Types of Pergolas & Gazebos
When choosing a pergola as a backyard add-on, your pergola installer can help you understand the different types to make an appropriate selection. They are as follows:
- Steel Pergolas. Since steel is a durable material that can withstand harsh climatic conditions, a steel pergola can last long.
- Alumawood Pergolas. They are made of Alumawood and have the best sides of wood and aluminum. Although they look like wood, they are as durable as aluminum with several colors and styles to choose from.
- Open Top or closed Top Pergolas. Pergolas with an open-roof design allow sufficient sunlight penetration and enough space for air circulation.

Customization
Every property is different, and so are your goals. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions.

This approach helps reduce the need for repairs and keeps your pergola or landscape structure looking great for years to come.
FAQs About Pergolas & Shade Structures
What is a Pergola?
A pergola is a slatted outdoor structure, available with open or solid roofing, perfect for creating shaded retreats from Arizona’s sun. It provides a relaxing gathering space, enhances outdoor aesthetics, and supports climbing plants to add charm to your landscape.
Is a pergola a veranda?
No, a pergola is not a veranda. A pergola is a freestanding or attached outdoor structure with an open roof made of beams or slats, while a veranda is a roofed, open-air porch that’s usually attached to the front or side of a house.
What construction type is a shade structure?
A shade structure is typically considered a non-building structure or auxiliary structure. It’s often built using wood, steel, or aluminum, and is classified as Type V or Type II construction depending on materials and fire resistance.
Is a pergola an extension?
A pergola can be considered an extension if it’s attached to a building and designed to enhance outdoor living space, but it doesn’t count as a full structural extension like a room addition since it usually lacks walls and a solid roof.
Is a pergola a gazebo?
No, a pergola is not a gazebo. A gazebo is a freestanding, often round or octagonal structure with a solid roof and sometimes enclosed sides. A pergola has an open roof and is more linear in design, offering partial shade rather than full coverage.
What are the two types of structures in construction?
The two main types are load-bearing structures and framed structures. Load-bearing structures rely on walls to support weight, while framed structures use a skeleton of beams and columns.
How Much Do Pergolas Cost?
It is best to consult with your installer about the exact cost of your chosen pergola, as various factors determine the final cost of pergola installation, such as the material, style, and size.
