Pergolas · Timing
Ask when a pergola install should happen
The useful question is which week is real. If the work is next season, stop the follow-ups and let them reopen it.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
What the calendar really depends on
Footings first, then the kit or the lumber. Attached to the house is a different flashing job than freestanding.
If they need longer
Pergola estimates sit with the HOA packet, or while someone decides if it should attach to the house. HOA style rules decide more pergolas than the lumber price. Do not attach a pergola to the house in a follow-up rewrite without a new price.

Hi Felicia, If you want the pergola install on the calendar, tell me which week is realistic and I will see if I can hold it. The estimate is $8,900. If this is a later-season project, say so and I will stop following up until you ask. Thanks, John Abebe Abebe Outdoor
