Our Timber Frame Pergolas

A pergola is an ancient outdoor architectural style that has survived the centuries. And it hasn’t lost its allure. Our custom pergolas are built to support your outdoor hobbies, whether that means cultivating your climbing rose bushes, reading on your swing, or sharing a meal with old friends.

Brought to You by Amish Pergola Builders

The timber frame component of our custom pergolas adds a dimension of grandeur that you miss with vinyl or plastic pergolas. Because of their heavy weight and sturdy mortise-and-tenon construction, these timber frame pergolas will stay rooted for years to come.
The timber posts and beams of an outdoor pergola make it ideal for hanging outdoor lights so you can enjoy your outdoor space any hour of the night or day.

Pergola Timber Frame FAQs

Q. Can my pergola or pavilion fit over my existing patio or must I get a new one?

A.     Our pergolas and pavilions are completely customized so they can fit over new or existing patios.

A.    A pavilion has a roof while a pergola does not, making a pavilion a more versatile choice for climbing plants.

A.    Because of our pre-cutting process, we may only be on your property for one or two days. Depending on the intricacy of the customization, it will take longer, but construction will rarely take longer than 4 days.

A.      Most counties require a building permit and lot improvement permit for any structure larger than 200 square feet. However, permitting varies from county to county. Brookside recommends checking with your local county for planning and zoning assistance.
