What is The Difference Between a Patio Cover and a Pergola?
A patio cover is a solid roof structure attached to your home or built as a free standing feature. It provides complete protection from sun, rain and elements creating a comfortable outdoor living space that can be enjoyed throughout much of the year. Patio covers are ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, grilling, and relaxing regardless of the weather.
A pergola is an open-roof structure featuring overhead beams and rafters that allow sunlight and airflow to pass through. Pergolas create partial shade and adde architectural beauty to a backyard while maintaining an open, airy feel. Pergolas are often used to define outdoor spaces, support climbing plants or create a focal point within a landscape.
A custom pergola creates a comfortable outdoor space while maintaining an open-air feel. Whether attached to your home or freestanding in the backyard, a pergola adds architectural interest, partial shade, and a natural gathering place for entertaining. There are multiple pergola design options including: cedar, covered, attached, freestanding, and pergolas with lighting. Each style is customized to fit each home, budget, and style!
