Understanding the cost of a pergola or gazebo
The total cost of a pergola or gazebo project depends on several key factors:
-
- Structure size and design.
- The type of patio or base it’s built on.
- Site access and prep work.
- Add-ons like sitting walls, lighting, or landscaping.
Most of our clients choose projects in the $5,000 to $15,000 range. This includes both the structure and the hardscape foundation beneath it, with options to upgrade based on your needs.
We specialize in mid- to high-end backyard projects for homeowners with limited space or poor machine access, where precision, hand-built craftsmanship, and efficiency matter most.

-
- Site grading and base preparation.
