​Project Location:      Gilston, Gold Coast

Project Description: A combination of our most popular Stratco Cooldek Insulated patio was paired with an open Outback pergola to link 2 areas together. The pergola was required to allow light into the home but to also help frame a gravel area that didn't require a solid roof.

Project Description: This entertaining area was completely transformed with a wide, open Cooldek insulated gable patio and an opening and closing Stratco sunroof patio. We also constructed a new composite Ekodeck to ensure a smooth transition from inside the house onto the new entertainment area. This took care of the sloping back yard and eliminated all steps

​​Project Location:      Elanora, Gold Coast

Project Description: A tricky garage area that was difficult to get into and had multiple roller door heights and attachment points. We wall attached the side, and the rear flys over to gain the required height. Due to the tricky entry angle and curved driveway, we had to offset the last post so access was not restricted. A very successful carport installation by the In Style team.

​​Project Location:      Pacific Pines, Gold Coast

Project Description: A complete outdoor living solution was required. A modern style that added a feature to the house but is functional. The use of the Merbau deck instead of a concrete slab makes all the difference in a project like this. It's the perfect match for this flyover patio install.

​​Project Location:      Hope Island, Gold Coast

Project Description: Working with a sloping block, multiple levels and an angled boundary, required creative thinking and the use of various products to bring this together. The pool and view were the focal points of this project and we needed to enhance these features by using warm Merbau decking and a flyover Cooldek insulated pool patio that didn't distract you from the focal points.

Project Size:             9.300m x 5.400m patio, 73m2 deck
Project Specs:          Roof - 75mm Cooldek, Beam - Outback 150mm, Posts - 100x100 SHS, Decking - Merbau

Project Location:      Maudsland, Gold Coast

Project Description: A stunning, open and uncluttered patio was required for this home with a picture perfect view. This flyover patio needed to blend in with the house and the surrounds while still giving the home owner the ability to use year round. Nailed it!!!

Seeing a backyard transform from a plain block of grass, into a vibrant entertaining addition is always inspiring.

From the 'before' and 'after' pictures below, you can see that this home owners finished product has come together with great planning and perfect selections.

We only had a small part to play in this back yard renovation, adding in the versatile Stratco Outback Cooldek patio to provide the all important protection from the elements for the owners and their new furniture. 

The new patio will ensure they can entertain year round, and also ensure that their expensive furniture, rugs and cushions will not be exposed to the elements and will last just as long.

Sunsets and all year round entertaining has been taken to a new level at this home in Runway Bay on the Gold Coast. This home posed some tricky design characteristics which required us to use the pre-engineered Stratco Riser bracket to attach to the house. This ensured we had the optimum ceiling height for the outdoor area to accentuate the waterfront views. To help with light into the house, a section of the roof is an open pergola to allow natural sunlight into the downstairs areas.

We have also installed full length Stratco Ambient outdoor blinds to protect the area from light wind and rain.

Outdoor entertaining has been taken to the next level with this Outback Patio addition in Nerang on the Gold Coast.
With long roof spans of 6.3m creating an uncluttered look, this outdoor area is close to 60m2 and has been a valuable addition to this home.

Our recent patio at this acreage oasis was in Northern NSW in the Tweed region. 
We installed this extensive Cooldek flat patio along the whole length of the house measuring at over 31m long and a adding combined undercover area of 112m2 to this home.
We incorporated a non standard roof pitch on the patio to match the roof pitch of the house and utilised the Cooldek Insulated roofing for the clean flat ceiling. This patio has completely transformed the outdoor living for the home owner.

This homeowners living space has been doubled with the addition of a 44m2 Stratco Cooldek Flat Patio creating an outside dining area and lounge room.

​On this project we attached to the fascia as there was enough head clearance to ensure the patio was not too low.
When considering to go either 'facia attached' or a 'flyover' the main consideration is the amount of 'head room' you will have. Each home is different and will depend on individual circumstances. 

The advantage of attaching a patio to the fascia is that it can be significantly more cost effective than a flyover as a rear beam, roof brackets and the extra roof to overlap your house room is not required.

Patio: Cooldek 50mm Insulated Roof - Fascia attached, 75x75 steel posts - 150mm Outback beam in Thunder - Edge gutter in gun metal grey​

A patio and deck is a perfect way to create a usable outdoor living space, something we all strive for when we live on the Gold Coast, Logan or South Brisbane. Our recent project in Southport, Gold Coast utilised the popular Stratco Cooldek Insulated Flyover patio with a Pacific Crows Ash deck.

The deck uses 90mm boards, a premium picture frame finish, boxed in stairs and bench seating with removable top for extra storage.

With wetter than usual times in SEQ an outdoor undercover area that doesn't leak is a necessity! Our client in Robina had a very small 'alfresco' area with no area to entertain in all seasons. 

We utilised the versitile Cooldek insulated flat roofing and attached this to the house via the fascia. This saved considerable cost compared to a flyover, but integrates seamlessly into the house.

Pool side entertaining requires a clean, professional and sophisticated patio, pavilion or cabana to really frame the area and provide protection from the harsh sun.

Our most common style is utilising a skillion Cooldek roofing with bold Merbau posts. We typically keep with a steel beam in white due to its great spanning capabilities and the colour blends in with the ceiling, leaving the natural posts as the main feature.

Since the introduction of the Stratco Edge Gutter, we always recommend our clients option this around all 4 sides to provide an unmatched level of style.

Extra covered parking space is always at the top of many home owners wish lists and the most cost effective way to do this is with a Stratco 'Skillion' roof carport.

Our customer in Arundel on the Gold Coast wanted a clean ceiling like appearance so chose to go with an insulated roof.
While insulated Cooldek roofing was once only used for patio areas, many people are choosing to go with this type of roofing for the carport due to its great looks and long spanning capability, which removes all of the internal beams that typically clutter the carport ceiling.

We can construct a wide range of carports to suit most budgets so contact us for a FREE quote.

What an outstanding outdoor living space!!!

What started as an empty backyard, has ended with more than double the living space this home originally had.
The project started out with one of our most common and elegant designs - Flyover Cooldek Insulated Patio with bold Merbau posts.

Then after we left, this home owner took the project to the NEXT LEVEL with timber look tiling, semi frameless glass balustrading, added a floor to ceiling partial wall to mount a TV and provide a 'room' feel, furnishing off with a super comfy couch and large outdoor dining table.

This project has totally transformed the way outdoor living is now experienced in this household.

An uncovered deck provides a beautiful way to take advantage of the great Gold Coast Winter sun However, a roof over the top is a MUST for any other time of the year!

On this project in Surfers Paradise, our customer had recently had their deck renovated with new decking boards and wanted to protect this while having an outdoor space to use all year round.

The Cooldek Insulated roofing we used provided a cost effective and practical solution to what our customer needed.
We also paired the Cooldek roof with the Stratco Outback 150mm beam to provide great beam spans and an uncluttered finish to the project.

A separate pool side patio is the best way to take your living area outdoors. Separating the patio from the house creates a completely different entertaining space and also allows large or growing families to have their separate spaces.

On this project, the deck was already installed but a freestanding patio roof that tied into the existing style was required.
We utilised 140x140 Merbau posts to match the existing decking boards with a Stratco Cooldek Roof with their architectural 'V-Groove' ceiling and Edge Gutter.

In Style Patios can design and build the widest range of Stratco patios in South East QLD including, the full range of Stratco Outback products. This customer in Paradise Point wanted a cost effective but elegant entertainment area that didn't break the budget. 

The Stratco Outback Cooldek patio was the best choice for this. The streamlined and Outback beam and 68x68 Outback Steel posts are paired nicely with a Cooldek Insulated Roof.

You wouldn't believe it, but you can save hundreds of dollars by using the Outback post over SHS posts keeping your project on budget!
