Melbourne Elite Patio Covers provides professional insulated patio covers in Melbourne, FL for residential and commercial properties across the Space Coast. The difference between lattice and an insulated roof is not shade. It is radiant heat. Lattice blocks the sun you can see. A foam-core panel stops the heat that a bare roof would otherwise radiate down at you all evening.
The panel is two roll-formed aluminum skins bonded either side of a rigid foam core, spanning beam to beam with nothing underneath. No rafters, no ceiling to finish, and an underside that arrives already done. Three inch handles most attached runs, and past roughly fourteen feet clear, six inch is what keeps the middle from sagging.
About half of ours go over an existing lanai rather than a bare slab. A builder pan roof with no insulation in it is the reason a great many Melbourne lanais sit unused from June through September. Re-roofing that same structure with foam-core panels changes the temperature underneath more than any fan will.
Solid roofs make water. We build slope into the panels, run the gutter as part of the fascia beam rather than bolting one on afterwards, and land downspouts where the water can get away from the slab. Brevard sand under a footing that receives roof runoff every afternoon will move, and the structure moves with it.
This is also the cover that pairs best with screen, and it is worth deciding up front. Solid roof above, screened walls between the posts, and the space works at two in the afternoon and at eight at night. Sizing posts and footings for that load at the outset costs very little.
Fans belong under this roof in particular. The air below an insulated panel has not spent the afternoon being cooked from above, so a fan is moving something worth moving. We set boxes and run switch legs inside the beams during the build, because surface conduit on a finished panel is both ugly and entirely avoidable.
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 insulated patio covers
The difference between insulated patio covers that lasts and insulated 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.
