"I was scheduled for lawn service on July 3, but provider never showed up or contacted me that he wouldn't be able to service my lawn for that day. I texted him and asked what happened? He stated he was overwhelmed and that he would stop by July 4 or July 5 to service my lawn. July 4 came and went with no call or no show. I then texted and stated if he was not able to service my lawn then I would have to hire someone else. He replied, okay. Very unprofessional. I would never recommend or rehire Superior Lawn Care LLC again."

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.

Though this is a project that can be DIY-ed—there are kits available for $600 to $7,500—hiring a pergola pro will ensure the final product is structurally sound. A savvy homeowner may already have all the necessary tools and know-how to build a DIY pergola, but the difference in cost isn’t that much, and having help will make the process easier in general.

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).

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.

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.
