Pergola systems

A pergola is a basic structure you can build in your yard to provide an outdoor living space. A pergola may appear simple as it only comes with vertical and roof beams without any solid walls. Having one can transform your yard into an awesome outdoor space.

What do Pergolas Offer?

Additional Living Space

A patio or deck provides an additional outdoor living space where you can enjoy some relaxation. However, when it is too hot, it’s impossible to stay on your deck or patio. If you love staying in the outdoor spaces of your home but want some protection, building a pergola can solve the problem.

Protection from the Sun

A pergola will not completely protect you from the scorching heat of the sun. However it can to a certain extent, block the sun and allow you to have some outdoor fun. If you want more sun protection, install lightweight fabric coverings that will not disrupt the appeal of your pergola.

Shaded Space for Entertaining Guests

It’s more fun to entertain guests in your yard during the summer, so you and your guests can enjoy some fresh air. Pergolas can provide you with some amount of protection from the sun as well.

The versatility of your pergola is such that you can adjust its angle depending on where the sun strikes most. Aside from providing protection against the sun, it provides an outdoor space where you can entertain.

Space to Showcase Plants

If you want to enhance your yard with plants, a pergola is perfect. They’re perfect for growing plants and vines that need structural support such as ivy, grapes, and hops.

Hanging and climbing plants are able to provide shade from the sun. They are also able to provide a beautiful view of your yard with added privacy as well.

Define your Outdoor Space

A pergola will help define your outdoor living area. This is because they are open and airy. They allow you to accomplish this without making the space feel small or confined. When combined with flooring you can further define your outdoor living space.
