Pergola
What we build
Timber pergolas
Open or covered styles
Attached to the house or freestanding
Integrated into decks, kitchens, or seating areas
We’ll build it to suit the space — not just drop something in.
Where it works best
Pergolas aren’t just about adding shade.
They’re useful when they:
Extend your main living space outside
Create a defined area for dining or sitting
Provide shelter from Wellington wind and sun
Placed right, they get used all the time.
Placed wrong, they don’t.
More than just shade
It’s practical - but it can also shape the look of a space.
A pergola can:
Frame an outdoor area
Add structure without blocking light
Tie together decking, planting, and hard landscaping
Keep it clean and simple, or make it more of a feature - both work.
How we approach it
We keep it straightforward:
Work out how you want to use the space
Design something that fits the house and layout
Build it to handle weather and last
We’ll also be upfront about what’s worth doing — and what’s not.
Materials that make sense
Most pergolas we build are timber — it works well and suits the environment.
We’ll guide you on:
What holds up best in your conditions
How much maintenance you’re happy with
Whether you want it to blend in or stand out
A good pergola should:
Give you usable cover without blocking light
Handle wind properly
Sit in the right place so it actually gets used
Otherwise it becomes something you look at — not use.
The end result
A space that feels more complete.
Covered where it needs to be, open where it should be — and somewhere you’ll actually spend time.
The end result
A space that feels more complete.
