What are free standing patios?

Free standing patios are outdoor living spaces that are built separate from the main home or any other structure. They offer a unique blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal, with all the benefits of traditional patios as well as greater flexibility with the location and design.

Freestanding patios allow you to create a distinct indoor and outdoor space as they don’t need to be attached to your home or another existing structure. They can be built anywhere on your property, so you can choose the best spot for natural light, shade, or views. While an attached patio is typically enclosed on one side where it connects to the house, a free standing patio can be fully open to enhance your outdoor lifestyle.

Free standing patios also have more options for roof styles as the patio roof cover doesn’t necessarily have to match the existing architecture. You can choose from a modern gable roof, composite insulated roof, or flat roof design to construct a freestanding patio that stands apart from your main home.

Whether you have a sprawling backyard to work with or your existing home doesn’t support a conventional patio build, Altec’s free standing patio designs are the versatile solution to create your new outdoor area. Get in touch with our experienced consultants and start planning your dream patio today.

Why choose a freestanding patio?

Patios are typically an extension of your home to provide additional outdoor living space, but not every home can support this type of construction. Older builds or unique architectural styles may not be sturdy enough or have the required space to fix or attach a patio cover. In this case, a free standing patio would be the most suitable option.

Structural considerations for building a free standing patio include:

  • Facias or eaves are rotting or structurally unsound
  • There is asbestos in the existing structure
  • Potential fixing points do not have enough height
  • Existing structure is not designed to attach to (such as a shed)
  • Existing structure is moving and showing compromised structural integrity
  • Building on a large block where proximity to access is most practical (such as a caravan or boat cover)
  • Building on a smaller block where building close to boundary is required and more practical from a building approval perspective
  • Design is best suited to keep independent because of storm water management

Free standing patios also offer more design opportunities in terms of placement, size, and layout. You can choose a look you love without needing to consider how it fits with an existing structure. That gives you the freedom to get creative with different styles, shapes, and materials to create your new patio.

If a freestanding patio sounds like the right option for your property, get in touch with our specialist patio builders at Altec. We can create and install a custom outdoor living space that meets your every requirement.
