Patio Builders in Brookdale
Brookdale sits in Perth's south-east, a mix of rural and residential land inside the City of Armadale. The suburb took the name Brookdale in 1997, when it was renamed from the Wungong district. Newer homes now share the streets with larger rural-residential blocks. Anyone searching for a patio builder Brookdale locals can rely on needs a team that works as easily on a tidy suburban lot as on acreage.
Summers around Perth run hot and bright, while winters turn cool and wet, so cover that works in both seasons earns its place. A patio gives you shade when the sun is high and a dry spot when the rain arrives. Brookdale families who spend their days out and about can come home to an outdoor room that carries the day on well after the outing ends.
Custom Patio Designs for Homes in Brookdale
Brookdale's blend of suburban streets and rural-residential land means every property asks a different question. A compact home on a standard lot calls for a modest, tidy cover, while a home on a larger rural-residential block can carry something bigger. As a patio builder Brookdale owners can call on, we shape each design around your home's style, your yard and your daily routine.
Plenty of owners here want the patio to read as another room of the house. We set the roof height to meet your existing eaves, pick COLORBOND® colours that sit well with your roof and trims, and orient the structure to catch shade and cooling breezes as the day moves on.
On a larger block the details multiply. Boundary distances, the way water drains across flat ground, and where your sheds, tanks and gardens sit all influence where the patio can go. We map these before we draw, so the finished structure fits the wider layout of your land.
Patio Options Available in Brookdale
Great Aussie Patios builds a full range of patio styles, so you can match the right roofline to your home and the size of your Brookdale block.
Gable Patios
Gable patios lift the roof to a pitched ridge, creating headroom where hot air can rise and move on. On a larger Brookdale home or rural-residential block, that generous volume keeps the space feeling open rather than closed in.
Dome Patios
A curved roof makes dome patios a soft contrast to the straight lines of most houses. Rain slides away smoothly, and the shape becomes a feature people notice from across the garden.
Pyramid Patios
Standing apart from the house, pyramid patios suit a larger block as a pavilion of their own. Four sloping sides meet at a single point, marking out a defined spot for guests away from the main living areas.
Hip-End Patios
Hip-end patios slope on every side, giving a polished finish that echoes hipped rooflines. If your Brookdale home already has one, the patio can look as though it belonged to the original build.
Flat Patios
Flat patios keep a low profile and stay out of the way of the house. For a newer Brookdale home with clean lines, that restraint is often exactly what the design needs.
Raised Flat Patios
Where existing eaves would crowd a lower roof, raised flat patios lift the cover higher to clear them. The extra height also lets warm air drift out of the space on a hot afternoon.
Skillion Patios
A single sloping plane gives skillion patios a crisp, modern profile that suits the newer builds in Brookdale. The fall of the roof carries rain in one direction, which keeps drainage simple.
Custom Patios
When a block is irregular, a roofline is unusual or you want several uses in one space, a custom patio is the answer. Brookdale's mix of lot sizes suits this approach, because we start with your ideas and work them into a structure that fits the land.
Carports
Carports give vehicles cover on Brookdale properties, on a standard lot or a larger block. With more room on a larger block, the structure can stretch to shelter a trailer or caravan too.

Outdoor Living in Brookdale
Life in Brookdale has a relaxed, semi-rural rhythm. The suburb takes its name from Wungong Brook, and local schools include Xavier Catholic School and Australian Christian College Darling Downs. Armadale's shopping centre and train station are a short drive away.
Cover over your deck or paving turns a patch of yard into a room you can use all year. Summer afternoons stay comfortable under the roof, a family barbecue carries on through a passing winter shower, and your outdoor furniture stays out of the weather.
Many Brookdale owners are building a life on their land, whether that is a standard lot or a larger rural-residential block. A well-built patio is a practical upgrade that adds comfort now and value over the years.
Patio Approvals and Local Council Requirements in Brookdale
The City of Armadale requires a Building Permit for any patio attached to another building, whatever its size. Freestanding patios generally need one when the floor area reaches 10 square metres or the height exceeds 2.4 metres. Pergolas have a larger area threshold, so it is worth checking before you start.
Your application will usually need drawings of the structure, a plan showing how far it sits from your boundaries and the supporting forms the City requires. We work with you to assemble these documents so they are ready when you lodge as the applicant.
If a design falls outside the Residential Design Codes, such as for boundary setbacks, a planning variation may be needed. Depending on your zoning and the lot, planning approval may also apply. We talk through which of these could apply to your home and are there to help guide you as you work through them.
Our Patio Design and Installation Process

Our first visit to your Brookdale property is free and happens on site. We measure the space, ask how you plan to use it and look closely at sun and wind exposure, boundary distances, drainage and the way the patio will join your house.
Patio Design
Next comes a custom quote with visual concepts, so you can picture the finished patio on your own property. We adjust the plans with you until the style, size and materials suit you.
Council Approval
Your application to the City of Armadale stays in your name, and our approvals team supports you along the way. We help you prepare the plans and documents the City requests, support you when you lodge and keep you informed as the application moves along.
Construction and Installation
Once approval comes through, our own installation crew builds your patio. The steel and aluminium parts are made in-house at our Maddington facility, which supports consistent quality.
