Pergola Installation in Columbus

What a Pergola Brings to Your Backyard

Have you ever looked at your patio and thought, I want to spend more time out here, but it gets too hot or too plain? A custom pergola changes that. A pergola adds shade, structure, and style to your outdoor areas. It gives you a place for dinner with family, lazy weekend mornings with coffee, or evenings with friends under string lights.

We install pergolas that match your taste and property layout. You can choose from durable materials like:

• Cedar or Redwood for warmth and natural beauty
• Pressure‑treated wood for strong, long‑lasting performance
• Vinyl or composite for low maintenance
• Metal or aluminum for a modern look

Pergolas can be freestanding or attached to your deck or patio, and we tailor every project to fit your space.

Here’s what we handle:

• Custom design and layout planning
• Material selection and guidance
• Precision installation
• Staining, painting, or sealing
• Repair & maintenance

Every pergola we build is constructed to stand up to Central Ohio’s weather, from hot sunny summers to snowy winters.

Fence Installation in Columbus

Strong, Stylish Fences for Every Yard

A fence isn’t just a boundary. It defines your space, gives privacy, and boosts your home’s value. We install wood, vinyl, composite, and metal fences designed to last.

Our Fence Services Include:

• Privacy and picket fences
• Security and property boundary fences
• Custom gates and access panels
• Fence repair and replacement
• Coating, staining, sealing

We know the city rules in Columbus. For example, fences 6 feet tall or less usually don’t need a city building permit, but zoning rules still apply, especially in front yards and historic districts. We help you follow local regulations so your fence project goes smoothly.

We also handle exact placement of posts and panels so the fence sits where it should relative to property lines, neighbors, and landscaping.

What Sets Our Service Apart

1. Real Local Know‑How

Columbus has neighborhoods with different styles and rules. Historic zones like German Village or downtown districts may have design preferences or guidelines. We work with those considerations in mind so your pergola or fence fits and lasts.

2. Quality Materials & Craftsmanship

A great fence or pergola isn’t just about how it looks now. It’s about how it handles wind, rain, snow, and sun over time. That’s why we recommend materials like cedar, pressure‑treated wood, composite, and vinyl if you want low‑maintenance options. We always talk through the pros and cons so you can make the best decision.

3. Expert Installation

Digging posts, leveling boards, and anchoring beams is tricky work. We use the right tools — like post hole diggers, levels, power drills, and concrete mixers — and we know how to use them well so your structure is strong and weather‑resistant.

4. Honest Communication

We’ll walk you through what to expect, from timelines to pricing to city rules. Most residential fence installations finish in 1–3 days, and pergola projects vary depending on size and design.

Local Questions We Hear Often

FAQ #1: Do I need a permit for a pergola or fence in Columbus?

For fences 6 feet or less, you usually don’t need a city building permit, but zoning rules still matter. Fences taller than 6 feet might need a permit. Historic districts or HOAs may have their own rules, and a good installer should help you follow them.

Pergolas sometimes need a permit too, especially if they’re attached to your home. We can help check requirements.

FAQ #2: How long will my pergola take to install?

Most custom pergolas take a few days to a week from site prep to finishing touches, depending on design and size.

FAQ #3: What materials should I pick?

It depends on your priorities:

• Cedar & Redwood: beautiful, natural, holds stain well
• Pressure‑treated wood: budget‑friendly and durable
• Vinyl/Composite: low maintenance and weather‑resistant
• Aluminum/Metal: sleek look with long life

We’ll help you choose what makes sense for your yard, style, and budget.

FAQ #4: How much does fence installation cost in Columbus?

Costs vary by material and size. A typical backyard fence can range from around $10 to $30 per linear foot, though custom or specialty projects might be higher.

FAQ #5: Can you repair my old fence or pergola?

Yes. We offer repair services when weather, age, or accidents take a toll. Fixing broken boards, replacing posts, and tightening loose fasteners are common repairs we handle.

FAQ #6: What’s the difference between pergolas and gazebos?

A pergola has an open top with beams for shade and style, while a gazebo has a full roof. Pergolas are great if you want partial shade and a breezy feel.

FAQ #7: How do I maintain my pergola or fence?

Routine checks, cleaning, and re‑staining or sealing every few years help extend life. We also offer staining and sealing services to protect your structures.
