Arborists questions, answered by experts

The average cost to build a pergola ranges from $2,200 to $6,400, whereas the average cost of an awning ranges from $1,400 to $4,400, meaning that an awning tends to be less expensive to build or install than a pergola. Ultimately, the less expensive option depends on a few factors, including size, quality of materials used, and location.

Yes, it’s definitely possible to build a pergola on an existing deck. All you need to do is attach the pergola support beams to the deck’s joists and build up from there. Beware that mistakes can damage your deck, so if you’re at all unsure of the process, play it safe and hire a pro for your custom build.

For optimal sun exposure, strategically place your trellises along the northern boundary of your garden bed or adjacent to a fence or wall. Conversely, consider situating the trellises on the southern side in sun-drenched locales to create soothing shade for heat-sensitive plants, effectively screening and sheltering them from the scorching summer sun.

Pergolas and similar overhead outdoor structures will typically be subject to building code regulations. Every municipality is different, and some may have specs or permit requirements, so it’s important to double-check. Some HOAs may also have restrictions on what you can build, so be sure to check with your HOA as well (if applicable).

While your municipality may have its own regulations requiring pergolas or other structures to be a certain height above a fire pit, the standard recommendation is that the pergola should be at least 10 feet above the fire pit. A taller pergola allows the heat from the flames to dissipate before reaching the structure.
