Whether your seeking shade in a swimming pool, lounging in the backyard or cooking the perfect barbeque, a pergola can give you some reprieve from the hot sun while adding interest to your yard.

A great pergola needs to look the part, plus blend with its surrounding landscape and architecture, while stand up to the elements rain, hail or shine.

That’s why we offer a range of options when it comes to pergolas, so you can dress it up or down as you please. Choose from roof style options like flat roof, gable roof, dutch gable or a combination of both. We also offer the option for you to select whether it's freestanding to provide practical shade where you need it most, or attached to your home to create a functional and enjoyable outdoor space.

Let’s get started and find out what your perfect pergola looks like.

Skillion Roof Pergolas

Seeking an edgy, contemporary look? Our skillion roof pergolas could be your ideal choice. With their asymmetrical design and striking angular lines, these pergolas create a dramatic visual impact. But they're not just about aesthetics; the slanted roof allows for improved water runoff, making them a practical choice in areas with heavy rainfall. See our skillion roof pergola build options. 

Gable Roof Pergolas

If you're a fan of traditional pergola ideas with a twist, you'll love our gable roof pergolas. With their high, peaked roofs, these pergolas provide excellent ventilation, keeping your outdoor area cool even on hot summer days. Plus, the open design allows plenty of natural light in, perfect for those who want to bask in the sun without getting burned. See our gable pergola build options. 

Dutch gable pergolas 

A Dutch gable pergola combines a gable and hip roof, adding height and style to your outdoor space. It offers good airflow & solid weather protection. See our dutch gable pergola build options. 

Hip roof pergolas 

A hip roof pergola has sloping sides that provide solid shade and weather protection. Its classic design suits a variety of Aussie homes, offering both durability and great ventilation for outdoor living areas. See our hip roof pergola build options.
