A patio cover could be an excellent addition to your yard in Sacramento, California. It will allow you to enjoy the outdoors without being blinded by the sun or overheating, and patio covers tend to be one of the more affordable outdoor living space options. In many cases, a boring backyard can be vastly improved by simply building a patio cover and setting up some comfy outdoor seating. However, if you’re looking to do something a little more unique with your cover, consider the following ideas:

• A raised sitting area – A platform made of wood, stone, or brick gives a dimensional look to a backyard and makes for an excellent place to set up a sitting area. The patio cover will complete the space, provide shade, and give you a place to relax when it’s raining.
• Outdoor dining room – A big bench or table with wicker chairs will serve as the best place to enjoy sunny lunches or dinners at sunset. For ambiance, you can add some candles or unique light fixtures.
• An outdoor game room – If you’ve always wanted a poker table or pool table, but you don’t have room inside of your house, you could always put it outside and install a cover to keep it safe from the sun and rain. When it’s extra rainy and windy, just cover it up with a tarp.

There are countless things you can do to make your outdoor space more comfortable and inviting. Some companies, like TEMO, even make customizable outdoor spaces. When you have an authorized dealer install a TEMO patio cover, you’ll be able to choose from five styles – the traditional cover, the carport, the sunlight pavilion, the Santa Fe, and the St. Thomas – and you’ll have your choice of three Italian-inspired column designs. You can also choose to add pergola trim to your patio cover for a pretty, unique look.
