Custom Patios Designed For the Way You Live

Transform your backyard into a space you'll actually use year-round. Whether you're after a covered entertaining area or a seamless extension of your living space, Trueline designs and builds custom patios tailored to your home.

Choose a Style That Suits Your Home

Every Trueline patio starts with the right structure for your space, then we tailor it to your home, lifestyle, and budget.

Insulated Patios

The most popular choice for Australian homes. Insulated roofing panels keep your outdoor space cooler in summer and warmer in winter, making it genuinely usable year-round. Available in flat, gable, flyover, and twin roof configurations.

Louvred Patios

Louvered roofs let you control light, airflow, and weather protection at the press of a button. Open up on clear days, close down when the rain comes in. Ideal for backyards, balconies, and pool decks.

Steel Patios

A robust, cost-effective option that doesn't compromise on quality. Steel patios are built to handle Australia's toughest conditions and suit a wide range of home styles and block sizes.

Pavilion Rendered Patios

Architecturally inspired, with sculpted columns and rendered finishes that become the outdoor centrepiece of any home. Designed to feel like part of the original build.
Not sure which style suits your home? We'll help you decide.

Where Your Home Ends, the Living Space Doesn't Have To

Extend Your Living Space: Create a functional outdoor room that works for entertaining, relaxing, and everyday family life.

Year-Round Weather Protection: Stay shaded in summer, sheltered in rain, and comfortable in winter with a roof built for Australian conditions.

Add Property Value: A well-designed patio is a permanent improvement that buyers notice. It's one of the highest-return additions you can make to a home.

Enjoy the Outdoors on Your Terms: Control light, airflow, and privacy with the right roof system for your lifestyle.
Extra relaxation space to enjoy outdoors
A comfortable place to relax

Patios allow you to unwind and enjoy the outdoors in the comfort of your backyard. The simple pleasure of sitting back with a cup of coffee or enjoying lunch or dinner with friends or family is more enjoyable.  For added luxury and comfort, you could include extra lounge chairs, other furniture and decorations to enhance your relaxation experience.

Extra recreational space
Additional recreational outdoor space
A patio can be used as an additional recreational area and an extension to your living room. Creating a cohesive space for family and friends to gather during events. The outdoor structure with a customisable roof offers protection from direct sunlight and rain. Allowing you to enjoy the outdoors regardless of weather conditions.
Chance to Increase the value of your home
It can increase the value of your home

If you ever decide to sell your house, having an existing outdoor patio can increase the value of the property. When people are searching for their next home, the existence of an outdoor area can really be a deciding factor. Additionally, the increase in value of your property can cover the initial costs of building a patio with plenty to spare.

Integration with a garden
It gives you extra storage space

Expanding your home with an outdoor patio can double as extra storage space to help declutter areas inside the house. For example, having an outdoor kitchen or dining area could halve the storage space being used inside the house.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

A patio is an outdoor living space with non-pervious roofing that provides protection from the elements. They can be attached or freestanding, and usually include gutters and downpipes to manage rainfall. Often used for entertaining, they provide a functional and aesthetically pleasing outdoor space.

The key difference is weather protection. A patio has a solid, non-pervious roof that keeps out rain and sun. A pergola traditionally uses an open or semi-open structure, which means less protection from the elements and no need for gutters or downpipes. If year-round usability matters to you, a patio is generally the better choice. Detailed information on the differences can be found here.

An alfresco is typically built as part of the original home, integrated into the roof line and appearing seamless with the main structure. A patio is an addition to an existing home, attached to the building without altering the original roofline. Both serve the same purpose as outdoor living and entertaining spaces.

Depending on the style you choose, our patios are built using insulated roofing panels, steel roofing, structural posts, and can have translucent inserts to bring in natural light. All materials are Australian-made and selected for performance in local conditions.

In most cases, yes. The good news is Trueline manages the entire approvals process on your behalf, including engineering, drafting, certifier engagement, and any siting relaxations or development applications required.

The cost of a patio depends on the following:

  • Size
  • Design complexity
  • Materials chosen

Fortunately, our team has been designing and building patios for decades and can help you with a solution that meets your budget. One of our friendly team members is standing by to help you today.

Build time varies depending on the size, complexity, and materials of your design. A straightforward patio can be completed in a day or two. Larger or more complex builds may take longer. Your design consultant will give you a clear timeframe during the consultation so you know what to expect before work begins.

Built with quality materials and proper maintenance, a Trueline patio is designed to last a lifetime. Our warranty reflects that commitment:

  • 10 Year Product Guarantee
  • 15 Year Workmanship Guarantee
  • 20 Year Base Metal Guarantee
  • 30 Year Corrosion Resistance

ZipTrak Accredited dealer · Melbourne
Now in Melbourne · Trueline Blinds

Your patio,
now all-weather.

ZipTrak® outdoor blinds turn your covered area into a room you can use through wind, rain and the cooler months — measured and fitted by our accredited local dealer.

You asked — we listened

Over the past year a few of you asked us about outdoor blinds, and we had to say we couldn't help. That's changed.

Trueline now offers ZipTrak® outdoor blinds in Melbourne. We've teamed up with an accredited local ZipTrak dealer to handle the measure, the order and the install — so you get the same quality and care you'd expect from us, now covering your whole outdoor space.

What ZipTrak® gives you

Four reasons it just works

Track-guided, Australian-made and built for our weather — here's what you actually feel day to day.

All-weather, all year

Hold off wind, driving rain and the harsh western sun — so the patio you love in summer keeps working through the cooler months.

One-hand operation

ZipTrak's track-guided design glides up and down and holds at any height. No zips, no cords, no ropes to wrestle.

Privacy on your terms

Pick your outlook — sheer mesh that keeps the breeze and the view, or full block-out when you want the room closed in.

Measured & made to fit

Every blind is check-measured on site and made to order — no awkward gaps, no off-the-shelf compromise.

The everyday of it

Spaces that keep working

Keep the long lunch going

Drop the blinds when the southerly rolls in and the table stays put. The afternoon doesn't have to move indoors.

Ready when the weather turns

Mesh or PVC blinds take the sting out of wind-driven rain, so your outdoor setting and timber stay protected.

A warmer cup of coffee outside

Block-out blinds trap warmth under your patio roof — the outdoor room earns its keep in July, not just January.

Better together

Blinds and a patio roof, planned together

Already have a Trueline patio roof, or weighing one up? Plan your ZipTrak® blinds alongside it for a fully enclosed, all-season room. We'll line up the design so the roof and blinds work as one — and bring in our accredited ZipTrak dealer to measure and fit the blinds.

ZipTrak® is the Australian-made, track-guided outdoor blind trusted on homes right across the country. We've partnered with an accredited ZipTrak dealer in Melbourne so you get that quality — measured, made and installed by specialists — with Trueline managing it end to end.
