A pergola can be used to link buildings or can extend from a door into an open garden. Freestanding wooden pergolas are ideal if you want to create an area that can benefit from a refreshing breeze and provide protection from the harsh glare of direct sunlight. A pergola can look incredible when used to provide support for flowering climbing plants that grow over the top. Available in a number of sizes with options for the awnings and screens, this metal pergola can be customised to accent your garden's aesthetic. The pergola has an elegantly striking design, blending functionality and decoration in a unique way. It also includes a 15-year structural guarantee for peace of mind. PergoSTET 3x4m Pergola

Additional Information: Installation - We do not offer installation. All our garden buildings have been designed for the DIY market and supplied with full pictorial instructions and YouTube tutorials. To ensure the very best quality, we only use slow-grown White Spruce Timber, which is harvested in cold climates to ensure solid, dense log rings. This gives the wood superior strength and longevity, and also a much more consistent colour than the likes of Pine. Dunster House are committed to promoting responsible stewardship of the environment and its natural resources. We are committed to lessening the impact on the environment caused by our own activities, and those of our suppliers. For something a little more natural-looking, the Utopia wooden garden pergola is made with slow grown spruce timber. The frame is pressure treated, which they guarantee keeps it free from rot and insect infestation for 10 years - for a low-maintenance garden structure. The pergola is a great choice if you're looking to grow climbing plants or add garden lights to your outdoor space. Blumfeldt Metal Pergola 3x6m DunstUnlike our competitors, we only use high-quality spruce timber in our garden gazebos rather than cheap pine or mixed timber. Why do we use slow grown spruce rather than the much cheaper knotty pine alternatives? Fully Pressure Treated - All our timber gazebos & pergolas are fully pressure treated as standard, reducing the likelihood of rot and insect infestation. We take the pre-cut lengths of timber and place them in a large pressure treatment tank, where the timbers are impregnated with a non-toxic preservative. We add a colourant during this process, giving the timber a rich brown colour.

All of our wooden pergolas are constructed from pressure treated, exterior CLS grade woods to ensure that they will withstand the test of time. Supplied as easy to assemble pergola kits, our redwood timber constructions are all pre-cut and machined, meaning you only need the simplest of tools to put your new pergola together. Please note: water repellent treatment is not the same as pressure treatment, which protects against rot and insect infestation, and which we guarantee for 10 Years!) All of our products are delivered using our own fleet of vehicles, not sub-contractors. We have a large number of vehicles dedicated to delivering our quality products so we can guarantee maximum care is taken during the delivery process. Natural Timber Properties - Despite the care we take in selecting the very best Timber available, it can still be unpredictable as its very nature is to be porous and swell up when it gets wet. Any wooden product will do this throughout its life, but there are a few things you can do to help limit this movement: In line with this, we preference products certified to the standards of FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification).

Wooden Pergolas

The primary purpose of a pergola is to give character to the space surrounding your home. With this in mind, your choice of pergola will ultimately depend on the look you're hoping to create. After building your timber product, this natural construction will begin to ‘settle’. This means that you will likely see some natural timber imperfections appear. These types of natural imperfections can include: Introducing the Utopia Diamond Wooden Corner Pergola, a breathtaking addition to your outdoor living space that combines elegance, functionality, and natural beauty. Crafted with precision and designed to enhance any corner of your garden or patio, this pergola is the epitome of luxurious outdoor living. Foundation - We recommend a flat, level, square concrete base with an allowance of at least 100mm on each side. e.g. A 4m by 3m building would have a base of 4.2m by 3.2m.

Powder-coated steel has the advantage of being lightweight and corrosion-resistant, although you will have to take care to avoid scratches. Steel can add a contemporary edge to the structure and your garden décor as a whole. If you intend on putting an outbuilding in front of the main elevation of your property (as it was originally built or as it was on 1st July 1948) will require Planning Permission.
