Pergolas

Pergolas Done Properly

A pergola is an open structure with a slatted or battened roof, rather than a solid sheet, so it filters the sun instead of blocking it out completely.

It is the perfect way to define an outdoor zone, add dappled shade over a seating area, and give climbing plants something to grow across.

We build pergolas in powder-coated aluminium, engineered for Perth conditions and finished to suit your home in any Colorbond colour.

Filtered shade

Slats soften the sun without closing the space in, keeping it light and open.

Defines a zone

A pergola frames a seating or dining area and gives the yard structure.

Near maintenance-free

Powder-coated aluminium resists weather and fading with almost no upkeep required.

Pairs with a paved alfresco

A pergola over a concrete or paved alfresco creates a defined, shaded outdoor room.

Great for climbing plants

Aluminium battens carry climbing plants such as passionfruit or bougainvillea beautifully as they establish.

Adjustable roof option

A louvred pergola lets you tilt the slats open for a breeze or closed to shed rain, giving you flexible, all-weather use.

Powder-Coated Aluminium Pergolas

Aluminium is the ideal pergola material for Perth conditions. It does not warp, split or crack as seasons change, and powder-coating gives you any colour in the Colorbond range so the pergola can be matched precisely to your home.

Aluminium holds its shape over time

Unlike other materials, aluminium does not warp or crack as it dries and weathers through Perth summers. For a long, slender batten run, aluminium stays straighter with no seasonal movement and no repainting required.

Pergola or Patio

The difference comes down to the roof. A patio has a solid roof that keeps rain and sun off completely, while a pergola has an open slatted roof that filters light and lets some weather through.

Dappled shade rather than full cover

Want the best of both?

An adjustable louvre roof lets you tilt the slats open for a breeze or closed to shed rain, so a louvred pergola works more like a patio when you need it to.

Approvals and Engineering

Pergolas for a Perth home

Many pergolas need a building permit in the City of Joondalup, depending on size, location on the block and height. We check the specific requirements for your site before designing, so there are no approval surprises.

  • We check permit requirements for your block size, zone and pergola position
  • We prepare the structural drawings and lodge the building permit application on your behalf
  • Engineering calculations are included in the permit submission for any permitted structure
  • We advise on setback and height limits that affect your pergola design options

Pergolas support climbing plants

A powder-coated aluminium pergola is an ideal structure for climbing plants such as passionfruit, wisteria or bougainvillea. We size the aluminium battens to carry the extra weight once plants are established.
