Edinburg Elite Patio Covers provides professional lattice patio covers in Edinburg, TX for residential and commercial properties across the Rio Grande Valley. Lattice is a shade structure that lets air through, and that is the entire case for it. On an Edinburg lot with a working southeast exposure, an open cover can be more comfortable at midday than a sealed one, because the hot air underneath has somewhere to go instead of stacking up against a pan. It is the one cover that does not trade airflow for shade, and that trade is usually the whole problem.
The trade is honest. Rafters at four inches on center throw most of the sun and still let heat rise out instead of pooling. Set them wider and you have a decorative frame with a lot of daylight coming through it. No spacing gives full shade and full airflow at once, and nobody selling you one will volunteer that fact. Spacing is a comfort specification and it belongs on the drawing.
Rafter orientation does more than spacing does. Members running north to south shade a west patio through the late afternoon, which is when this city is at its worst and when the air conditioner is working hardest. The same members turned ninety degrees let low sun straight in under the beam. Free to choose at layout, expensive to change afterward. Shade follows the sun's path, so the rafter direction has to be chosen against it.
Where we would not use it: over an outdoor kitchen, over anything with a fabric cushion on it, and anywhere the plan includes screen. Lattice and screen do not combine. A screen roof needs a continuous frame to seal against, and an open rafter field hands it forty separate places for insects to get in overnight. Rain passes straight through it as well, which rules out anything that must stay dry.
Where it earns its place: over a walkway between house and detached garage, along the edge of a solid cover so the structure steps down instead of stopping dead, over seating on the breeze side where a solid roof would trap still air, and over a planting bed that wants filtered light rather than deep shade. In each of those the point is filtered light rather than full shade.
Aluminum lattice rather than timber, for the same reason as everything else we build here. No recoat, no swelling in a humid week, and the spacing you specify is still the spacing in ten years. It is still a patio cover to the plan reviewer, so posts get piers and hold-downs. Uplift does not care that the roof is open. Aluminum lattice also weighs little enough to keep the footings modest.
With 15+ years of experience, our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — 18x14 fiberglass insect screen, no-see-um and 20x20 tight-weave mesh, solar shade screen fabric, pet-resistant lower-panel mesh, spline-and-groove screen retention, powder-coated extruded aluminum framing — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Edinburg and nearby communities including McAllen, Mission, Pharr, Weslaco.

Materials, equipment and how we do lattice patio covers
The difference between lattice patio covers that lasts and lattice patio covers that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with 18x14 fiberglass insect screen, no-see-um and 20x20 tight-weave mesh, solar shade screen fabric, pet-resistant lower-panel mesh, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Edinburg job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of patio cover work in the Rio Grande Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
