"Billy, the owner of The Angry Beaver Stump Grinding, did a tremendous job for us today. He removed 19 stumps around our pool area and fence, working carefully and skillfully to avoid any damage to our stamped concrete and fencing. From start to finish, Billy was professional, courteous, and efficient. He asked for pictures of the stumps beforehand to make sure he could accurately assess the job — a level of preparation that really stood out. His work was completed right on schedule, and the price was very fair (I got three quotes, and his was the most reasonable). I highly recommend The Angry Beaver Stump Grinding for any stump removal project — top-notch service, quality work, and great communication. "

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

Although dependent on the type and size of lumber, most 2-by-4-by-8-foot pieces of lumber cost anywhere from $3 to $6. Softwood lumber like pine falls on the lower end of the spectrum, while hardwood lumber like oak or walnut falls on the higher end. Different retailers and lumber yards can also vary in price, so it helps to shop around to compare prices.

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

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).

You can install exposed solid wood beams for between $6 and $80 per linear foot, but these beams are often decorative if you’re retrofitting an existing home with them. Laminated veneer lumber beams, more commonly called LVL beams, cost $3 to $12 per linear foot, and while they can’t span nearly as long of a distance as steel I-beams, they can provide more open spaces than traditional wooden beams.
