to design, craftsmanship, and detail that we bring to our pools and outdoor living projects.

We’ll consider your home’s architecture, existing outdoor space, desired coverage, and how you plan to use the area to create a patio cover that feels like it belongs.

Poolside Covered Areas

A covered area beside your swimming pool provides a comfortable place to relax and escape the sun without leaving the backyard experience. We can incorporate patio covers into new or existing pool environments to create a more complete, resort-inspired outdoor space.

Covered Outdoor Kitchens & Entertainment Areas

Take your outdoor kitchen or entertainment space to the next level by adding protection from the elements. A patio cover can create a defined area for grilling, dining, watching television, entertaining guests, and enjoying your backyard in greater comfort.


Designed to Complement Your Home

A patio cover shouldn’t look like an afterthought. Our goal is to create a structure that complements the architecture, materials, proportions, and character of your home.

From the roofline and columns to the surrounding patio and outdoor features, each element can be thoughtfully designed to create a seamless transition between your home and backyard. The result is a covered outdoor space that feels intentional, polished, and built as part of the property.
