Enhance your garden with a pergola

Dreaming of a summer kitchen or a classic garden canopy in the sunny spot of your yard?
With pergola building instructions, you can create a charming garden shelter to complement your outdoor living area. You can optionally add a transparent roof to the pergola, making it usable even in unpredictable weather. It’s also possible to attach privacy screens, plant hooks, or even a sunshade fabric to provide protection from the scorching sun.

If you’re unsure whether a pergola requires a building permit or not, here are some helpful reminders:

• Uncovered pergola and small greenhouse → do not require a permit
• Wooden shelter, gazebo, grill shelter, and covered terrace/pergola → require a permit

After clarifying any potential building permit requirements, think about what kind of pergola best suits your needs and where you’d like to place it in your yard.
