Pergolas by Carolina Deck Pros

Elevate your outdoor living experience with a custom pergola designed and built by Carolina Deck Pros. Whether you want to add architectural elegance to your backyard or create a shaded retreat for relaxation, our expert team has the knowledge and craftsmanship to bring your vision to life. As one of the leading pergola builders in Charlotte, NC, we serve homeowners in Ballantyne, Waxhaw, Fort Mill, and the greater Charlotte area with top-quality materials and personalized designs.

Choosing the right materials for your pergola is an essential part of the design process. At Carolina Deck Pros, we offer two primary material options that cater to different aesthetic preferences and maintenance needs:

1. Cedar
   For a more premium look, cedar is a popular choice. Cedar naturally resists decay, insects, and moisture, offering both beauty and longevity. Its rich, natural color and grain patterns make it a standout option for those looking for a low-maintenance yet aesthetically pleasing pergola.
2. Pressure-treated pine is one of the most affordable and durable materials for pergolas. It is treated to resist rot, insects, and moisture, making it ideal for Charlotte’s humid climate. Pine can be stained or painted to match your home’s exterior, offering flexibility in design.

 At Carolina Deck Pros, we ensure every pergola is built to last, using high-quality materials and expert construction techniques:

1. Pergola Structure
   The key to a sturdy pergola is its foundation and framing. We use durable, weather-resistant materials like pressure-treated wood or cedar for the posts and beams. Our team ensures all structures are securely anchored and designed to withstand Charlotte’s weather conditions, from heavy rains to sun exposure.
2. Roof and Shade Options
   One of the main benefits of a pergola is the customizable roofing options. We offer several shade solutions to suit your needs:
   
   • Open Roof Slats: For partial shade, we design pergolas with widely spaced roof slats, allowing sunlight to filter through while still providing a level of protection from direct sunlight.

• Tin Roof: We can add a low-slope,  corrugated metal roof on the pergola, to provide shade and rain protection for you and your guests.

• Privacy Walls/Screens: For clients looking for more shade and privacy, privacy screens are often a great solution.  We work with you to select a design that suits your needs, tastes, and budget.

• Custom Design Features
  Our pergolas can be fully customized with additional features such as lighting, ceiling fans, and even climbing plants like ivy or wisteria to enhance the ambiance of your outdoor space.

Owning a pergola offers numerous advantages for homeowners in Charlotte and the surrounding areas:

1. Extended Outdoor Living Space
   A pergola creates a defined outdoor living area that extends the usability of your yard. Whether you’re entertaining guests, hosting family dinners, or relaxing with a book, a pergola provides a comfortable, shaded space for outdoor activities.
2. Increase in Home Value
   Installing a pergola is an investment in your property. Homeowners in neighborhoods like Myers Park, SouthPark, and Huntersville can expect an increase in home value, as pergolas enhance curb appeal and add functionality to outdoor spaces.
3. Versatility and Customization
   With a wide range of customization options, pergolas can be designed to match the architectural style of your home. From minimalist modern designs to more traditional, rustic structures, a pergola can be tailored to suit your taste.
4. Year-Round Enjoyment
   Pergolas offer versatility in all seasons. In spring and summer, they provide much-needed shade and shelter from the sun. In fall, adding string lights or a patio heater can transform your pergola into a cozy retreat.
