All Green Tree service downed by sectioning and cleaning branches with that chipper/grinder. They kept their safety promise, grinded both stumps below ground level and did a fine job for a good price. Thank You, Michael C. 2-15-24, (530)246-1755..."

"The project from design to install to completion was superior. The Benty Team arrived on time or early every day; worked often times well past the end of the day; was very familiar with what was to be done each day; resolved unexpected problems; and left the site clean and safe each day. The work was done on time. All material installed surpassed what was expected. The yard (front and back) is the most beautiful in the neighborhood.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can build a pergola yourself or with a helper after you obtain any necessary building permits. A pergola can be as simple or complex as you like. Building a pergola is an excellent way to showcase your DIY skills and learn new ones along the way.

Turnbuckle weight loads vary depending on their size. Smaller 1/4-inch turnbuckles have a weight capacity of about 500 pounds. A 3/8-inch diameter turnbuckle, which is strong enough to handle most residential fence gates, can handle a working load of 1,200 pounds. Larger 1/2-inch diameter models have a limit of 4,000 pounds.

Installation typically takes 2-5 days, depending on the structure size and site preparation.

Wood, vinyl, and metal are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.

There are a few differences between pergolas and gazebos. Both structures provide shade, but pergolas are more minimalistic, with four posts and a terraced roof. Gazebos usually have an elevated floor and are typically shaped like a polygon with six or eight open-air sides and two small sets of steps leading up to the platform. Gazebos also tend to have pointed, shingled roofs and ornate accents. If you want a structure that keeps out water on rainy days, a gazebo may be a better option—though you can purchase an awning to go over your pergola to keep out water.
