What type of pergola or louvre roof is best?

What’s best for you is what works for your outdoor area and your specific requirements. It's about finding the right materials and style for what you want to achieve. The team at Zones Sydney - Northern Beaches have a vast amount of experience in building pergolas. They are experienced in pergola design and can create a pergola that helps you make the most of your outdoor space. 

There are many different pergola designs to match with your house and garden style – from country or coastal, to formal or classic. The materials you choose tend to set the tone, for example, brick pillars or oak beams are ideal for a country look while reclaimed hardwood beams and driftwood evokes a coastal feel. A pergola made from machine-rounded wooden poles could be perfect for a riverside garden, while pillars made from native stone in combination with rough-hewn wooden beams are great for an alpine mountain garden. For a roof garden, a light pergola might be the best option and you could consider using strained galvanised wires for overhead climbers. If you prefer a more formal or classic design, smooth stone columns with planed, shaped wooden beams is a great option. Brick pillars or smooth beams work well in many town gardens.

No matter what style of pergola you choose, it should be designed to meet your specific requirements and work with the style of your house. Thinking about use and functionality early on will help you nail the design and avoid mistakes or changes that can cost a lot once building has commenced. When brainstorming pergola ideas, there are some things you might need to consider: is your pergola designed for sun protection only, or do you want to use it for rain protection too? Do you need a heat source? Would you prefer roof protection only, or would you like to include wall louvres or side panels? A pergola can be turned into an outdoor room for year-round use.

How much does a pergola and louvre roof cost in Sydney’s Northern Beaches?

The cost of installing a pergola or louvre roof at your Sydney Northern Beaches property will depend on a few things. For starters, do you want to proceed with a timber pergola or a louvre roof? How big is the space you want your pergola or louvre roof to cover? Do you want it attached or separate from the house?

These are key questions that will determine the cost and budget you’ll require for your project but are questions that your local Landscaping Consultant will have the answers to. Discuss your pergola and louvre roof ideas with them and they will be able to provide you with a fixed quote accurate to your project so you know exactly how much your project will cost prior to starting.

Do you need a permit to build a pergola or louvre roof?

Depending on the size of your pergola or louvre roof you may need a permit from the local council to install it at your property. Your local Landscaping Consultant can advise you on this and if you do require consent, they can organise the paperwork, documentation, and oversee the application process to ensure your project can continue successfully.
