How much will a patio or pergola cost?
This is the question we hear all the time, and here's our honest answer: every outdoor entertainment project is unique. The parameters vary dramatically because of project size, materials, design complexity, site conditions and your specific vision.
To gain a clearer understanding, we recommend requesting a free project assessment, allowing our team to better assess the unique needs of your project.
During the assessment our team will explain what it means to design an outcome that meets the vision you have in mind, while aligning with your budget. We’ll guide you on the different materials available and help you choose the best ones for your specific environment.
This collaborative approach means your budget works harder, delivering exactly the outdoor entertainment space you've envisioned without compromise.
