Pergolas

A pergola is usually an open-structured frame with rafters or battens that can be left open or partially shaded with battens, slats, vines or shade cloth. A patio cover is typically a fully roofed structure that provides complete protection from rain. Pergolas are perfect when you want filtered light and a more architectural, garden-focused look.

Yes – when designed correctly. We can vary the spacing and orientation of rafters or battens, add shade cloth or incorporate climbing plants to create the level of shade you’re after. For full weather protection, a pergola can also be combined with a solid roof section or installed alongside a covered patio.

Pergolas are very versatile and can frame an outdoor dining area, define a garden path, create a feature entry, or sit beside a pool or courtyard. They’re ideal wherever you want visual interest, filtered shade or a structure to support climbing plants and lights.

We use durable, low-maintenance materials such as powder-coated steel and quality fixings designed for Australian conditions. This gives you the look of a contemporary, clean-lined structure without the ongoing upkeep associated with traditional timber pergolas.

In many cases, yes – particularly when a pergola is attached to the home or exceeds certain height or size limits. Requirements vary between councils. We can advise you on local regulations and provide the necessary plans and engineering if approval is needed for your project.
