Pergolas

 

Pergolas come in many shapes, sizes and styles. A pergola is an outdoor structure that helps shade walkways, passageways and seating areas. (Which is how most of our clients use them.) Below is a list of some different types of pergolas that you could choose from.

Types of Customer Pergolas designs:

 

Open-Top Pergolas:

An Open-Top pergola is an open roof structure which is designed for vines and trellises. This open roof structure gives your outdoor space a framework which gives your backyard the sense of being an indoor room. You are still subject to the elements.

 

Roof Pergolas:

These are pergolas that have a solid roof or sometimes referred to as a pavilion. They are very similar in design to an open-top pergola. A pavilion is normally a standalone structure with a fixed roof that is either fully or partially covered.

 

Vinyl Pergolas:

Vinyl pergolas can be a benefit for those who live in extreme weather conditions such as extreme heat, cold, rain, snow, sleet, wind and sun exposure. Vinyl pergolas can withstand more than your traditional wooden pergolas. Wooden structures,in extreme weather conditions, can deteriorate more rapidly over the years.

 

Steel Pergolas:

Steel pergolas are known for strength and security. Steel is a strong metal that can withstand severe weather and yet maintain its look. It offers a more modern design and is a good choice for commercial projects.

 

Gable Pergolas:

Gable roof pergolas typically have two sloping roof halves which have a triangular space at the end of the roof. Besides being very attractive, gable pergolas could also be enclosed which gives a little bit more protection from the sun and other elements. The cross beams of a gable style pergola can also be used to support shade cloth, shade screens and bamboo sun screens.

 

Sail Pergolas:

Sail pergolas, even though they are not considered a pergola in the true sense, have become very popular in recent years. Sail pergolas are also known as shade sails. Typically a large canvas is stretched between several poles of varying heights. They come in many different colors and can be used in conjunction with the more traditional open roof pergolas.

Outdoor Fireplace and Kitchen:

 

Outdoor fireplaces can add to the ambience of your backyard. They could be standalone or built-in. They can be gas, wood or even electric. They create warmth for those cold brisk evenings or a place to gather together to roast marshmallows for s’mores. It’s great to sit around with friends and family to enjoy the evening conversation, laughter and fun. Outdoor fireplaces come in metal, stone, stucco, clay and many more types of materials.

They can be part of an overall outdoor kitchen plan. They can even come with a pizza oven built over the top.

Outdoor kitchens have become very popular these days. Creating an additional living space where you can enjoy food, drinks and the ball game and much more. They can include refrigerators, dishwashers, cooktops, pizza ovens, fireplaces, TV’s and dining areas. The sky’s the limit on your own personal outdoor kitchen. You never need to go back into the house to get supplies. It can be all there in your outdoor kitchen to make it more convenient to entertain your family and guests. Pool parties and kids swimming in the pool can now be fully enjoyed outdoors with a kitchen to refresh with or even a fireplace in the evening to help you dry off. What a way to relax in your own lap of luxury and never have to leave your home. STAYCATION!
