Custom Wood & Cedar Pergolas

A pergola features an open, slatted roof design that allows partial sunlight and airflow, whereas a patio cover has a solid roof for complete weather protection. Pergolas are ideal for defining a space and providing dappled shade.

The amount of shade depends on the size and spacing of the top slats (purlins). We can customize the spacing to provide your preferred balance of sunlight and shade.

We primarily build robust, heavy-timber pergolas using premium woods like cedar, which are naturally resistant to rot and insects. We can also discuss other durable material options during your consultation.

Wood pergolas will need to be cleaned and re-stained or sealed periodically to maintain their color and protect against weathering. The frequency depends on sun exposure and the type of finish used.
