"I hired Hugh to prepare our building site and he left me with all kinds of problems. He did not clear the site for the house where we wanted it, did not hire an engineer for plans to build the retaining wall and has left us with so many problems. The retaining wall did not pass inspection. I had to hire an Engineer to draw plans up and it has cost me so far 36k to take his wall apart and put it back so I could back out of my driveway without falling down a 10 foot embankment. I took him off the job and he went to MCNeelys and told them I approved for him to take 4 loads of rock which I did not and I don't know where he brought the material but it was not on my site. I paid for all the material for his work he had done, and 36K for just labor and he has now put a lein on my property. The person he hired to do the work quit becasue he was cutting so many corners. I would never reccomend him for site work. "

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Both cedar and redwood are some of the best woods for pergolas. Both are rot- and insect-resistant and have gorgeous natural tones that age well. Redwood tends to have a longer life span than cedar, but it also comes at a higher cost. While both options are durable, the best wood between these two for your pergola will primarily depend on your budget.

If you have a knack for DIYing, a trellis can be built from scratch from all kinds of materials. However, if time is of the essence, it’s far easier to buy a trellis ready-made and put it together at home.

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.

If you are installing a fiberglass pool, you may want to install or update your patio or deck at the same time to create a safe, comfortable place to sit and dry off or grab a bite to eat after swimming. You might also consider adding a hot tub to the mix, which costs $6,000 on average.

Costs depend on material, size, design complexity, and additional features like lighting or seating.
