Frequently Asked Questions












Most pergolas are completed within 1–2 weeks, depending on design and material selection.
In some cases, yes. We can advise on local requirements and assist with approvals if needed.
Absolutely. We’ll ensure your pergola complements the style, colour, and structure of your property.
We mostly use a Stratco product called Cooldek, which offers low maintenance, insulation, and wide spans—but we’re happy to build traditional timber pergolas too. We’ll recommend the best option based on your location, preferences, and budget.
