Melbourne Elite Patio Covers provides professional lattice patio covers in Melbourne, FL for residential and commercial properties across the Space Coast. Start with what lattice will not do. It will not make a west-facing Melbourne patio comfortable at four in the afternoon in July. If that is the brief, choosing lattice because it costs less is buying the wrong thing cheaply, and we field that call every summer.
What it does do is filter light while leaving the space feeling open. Spaced rafters over a walkway, a side yard, a planted bed or a seating area used mainly in the evening is exactly its job, and it does that job better than a solid roof would, for noticeably less money.
The practical advantages go beyond price. Rain reaches whatever is planted underneath. There is no roof drainage to design and no gutter to keep clear of oak litter. Nothing traps heat against the underside, and after lovebug season there is a great deal less surface to go over with a hose.
Two variables do the work: rafter spacing and rafter direction. Tighter spacing throws heavier shade at midday and reads as a heavier structure. Direction decides which hours you are shaded, and on this coast the hours that matter are late in the afternoon. We check the sun path on site rather than drawing a grid and hoping.
Most lattice structures can be closed in later with a solid or insulated roof, but only if the footings, posts and beams were sized for that load on day one. It is a small allowance now. Digging new footings under a standing structure is not a small anything.
The combination that works best locally is lattice with a drop screen or exterior shade on the west side. Open feel for most of the day, real relief for the two or three hours that need it, and usually less money than a solid roof would have taken.
With 15+ years of experience, our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — extruded 6063 aluminum framing, 18x14 and no-see-um insect cloth, screw-chase and snap-cover extrusions, spline-and-groove screen retention, engineered piers and thickened slab edges, uplift straps and anchor schedules — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Melbourne and nearby communities including Palm Bay, West Melbourne, Melbourne Village, Indialantic.

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 extruded 6063 aluminum framing, 18x14 and no-see-um insect cloth, screw-chase and snap-cover extrusions, spline-and-groove screen retention, 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 Melbourne 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 Space Coast means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
