Patio and Pergola Builders in Burleigh Heads
Many people can't decide between a roofed patio and an open pergola, so a common answer is both: a solid roof near the house for rain cover, and an open pergola further out for sun and air.

Why choose Orange Projects
Materials and fixings are chosen for Gold Coast sun, storms and, near the water, salt air, which is what determines whether a structure still looks good in ten years.
Access protected, offcuts cleared daily, and honest updates on what is happening and when.
Orange Projects is a QBCC-licensed builder (Licence No. 15620733). We confirm the building scope in writing; current licence details and relevant insurance certificates can be requested before work starts.
We inspect the property, then put an itemised fixed price in writing covering structure, roofing, fixings and rubbish removal. No vague allowances.
Combining a patio and a pergola
A solid roof gives you somewhere dry to sit in summer storms. An open pergola gives you filtered sun in winter and a lighter look. Building one section of each under a single design gives you both without the structure looking pieced together.
We match the beam sizes, post style and colours across both sections so it reads as one structure.

Options for Burleigh Heads outdoor areas
Roofed section near the house
Usually insulated panels, sized for the dining or lounge area. Gutters and downpipes are run neatly to stormwater.
Open pergola section
Timber or aluminium battens over the outer area, spaced to suit how much shade you want. It can later be roofed if your needs change.

Covering an existing deck
If the deck is already there, we check its frame and footings before adding roof posts. Roof posts often need their own footings.
Our process
- 01
Site inspection
We walk the yard with you, check the roof line, ground levels, sun path and where posts can realistically land, and talk through how you want to use the space.
- 02
Design and material selection
We settle the style, roofing type, timber or steel structure, ceiling treatment and finishes, and confirm anything that affects price before quoting.
- 03
Fixed-price written quote
You receive an itemised quote covering structure, roofing, fixings, engineering where required, electrical coordination and site clean-up.
- 04
Engineering and approvals where needed
