Initially, we interviewed three (3) companies on Angi's list and were impressed with all three. Paramount's offer was accepted. Luis Vasquez was easy to work with; he is a good communicator and his team was superb. The cleanup was excellent, too! Thank you, Paramount!"

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.

It’s best to opt for a lightweight roof, as a heavy roof adds a lot of weight and pressure to the support posts and hardware and destabilizes the structure. Vinyl is a good, lightweight option, as is a nice open trellis, louvered aluminum or vinyl slats, or fabric panels. Clear polycarbonate is another great option that offers seamless shelter and additional UV protection without completely obscuring the sunshine. You can also choose retractable coverings or an awning that you only use in wet weather or when you need additional shade.

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work. 

Pergolas may have a 50% to 80% return on investment, whether they’re standard, manual, motorized, or smart pergolas. Your pergola will add more value when you choose a structure made from durable, long-lasting materials and when the pergola is properly installed by a professional. Extra features like a motorized roof, smart louvers, and heaters or misters may give you a better ROI.

Wooden pergolas can last five and 12 years as long as you maintain your pergola. Make sure to clean, stain, and seal wood pergolas every two to three years to protect the wood from insect damage, rot, and decay. 

Vinyl or aluminum pergolas can last a lifetime. The only problems you may encounter with these pergola materials are weather-related—heavy rain storms or snowfalls. Check the stability of your pergola every season. You may need to add new supports or replace broken beams on an as-needed basis.
