Are Pergolas Expensive?

Given the ability of pergolas to fit almost any design scheme, it’s no wonder that many homeowners are drawn to them. They are simple, understated, and elegant. Plus, they give your backyard just the right amount of shade. But are pergolas expensive?

How A Pergola’s Cost Is Calculated

As with any home improvement project, what you spend on your pergola will depend heavily on your personal preferences. Homeowners who want huge pergolas that run the length of their home will spend more than someone who wants a simple freestanding garden pergola. Some of the other elements to consider include:

Material Cost

Cheaper doesn’t necessarily mean inferior. However, spending a little more on materials upfront can often pay dividends down the road. For example, wood pergolas are relatively cheap and look nice, but as the years go by, they become prone to rot and infestation. By opting for a hardier material, like aluminum, homeowners can get more years out of their pergola.

Installation Costs

Many homeowners choose to install their pergolas by themselves. Since they are relatively simple structures, this is a great way to save some money. But, it’s also important to remember that installation, even by experienced pros, is relatively inexpensive. You can trust that a professional installation will stand the test of time, which could save homeowners money over the year, since they’ll have to do less repairs.
