Choosing The Best Pergola Design for Your Garden
2
Tired of your monotonous and ideal outdoor space?
Pergolas are the most affordable and elegant
option if youre willing to create a separate
space to rejuvenate and relax outside. With the
attractive pergola designs, you no longer have to
worry about adding value to your space. The first
thing you must consider is whats the purpose of
having a pergola? You can create a pergola for
entertaining guests or enjoying barbeques. The
shape, size, and design of your pergola can
depend on factors like the kind of access,
privacy quotient, amount of shade you want, along
with how you want to use your available space.
Regardless of the pergolas overall finish and
texture, it would be best if you considered
factors like compatibility of the pergolas
architecture and size with your houses overall
appeal and aesthetics. How to pick and choose
the right material for a pergola? Wood Wood is
one of the most common and conventional materials
used for constructing a pergola. As wood is
available in wide varieties, the option of
creating a much-needed design can depend on
individual choices.

Hardwoods are expensive, yet they are perfect for
adding bit durability and contemporary appeals to
conventional homes. On the other hand, softwood
is pre-treated and relatively cheap. You can use
it for constructing beams and posts. You can add
a rich texture to your softwood with wood stains.
If youre willing to use wood stain, you can use
planed wood. You can stain the wood before
creating the pergola or before assembling it. If
you want to give your pergola a rustic or an
organic feel, you can use timber. While wood
requires proper maintenance as its more prone to
moisture, termites, or fungi, timber requires
minimal maintenance. However, you can use wood
preservatives or an effective wooden coating. For
wood thats used outdoors, oil-based
preservatives can work wonders. Alternatively,
you can go for a western red cedar that can
naturally resist moisture and pests. Steel In
comparison to wooden pergolas, steel pergolas can
cut it to minimize the chances of decay.

You can use treated steel to minimize the chances
of the materials oxidation, which can ultimately
prevent rust or corrosion. From the installation
perspective, steel can be installed more quickly
than wood as it requires less support and has a
low volume. Hence, this makes steel the most
popular choice among contemporary
homeowners. Aluminum The easy to maintain and
lightweight features of the alloy make it an
ideal choice for pergolas, especially youre
living around the sea. As the humidity or salt
air of the sea can lead to corrosion of materials
like steel, aluminum pergolas will cut it. For
more protection and wide color varieties, you can
choose powder-coated aluminum. You can also go
for a custom pergola.
