Covered Patio Extension in Nocatee, FL

Covered patio extensions for Nocatee homes: more shade, more room, and a roof that looks original to the house.

Most builder patios are too small for a table and a few chairs, and they sit out in the sun. A covered patio extension adds usable space with a roof that ties into the house. AY Luxury Designs designs and builds covered patio extensions for homeowners in Nocatee, from A-frame and gable covers to single-slope extensions where an A-frame won't fit.

Planning Your Covered Patio Extension for a Nocatee Home

Start with your neighborhood's guidelines. Each Nocatee neighborhood has its own review, so we check yours before we sketch a covered patio extension.
Work from the builder lanai. Most Nocatee homes started with a standard lanai or slab, so we plan a covered patio extension to tie in cleanly and look original to the house.
Fit the lot. Nocatee lots are efficient, so we keep a covered patio extension inside the setbacks and think about the neighbors' view, too.
Plan the whole backyard. Pavers, lighting, fans and shade are designed together in AutoCAD, so everything works as one space.

The EPA's UV Index guidance recommends seeking shade during late morning through mid-afternoon whenever the UV Index is moderate or higher.

Covered Patio Extensions in Nocatee: What's Different

Covered patio extensions in Nocatee. Most Nocatee homes came with a small builder lanai. Extending it is the most common project we see here: in Seabrook we built a cedar roof extension tied into the house with an outdoor kitchen, and in Del Webb Nocatee a composite-roof enclosure.

Permits. Most of Nocatee is in St. Johns County, which issues the building permit, usually after a clearance sheet, and automatically notifies registered architectural review associations. Duval-side neighborhoods such as Brookwood are permitted by the City of Jacksonville. A Notice of Commencement is required for most permitted projects. See our St. Johns County permit guide.

Fans cool people, not rooms: the breeze creates a wind-chill effect, according to ENERGY STAR.
