Corona homeowners know the pattern: a beautiful backyard that sits empty from June through September because the afternoon sun turns it into a griddle. Many Corona homes — especially in newer subdivisions and around Eagle Glen and Sycamore Creek — were built with generous lots and almost no shade. That's exactly the problem an aluminum patio cover solves.
JAM Construction Patios builds custom covers across Corona, and the owners do the work themselves. Samer Numan and Justin McDaniel, licensed California contractors, measure, build, and install every project. No subcontractors, no middlemen — we are the builders, not salesmen.
Cover types and pricing (per square foot):
• Flat pan (non-insulated): $27/sq. ft. — solid shade and rain protection
• Lattice: $29/sq. ft. — open, airy, filtered sunlight
• Insulated (IRP): $35/sq. ft. — foam-core panels that cut heat and rain noise
Projects start at a $3,000 minimum. Add recessed lights ($100 each), a ceiling fan install ($200 — you supply the fan), GFCI outlets ($150), post lights ($150), or a dimmer ($100) to finish the space.
Have an HOA? Most Corona communities have one, and we can work within standard architectural guidelines on colors and styles. For city permits, our permit service runs $600 plus city fees and covers the paperwork, drawings, and inspections.
What cover works best for a west-facing Corona backyard?
Insulated, most of the time. West-facing yards take the hardest afternoon sun, and the insulated panel keeps the roof from radiating heat down on you. We'll price flat pan too so you can compare.
Does my HOA need to approve the cover?
Usually yes for exterior structures. Approval is typically straightforward with the color and style information we provide at your estimate.
