Peace of Mind Renovations
Never wonder what’s going on. Clear updates, no surprises, no unexpected costs — straightforward renovation you can feel good about.
What Makes Pergolas Unique?
Pergolas offer a more open design compared to gazebos, adding shade and aesthetic appeal without enclosing the space. These elegant structures are perfect for:
- • Enhancing decks, walkways, and gardens
- • Working with plants to create visual interest
- • Starting with flexibility, as they can be adapted into gazebo-style structures later
Why Choose a Gazebo for Your Backyard?
A gazebo is the perfect way to enjoy your outdoor space while staying protected from the elements. These versatile structures provide shade, privacy, and comfort. Key features include:
- • Acts as a visual and sound barrier in crowded areas
- • Options for screening to keep bugs out
- • Customizable designs from simple rectangles to intricate dodecagons

What’s the difference between a pergola and a gazebo?
Instead of being fully covered and closed in with a finished roof, pergolas tend to be built with more vertical posts and cross beams, remaining more open. Because of this, pergolas can add aesthetics and shade to decks, walkways, and gardens without enclosing them. Pergolas can be built for privacy purposes, or designed with your garden in mind, allowing you to work with surrounding plants to increase visual appeal. It is also possible to start with a pergola and later adapt to more of a gazebo style structure, so pergolas are a great option if you’re not 100% sure what you want for your backyard.
At the end of the day, both gazebos and pergolas are a great, cost effective way to increase the aesthetics and value of your Okanagan backyard. There is so much variety of design, purpose and layout for these types of projects that we find it is best to work closely with you and create a plan that satisfies your personal needs and desires. So instead of buying an off-the shelf kit, work with our team to help you design a custom, affordable gazebo or pergola that will not only remain structurally sound for years to come, but enhance your personal backyard experience!
