Where Wood Belongs in Georgetown
The most beautiful town square in Texas sits inside a historic district. The covers nearby should behave accordingly.
Old Town Georgetown, the streets around the square and the older neighborhoods off University Avenue have homes from the early 1900s onward: deep porches, standing seam roofs, limestone and wood siding. An aluminum cover on those houses looks wrong and may not pass historic review. A cedar cover with period-appropriate proportions, a matching roof and posts that echo the porch columns looks like it was always there.
Wood also suits the stone-and-cedar homes in Berry Creek, Cimarron Hills and along Williams Drive. The honest cost is maintenance: re-stain every few years, keep the flashing sound. We build to minimize it: kiln-dried cedar, steel post standoffs, a properly flashed ledger and a roof that sheds water.

- Shingle roof matched to the house, or standing seam metal

Where Wood Fails, and How Ours Doesn’t
At the ledger and the post bases. Almost never in the beams.
We flash the ledger properly, set posts on steel standoffs above the slab, seal end grain, use coated or stainless fasteners and put a real roof over the whole thing. Built that way, a cedar cover in Georgetown outlasts several rounds of stain.
