01
Concrete Patio Design and Installation
Poured concrete patios are the most common patio surface in Colorado Springs due to their durability, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility with Colorado's freeze-thaw cycling when properly installed. We install concrete patios with reinforced (rebar or wire mesh) slabs, control joints placed at intervals to manage cracking, and proper sub-base preparation that accounts for El Paso County's expansive soil conditions. Decorative options include broom finish, exposed aggregate, stamped concrete patterns, and integral color.
02
Paver Patio Design and Installation
Concrete and natural stone paver patios offer more visual variety than poured concrete and have the advantage of individual unit replaceability if a section is damaged or needs to be opened for utility access. We install paver patios on compacted gravel base systems appropriately deep for El Paso County's frost depth, using polymeric sand jointing that resists weed growth and ant intrusion. Paver patio design incorporates border treatments, pattern variations, and integration with planting areas and steps.
03
Attached Covered Patios and Porch Extensions
A covered patio attached to the home's rear or side elevation transforms an uncovered slab into a usable all-season outdoor room. We design covered patio structures that integrate structurally and architecturally with the existing home — matching roof pitch, siding, and trim profiles to create a seamless addition. Structural attachment to the home requires proper ledger connection details and, in many cases, El Paso County plan review.
04
Freestanding Pergola and Shade Structures
Freestanding pergolas provide shade and visual structure without requiring structural attachment to the home. We build cedar, aluminum, and vinyl pergolas in standard and custom sizes, with rafter spacing optimized for the shade density you want at Colorado Springs's latitude. Pergola-mounted shade sails and retractable shade systems extend weather protection for Colorado's afternoon storm season.
05
Outdoor Fireplace and Fire Pit Integration
Patios centered around a fireplace or fire pit become natural gathering spaces for Colorado Springs's cool evenings. We build outdoor fireplaces in masonry or prefabricated steel-insert-and-surround configurations, incorporating seating walls and hearth surfaces that anchor the space. Gas fire pits require gas line extension permits; wood-burning fire features in Colorado Springs are subject to City of Colorado Springs and El Paso County burning regulations that we advise on during project planning.

Patios & Covered Patios
by Project Type
New Patio Installations for Bare Yards
Many Colorado Springs homes — particularly in newer subdivisions in Falcon, Peyton, and Fountain — have no patio at all after builder construction. We provide design-and-build patio installation as a complete scope, from grading and sub-base preparation through final surface and border treatments.
Patio Replacements and Upgrades
Builder-grade concrete pads in older Colorado Springs homes often show cracking, settlement, or drainage issues after years of Colorado's freeze-thaw cycling. We assess existing patio conditions, demo when necessary, address sub-base and drainage issues, and install new patio surfaces with improved specifications.
Outdoor Living Room Complete Packages
Clients who want to create a full outdoor living environment — patio surface, covered structure, outdoor kitchen, fireplace, and lighting — benefit from a single design-build scope that coordinates all elements from the start. We design and build complete outdoor room packages with a single permit package and coordinated project schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a patio and a covered patio?
A patio is an outdoor surface at or near ground level, typically concrete, pavers, or stone. A covered patio adds a roof structure—such as a pergola, solid cover, or attached overhang—to provide shade and weather protection.
What patio materials do you work with?
We work with concrete, exposed aggregate, stamped concrete, natural stone, and pavers. Each material has different cost, durability, and maintenance profiles. We walk you through options based on your budget and intended use.
Do I need a permit for a covered patio?
Yes. Covered patios that are attached to the home or exceed certain size thresholds typically require a permit. Ivory Ridge handles all permit applications and inspections as part of the project.
How long does patio construction take?
A standard patio takes 1 to 2 weeks to complete. Covered patio structures with electrical, fans, or outdoor kitchen components may take 3 to 6 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline before work begins.
Can you tie outdoor lighting and electrical into a new patio?
Yes. We regularly incorporate lighting, ceiling fans, outlets, and TV mounts into covered patio designs. All electrical work is permitted and inspected.
