Custom PergolasDesigned for Your Kent Garden
Every garden is different, which is why a bespoke timber pergola can be a better choice than a standard pre-made kit. The dimensions, layout and design can be tailored to your available space, helping the finished structure feel like a natural part of your garden rather than an added afterthought.
We can create custom wooden pergolas for patios, decking, outdoor dining areas, garden seating and walkways. Designs can be freestanding or positioned alongside your property, with the proportions carefully planned to complement both traditional and modern homes.
Whether you want to define an entertaining area, support climbing plants or introduce height and character to your garden, East Kent Repairs can help create a made-to-measure pergola suited to your requirements, style and budget. We provide bespoke pergola services throughout Kent, East Kent and Thanet.
Timber PergolaStyles, materials and Finishes
Your pergola can be designed to complement the style of your home, garden and existing outdoor features. Traditional designs can include substantial timber posts, decorative braces and exposed rafters, while simpler lines and clean proportions can create a more contemporary appearance.
The size and spacing of the posts, beams and rafters can be adapted to suit the location and intended use of the pergola. Optional features may include timber trellis, privacy screening and supports for climbing plants, helping you create a more enclosed or decorative outdoor area.
Suitable exterior-grade timber and fixings are selected with strength, durability and exposure to the Kent weather in mind. Depending on the chosen design, the finished wooden pergola can be treated, stained or painted to coordinate with nearby decking, fencing, gates and other garden joinery. We can discuss the available options and recommend a practical finish for your project.

FAQ
How much does a bespoke timber pergola cost?
The cost depends on its dimensions, design, timber requirements, finish, access and ground conditions. Send photographs and approximate measurements to receive an initial estimate based on your project.
Do you build made-to-measure pergolas?
Yes. Each timber pergola is designed around the available garden space, intended use and preferred appearance rather than being restricted to standard kit sizes.
Can you build a pergola over an existing patio?
A pergola can often be designed for an existing patio, subject to the surface, foundations and surrounding ground conditions being suitable for secure installation.
Can a pergola be installed over decking?
It may be possible, but the supporting structure beneath the decking must be assessed. Pergola posts need suitable support and should not rely solely on decking boards.
Do you build freestanding pergolas?
Yes. Freestanding timber pergolas can be positioned over seating areas, patios, pathways or other suitable locations without being attached to the property.
Can a timber pergola be positioned next to the house?
A pergola can be designed beside a property, subject to the wall construction, available space, drainage and proposed fixing method. These details should be assessed before installation.
What type of timber is used for outdoor pergolas?
Exterior-grade timber suitable for outdoor construction should be used. The best option will depend on the design, required finish, budget and level of ongoing maintenance.
Can a pergola include trellis or privacy screening?
Trellis panels, decorative screening and supports for climbing plants can be incorporated where appropriate. These additions can provide greater privacy and help the pergola blend into the garden.
How should a timber pergola be maintained?
Regular inspection and a suitable exterior treatment help protect timber from moisture and weather exposure. Maintenance requirements will depend on the timber and finish selected.
Do I need planning permission for a garden pergola?
Many domestic pergolas may not require planning permission, but restrictions can apply depending on the structure’s height, position and property type. Always check with your local planning authority before work begins.
Do you cover all of East Kent?
Yes. We provide boxing in services throughout Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Margate, Canterbury, Whitstable, Herne Bay, Sandwich, Dover, Folkestone and the surrounding East Kent areas.
