Outdoor Structures & Pavilions in Florida
We design and build pavilions, covered patios with metal roofing panels, pergolas, gazebos—and more. Wood post-and-beam structures, bamboo fencing and tiki bars, cypress mantels, and outdoor walls with SmartSiding finishes. Built for Florida sun, rain, and wind.
Lucas General Contractors builds outdoor structures that hold up to sun, rain, and wind. We use wood framing and offer roof options that fit your climate: natural or synthetic thatch, shingles, or metal roofing panels (e.g. Tuff Rib or standing-seam style) as part of the structure—not as a standalone roofing contractor service.
We're based in LaBelle and serve Florida statewide. Whether you want a pavilion by the pool, a patio cover with metal panels, a pergola, a gazebo, valet structures, or fencing and finishes like bamboo and SmartSiding, we work with you on size, materials, and style so the result fits your property and budget.

What We Build
From pavilions and patio covers to bamboo fencing, cypress mantels, and outdoor walls with SmartSiding finishes—we build and finish outdoor structures and related work across Florida.
Open or semi-enclosed with tongue-and-groove ceilings; thatch, shingle, or metal panel roofs. Poolside, backyard, or entry.
Wood-framed covers with metal roofing panels (e.g. Tuff Rib). Not aluminum—wood post-and-beam with metal panel roofing.
Open or partially covered for shade and definition. Fabric, slats, or metal panels to suit.
Freestanding or attached; thatched, shingle, or metal panel roof.
Wood-framed shade with optional metal panel roof for maximum coverage.
Valet stands and tropical shade covers—fixed or portable, thatched. Restaurants, hotels, venues.
Solid framing, thatch or other roof options. Same build quality as our dedicated tiki and bar work.
Privacy or accent fencing that incorporates bamboo for a tropical, natural look. Standalone or with wood framing.
Tiki bars or bar areas built or finished with bamboo for an authentic tropical feel. Pairs with thatch and wood.
Outdoor or indoor-outdoor cypress mantels for fireplaces and feature walls. Natural, durable wood.
Outdoor walls, screens, or enclosures finished with SmartSiding (engineered wood siding) for a clean, durable finish.
Cypress slab bar tops (e.g. 12" at 40" height), supported post to post with 6x6 or between posts.
Non-load-bearing or load-bearing walls on one side of a tiki hut or structure—can act as entertainment center or privacy wall.
Fencing, Bamboo & Specialty Finishes
Beyond pavilions and covered structures, we build and install fencing with bamboo, bamboo tiki bars and accents, cypress bar tops and mantels, and outdoor walls with SmartSiding finishes. These pair well with our thatched structures and wood decks for a cohesive outdoor look.
- Fences with bamboo — Privacy or accent fencing that uses bamboo for a tropical, natural look. Can be standalone bamboo or combined with wood framing for structure and longevity.
- Bamboo tiki bars — Outdoor tiki bars or bar areas built or finished with bamboo for an authentic tropical feel. Pairs with thatch roofs and wood framing.
- Cypress bar tops — Bar tops built from cypress slab (for example, a 12" cypress slab at 40" height) with support from post to post. We can use square posts (e.g. 6x6) or run the bar between existing posts.
- Privacy walls & entertainment walls — Separate from the bar: we add walls on one side of a tiki hut or structure (non-load-bearing or load-bearing). The wall can act as an entertainment center (TV, shelving, etc.) or as a privacy wall. Finished with wood, SmartSiding, or other materials to match the build.
- Cypress mantels — Outdoor or indoor-outdoor cypress mantels for fireplaces and feature walls. Cypress is naturally resistant to decay and suits Florida conditions.
- Outdoor walls with SmartSiding — Outdoor walls, screens, or enclosures finished with SmartSiding (engineered wood siding) for a clean, durable finish that holds up to weather.
Materials & Build Quality
We build with wood post-and-beam construction. Roof options include natural or synthetic thatch, architectural shingles, or metal roofing panels installed as part of the structure. For covered patios and shade structures, metal panel roofs (e.g. Tuff Rib) give long life and minimal upkeep in Florida rain and sun. We do not offer standalone roof replacement or roofing contractor services—we build the structure and install metal panels as the roof system for that structure.
Framing is designed for wind and load. We can coordinate with engineering or permits as needed for your jurisdiction. Clean jobsite, clear communication, and a finished product that fits how you use your outdoor space.
