If you are looking for the perfect way to add beauty and interest to an outdoor space at your home, adding a Pergola Cover or Pavilion, can turn your vision into reality.   But as you begin your search, you probably realized there are basically 3 ways to go:   DIY and build stick by stick, purchase a pre-fab pergola from a home improvement store or online store, or hire a professional contractor to Custom Design and Install your Pergola Cover or Pavilion.   So here are some things to think about when making your decision:

 

  1.  DIY – if you love home projects and are super handy with tools, design, etc. this might be the way to go.
  2. Order a Pre-fab Pergola Cover or Pavilion – very limited options to choose from including size, color, style/look, durability & upkeep of product, maximum weight load limits (which here in Wisconsion & Illinois you definitely want to make sure your Pergola is strong enough to withstand heavy snow loads & won’t cave in when the first big snow comes).   Also check the product and installation warranties – typically pretty limited.  
  3. Custom Designed and Installed Pergola or Pavilion – will be designed and built exactly the way you want it!  You choose the size you want, color you love, style/look you’ve dreamed of, whether you want it attached to your home or a stand alone Pavilion in your favorite yard spot.   And, you can even choose if you want it to be an Operable (motorized) Pergola which you can open to bring in the sunshine or close for shade and to keep the weather elements out.

An attached pergola is fastened to the exterior of your home, so its perfect if you’re looking to add partial shade to a front porch or backyard patio.

Operable with the Push of a Button

Our Operable Pergolas have a movable roof that can switch from an open lattice roof to a solid roof.  These Pergolas allow you to enjoy the sunshine when it’s beautiful outside; or close  the roof when the rays become too intense or to keep you dry when it rains.  With the push of a button, the roof slats can open or close.   It’s that easy!

Freestanding

Our freestanding Pergolas can be placed anywhere around a property, giving you the flexibility to choose exactly where you want your Pergola to be.
