Building in Allen
Structure1 Construction builds custom patio covers and stamped concrete in Allen, TX. Allen sits between Plano and McKinney, two of our busiest service areas, so our crews are nearby most weeks. Allen neighborhoods such as Twin Creeks and Star Creek are largely HOA communities with established backyards, which usually means an architectural approval alongside the city permit.
An Allen family's patio cover is one of our favorite reviews: on time, on budget, and built to the standard we bring to every DFW project.

Most projects begin 2-3 weeks after contract signing, which covers permit approval and material procurement. Construction itself takes 3-7 days for most patio covers and 1-2 weeks for larger outdoor living projects. We serve Allen year-round — fall and winter often have the shortest wait times.
