Pacific Patio and their team of professionals are very good. It starts with Tim, he maps out the plan. Then Tamara doing all necessary things behind the scenes (document, finance, communication etc). She’s by far the best costumer service I have dealt with. She will follow up on everything about the project.…

We had a very positive experience in using Texas Patio to expand our covered patio and roof line. They also excavated our backyard with a nice garden retaining wall. They offered great suggestions with the design and were great to communicate with.

We waited ten years to have a new patio cover installed. Pacific Patio far exceeded our expectations!! We are so happy with the work they did. They were very efficient and completed the job in 2-3 days. The new Patio Cover really upgraded the look of our back yard and we are so happy that we chose Pacifica Patio.

We needed a car port/patio cover (unusual situation) and contacted Texas Patios plus. They came out quickly to take a look. The quote took a little bit, but again we had a somewhat unique need.

How we grade

Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.

Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.

Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.

Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.

Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
