Pergola Location: Not just for backyards!

Most people think you have to place a pergola in the backyard only.  No true anymore.  As you see in the photos, pergolas can bring life onto the front of your home and add some dimension, especially if you don't have much of an overhang or no front porch.   Caution -  if you don't plan to purchase a retractible canopy for shade underneath the pergola, and plan to grow some vines, be careful which vine you do grow.   Even though Wisteria is my favorite it will create havoc on your pergola and awning/soffits of your home.  Let your builder know which vines you're thinking about so they can build your pergola out of a material that can withstand.
