Nothing brings us together like a good ol’ barbie, a backyard game of cricket and a few cold ones over Summer. But our hot season can also bring with it some unpredictable storms.
By creating a covered patio area for entertaining you will never have to cancel the barbecue last minute because of impending storms, or move the party inside.
Many Aussie homes already have an uncovered entertaining area outside, or a small verandah or patio but too small to host a decent event. Have you ever considered expanding this area and making it weather proof with a roof? Building a covered BBQ patio area is creating an extension to the living area of your home. You will be amazed just how much time you will spend outside in this new room, and wonder how you ever survived without it.
The covered patio area can be used as an outdoor kitchen, but it is also a great venue for kids parties, movie nights, adult dinner parties, reading and craft activities and social gatherings.
Adding a covered BBQ area to the home will increase the value and can also add that wow factor and point of difference.
Never have your outdoor activities dictated by the weather again. A patio roof will protect from harsh Summer sun and also tropical storms. You can also add clear pull down screens to give more protection from winds and directional rain, while not ruining the view.
The perfect backyard BBQ area
This home incorporates a lounge area, dining table and BBQ into the covered patio area. This opens right onto the backyard for a friendly game of cricket and makes it easy for parents to keep watch over the kids.
BBQ followed by a romantic spa bath under the moon
This patio is a little smaller than the previous example, but still plenty of room for a dining table, BBQ and a small couch. The difference is the heated spa to the side of the patio, so when you are done with dinner you can slip into the spa bath under the moon and stars and enjoy the tranquillity in your own backyard.
The amazing water views enhanced only by the wonderful area to enjoy it from.
This patio has a flyover insulated roof to make the most of the stunning water views from the backyard. Simple yet elegant. What an amazing covered patio to enjoy a BBQ and get-together.
A raised deck to overlook the pool and backyard
Maintaining the connection to the home, but also a completely unique zone the covered patio has amazing views to the backyard and pool. Wide stairs lead down to the backyard and pool, so the areas all flow seamlessly. Another great example of an attached patio roof that not only makes the area work as a BBQ and entertaining area, but also a quiet corner that can be used for many other purposes.
Let the sunshine in
Clear sheeting is used in this home patio over exposed timber beams creating a beautiful pergola. Modern style allows sunlight (or moonlight) to engulf the area but also provides protection from the elements. What an excellent example for a BBQ area and set up for casual dining or relaxing evenings.
BBQs and pool parties
This pool pergola/gazebo has a raised roof and creates the perfect place to cool off by the pool and enjoy a Summer barbecue. The spacious open area gives protection from the harsh Queensland sun. Corrugated roof and exposed timber beams embrace the core of the original Queenslander homestead.
