Pergola

[Nova]

I know it sounds a lot difficult if you attempt to make pergola in backyard or even for the clients. I think if you have enough time and space this can become a good project. I am however kind of skeptical on the time and money side. But apart from that I think this can be a good summer project.

What do you think is it worth making one if you have space and time?

If you can get a good deal on the wood then a pergola would be a really nice addition to a yard!

How does a Pergola differ from a Gazebo?
I wasn't sure so searched & found the Difference
"The main difference between a pergola and a gazebo is the function of the roof. A gazebo and a pavilion provide full coverage from the sun, while a pergola allows for sunlight to shine through its slatted roof. Typically, a pergola provides partial shelter and shade over a garden, pathway, or patio."

We had a Gazebo here when we moved but it was old steel. I planted climbing vines but it was just a pain so we removed it & planted grass instead.

I have a friend who wanted a pergola on his back patio, but I could never figure out why he wanted that since it still allowed for the sun to beat down on them? I guess it's mainly for looks?
