Our family couldn't be happier with our new pavilion...its an investment that has given us additional living area for a space previously rarely used, increased the value of our home, brings us closer to the outdoors, and is enjoyed daily...
we now find ourselves relaxing on our patio for hours, both day and night.
Unlike the plethora of out-of-the-box" pavilions on the market, this offered a high-quality, solid cedar, strong built-to-last design, combined with wide customization to exactly address your needs,"
typically only found through paying a substantial amount of money for a team of carpenters to come and build it for you.Delivery was amazing.
They have their own trucks with specialized articulating trailers that can place the kit precisely where and how you need it.Assembly was straight forward. You must have at least two people, three to four is ideal.
As mentioned, this thing is built to last...its solid and its heavy. Take your time, read and re-read the manual, and plan to use two full days.
We got the primary structure up the first day, and the roof on and shingled by the end of the second day.Consider adding at least one power package, and if you live in an area that sometimes has strong winds, add the upgraded post brackets...
ours stands firm as a rock in winds.Our only recommendation (and its a small one) for Pergola Kits USA would be to provide the option to include roofing nails with the kit.
The specific short size needed for shingles on the cedar roof was incredibly difficult to find. Overall, we couldn't be happier. They offer well-designed, high quality, enduring products at half the price of having carpenters build one for you.
