"We had a growing depression in our front yard and contacted so many companies, but no one followed through. After getting nowhere, we found Mr. Allen on Angie’s List — and we’re so glad we did. He responded quickly, came out the very next day to assess the issue, and gave us an estimate. Just three days later, the work was completed. He communicated clearly throughout the process and truly knew what he was doing.

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Trellises offer versatility beyond just attaching to a fence because they provide privacy and shade. They can serve as standalone features in your garden or deck or as panel screens in pergolas. Plus, you can find trellises in various design options, including diamond-shaped or checker patterns, making working with trellises very creative and fun.
