Differences between patio covers and pergolas:

- Patio cover roofs are installed with asphalt, tile, metal, or cement shingles to match your residence.

- Patio covers allow dedicated circuit/attic runs for electrical wiring to be hidden. Where it is commonly seen in pergolas to see exposed conduit running to electrical components (fans, switches, etc.), because of lack of ceiling enclosure to hide those electrical lines.
- If you’ve opted to stain or seal your pergola, the frequency of re-staining and re-sealing your pergola depends on your climate and the type of stain or sealant you choose. Timeframes range from every year to every 2-3 years.
