Why should I contact Patio Perfect?

Patio Perfect is a twenty year old business providing friendly and experienced service. Dennis will listen to your ideas and offer advice on how we can best provide for your requirements. Dennis is often told by customers that his informative approach and advice was not provided by other companies.


Are all patios the same quality?

No – quality depends on the type of materials used, and the skill of the fabrication. Patio Perfect is able to offer you the complete range of the upmarket Stratco “Outback” patios and carports as well as standard Homeline patios. All Patio Perfects patios are built using high quality Australian Standard Steel and fabricated at our factory in all shapes and sizes.


Does the patio come with a warranty or guarantee?

Patio Perfect Homeline patios all come with a 10 year structural warranty and all Stratco patios come with a 25 year structural warranty. The Stratco “Outback” range also comes with a guarantee folder.


Do I need council approval?

All patios need a building licence from the local shire and some need a development application. Patio Perfect attends to all applications on your behalf.


Should my patio roof be the same colour as my house?

Generally a patio roof is not expected to be any other colour than a high gloss, cool and bright roof sheeting. That means Classic Cream, Paperbark or Surfmist. Other colours can be used but are not available in high gloss and therefore do not provide a cool bright finish.


Should my carport roof be the same colour as my house?

We usually recommend that your carport roof matches the colour of your house to increase its street appeal. As it is not an outdoor living area, it does not need to be a cool, high-gloss material.


Should I get polycarbonate or fibreglass rooflites and gable infills?

We recommend polycarbonate rooflites and gable infills as fibreglass does not look as good and in most applications is only a little cheaper.


Who are the sales people?

Patio Perfect is a family owned business. Dennis and his daughter Lisa hold the sales positions, and along with his wife Lorraine, complete the entire project from sales to getting the job on site ready for installation. We have a number of trained installation teams we work with.


How long will all this take?

Patios generally take about six weeks.
Sheds with concrete pads take about eight weeks.
Sunroofs and Cooldek (Insulated roof panels) take a little longer.
These times include council approval and fabrication.
