American Patio Covers Plus

What American Patio Covers Plus does

American Patio Covers Plus LLC is a Washington-based custom manufacturer and installer of outdoor covering systems, founded in 1994 and headquartered in Arlington, WA. The company fabricates patio covers from Acrylite® IMPACT Double-Skinned Acrylic Sheets (10mm thick, available in five UV-filtering tints including Heatstop Cool Blue) mounted on a proprietary structural aluminum I-beam frame engineered specifically for Pacific Northwest snow, wind, and driving-rain conditions. Its product portfolio includes shed-style, gable-style, and freestanding patio covers, aluminum pergolas, custom awnings (manual and motorized), deck coverings, aluminum railing systems, and a corrugated Wave Acrylic retrofit panel line.

The business operates a multi-channel go-to-market: direct in-home sales and professional installation for residential and commercial customers primarily across Western Washington (with documented reach into Oregon, California, and Idaho), a wholesale dealer/contractor program supplying made-to-order kits with catalogs and install guides, and a DIY e-commerce kit channel shipping throughout the US and Western Canada. Residential projects are quote-based with free in-home estimates, typical pricing ranges from $5,000 to $30,000 for acrylic patio covers and $1,000 to $7,000+ for awnings, and customer financing is offered through a Synchrony partnership. The company employs approximately 20 year-round staff and reports 2,400+ patios protected across its 30-plus year operating history.

Revenue is generated through one-time custom installation projects, wholesale hardware/kit sales to dealers, and financing-adjacent professional services, with no subscription, recurring, or platform-based revenue streams disclosed. The company is a privately held Washington State LLC with no parent company, subsidiaries, or external funding rounds identified in the available source material.
