Frequently asked

What’s the difference between a pergola, a patio and a carport?

A pergola is an open or partly covered structure that frames an outdoor space; a patio is usually a fully covered, all-weather area; a carport shelters the car. We build all three in timber and will help you pick the right one for how you want to use the space.

Will it suit the style of my house?

Yes — that’s the advantage of a custom build over a kit. We match the timber, proportions and detailing to your home so the pergola or carport looks like it belongs, rather than something bolted on.

Do I need council approval for a pergola or carport?

It depends on the size, height and location on your property — some are exempt and some need approval. We’ll flag whether yours is likely to need it at the consult and point you in the right direction so there are no surprises.

Will it stand up to Newcastle weather?

That’s exactly what we build for. We use quality timber and proper fixings, and we detail the structure so it handles sun, wind and rain year-round — not just for the first summer.

How long does a pergola or carport take to build?

Most are a matter of days on site once we start, depending on the size, the design and the ground conditions. We give you a realistic timeframe with your fixed-price quote.
