Pergola Construction and Repair – Uusimaa &South Karelia

Pergola construction ordered from us is effortless – we handle everything from design to implementation. Our service includes if needed pergola design based on client wishes, selection of suitable materials, as well as base work and foundations. We build the pergola either directly on top of an existing terrace or independently on the yard area, implementing durable foundations according to the facility.

We always use weather-resistant and sturdy solutions, such as pouring concrete bases or installing steel legs, so the pergola frame stays firmly in place even after years of use. We ensure that construction methods and tools are correct – this ensures the pergola a long service life and safety.

During construction phase we implement the pergola frame and roof structures according to the agreed model. We can build a pergola canopy attached to the house wall or freestanding, and shape it into a traditional romantic wooden pergola or modern straight-line pergola suitable for the environment.

Finishing work is an essential part of our service. Pergola wood parts can be treated with protective agents, painted or oiled to desired shade, so they withstand weather and suit your yard style. If desired we can also install roof panels, light canopies or side walls in the pergola to bring more protection from rain and wind.

Has your old pergola deteriorated or do you need repairs to a previously built pergola? From us you can also get pergola repair and restoration services. Often repairing an old pergola is a cost-effective alternative to building new, especially if the pergola's basic structure is still in good condition.

Typical repair measures include, for example, replacing rotted wood parts with new ones, strengthening and straightening pergola structures, and reinforcing fastenings and joints. We replace rotted or warped posts, beams and latticework with more durable materials if needed, and treat wood parts with protective agents so they withstand weather better in the future.

Pergola repair often also includes appearance improvement. We can sand, clean and repaint or re-oil wood structures, which brightens the entire pergola appearance and extends service life. With pergola restoration you can thus give your yard canopy many more years of additional life affordably compared to a completely new purchase.

Pergolas can be built from many different materials, and material choice affects both pergola appearance and maintenance needs. Our construction company implements pergolas from almost all materials – most common are wood, aluminum and various composite materials.

Wooden Pergola

A wooden pergola is a traditional choice and suits nature-close yard environments excellently. For construction we primarily use pressure-treated durable wood, which is treated to withstand weather variations and rot significantly better than untreated wood. Wooden pergola advantages are workability and tradition – wood can be used to build various models from classic arched pergola to modern rectangular model.

Aluminum Pergola

An aluminum pergola is a modern and durable solution that has grown in popularity both on home yards and business terraces. Aluminum as a material is light but strong – aluminum frame doesn't rust, withstands moisture and UV radiation well, and doesn't warp or crack. Aluminum pergola is nearly maintenance-free, as it doesn't require re-treatment like wood.

Composite Pergola

A composite pergola is an excellent alternative if you want to combine wood appearance and metal ease of maintenance. Composite materials – such as wood-plastic composite (WPC) or glass fiber reinforced – have become common on terraces and pergola structures. Their advantage is that they don't rot, rust or suffer from insect damage, and they require very little maintenance.

Pergolas suit many different environments and facilities. We've implemented pergola solutions for both private homes and businesses. A terrace pergola is a popular enhancement for both detached house and restaurant outdoor space – it creates a pleasant covered area where you can stay protected from sun or rain.

On a home yard a pergola can serve, for example, as a grill canopy, summer kitchen or dining area on the terrace. At a cottage a pergola offers a shady rest spot in the yard, and around it you can plant climbing plants or flowers, creating an authentic garden pergola atmosphere.

In public and business facilities pergolas are used increasingly. A pergola built for restaurant terrace enables customers to stay outdoors longer – in sunny weather the pergola canopy gives shade for diners, and when rain comes the covered pergola protects from getting wet, extending the terrace season.

Finland's variable weather conditions set their own challenges for pergolas, but we know how to prepare for them in design. We offer various weather-resistant solutions for pergolas, so they can be enjoyed as long as possible from spring to fall – and why not in winter too.

One popular option is a sliding-roof pergola: a sliding or rollable fabric canopy (awning) is installed in the pergola roof, which can be opened in sunny weather and closed in rain or when shade is needed. Such an openable pergola canopy protects from sun, rain and wind as needed and offers the user flexibility in outdoor space use.

Another solution for year-round use is a more fixed polycarbonate or light roof on top of the pergola. Clear light panel lets light through but keeps rain and debris outside, making the pergola practically a small yard canopy.

A pergola is much more than just a structure – it's an investment in yard or terrace comfort and usability. Here are a few key advantages a pergola offers:

• Shade and Protection: A pergola creates a pleasant shady area on a hot summer day and protects from direct sunlight. A covered pergola also provides rain protection, so outdoor stay doesn't immediately stop when weather changes.
• New Living Space: Under a pergola you can furnish an outdoor lounge, dining area or even a small garden room. It expands the home or cottage living area outward – you get an extra room in the yard, for example, for summer kitchen or relaxed lounging.
• Aesthetics and Value Increase: A stylish pergola is eye-catching and improves yard appearance. It structures the yard and terrace, creates clear spaces and brings architectural interest. A well-implemented pergola can also raise property value and desirability.
• Greenery and Vegetation: A pergola serves excellently as support for climbing plants (vines, wild grapes, hops, etc.). As climbing plants grow you naturally get a green canopy and walls.
• Privacy and Peace: A pergola limits space and brings privacy especially in dense residential areas. By adding visual screens or curtains to the pergola you can protect yourself from neighbors' views.
