A pergola turns a patio or deck in Llantwit Major into somewhere with shape, shade and a bit of an occasion — made to measure, built solid, and tied into the rest of the garden so it looks like it belongs.
We build timber and composite pergolas and garden structures to measure across Llantwit Major — over a deck, a patio or a seating area. Posts set properly, timbers squared and bolted, and finished so it is ready for climbers, lights or a sail shade.
The frame is everything: a pergola that is just screwed together racks and sags within a couple of summers. Ours sit on posts dug and concreted in like a fence, with the joints cut and bolted to take the weight — built for Llantwit Major weather, not flat-pack.
Pergolas pair naturally with a decking or composite job, so a lot of people in Llantwit Major add one while we are already on site. Mention it on the free site visit and we will work it into the same fixed quote.
As a rough UK guide, a made-to-measure timber pergola runs from around £1,200 for a compact 3×3m up to £3,000–£6,000 or more for a larger bespoke structure, supplied and fitted; the UK average sits around £2,500. Ben builds bespoke and solid — posts concreted in, joints cut and bolted — so expect the mid-to-upper end rather than a flat-pack kit. Exact price free on a site visit.
Usually no. A pergola is normally permitted development in Wales as long as it is not forward of the principal elevation of the house, is single-storey, and stays under 3 metres high (2.5 metres if it is within 2 metres of a boundary). Listed buildings and conservation areas have stricter rules.
