Central Jersey Pergolas

Are you looking for a beautiful addition to your back yard landscape design? Maybe an outdoor structure? Backyard enthusiasts are always searching for the next piece of landscape that takes their property to the next level of beauty, visual appeal, and opportunity for enjoyment. Of course, there is good reason for this, as tasteful additions help create a unique personality for your home in addition to extending your family’s warmth and hospitality. If you are considering the next addition to your landscape, consider installing a central jersey pergola.

Central Jersey Pergolas Add to Your Functional Living Space

If you have already installed a deck or patio, you likely added it to extend your living space beyond the walls of your home. If you have found that you love your outdoor living area but that it’s not quite so useful on a summer afternoon when the sun is beating down or if you wish you had protection from bad weather, a pergola may be for you. A pergola extends your living space and increases the amount of time you can spend outside. Designed and oriented correctly on your lot, a pergola can cast enough light shade to make even a warm afternoon enjoyable or if you still need additional protection, you can install a retractable shade cover for more shade. Some shade covers will even protect you from a light rain, perfect for those unpredictable summer storms.

Central Jersey Pergolas | Design Options are Endless!

Greenview Designs can provide you design a pergola from scratch and can custom build it right on your property. The options available to you are virtually endless! Let’s take a look at some of the materials available and the advantages and disadvantages of each:

Pressure-treated wood: A pressure-treated wood pergola is often your least expensive option. They’ll have a reasonable lifespan but pressure-treated lumber can warp, crack, and check over time. This type of pergola generally looks best if painted or stained.

Cedar wood: Cedar (typically Western Red Cedar) is a popular choice for pergolas. It’s naturally insect resistant and looks beautiful right from the sawmill. You can leave it untreated to turn a soft silver gray, or stain and seal it to hold its color. A cedar pergola is more expensive than a pressure-treated pergola, but you’ll typically get a longer serviceable lifespan from cedar.

Vinyl: If you’re looking for a pergola that requires very little maintenance, vinyl is certainly worth consideration. You cannot easily paint a vinyl pergola, however, so your color choices are limited.

Fiberglass: Fiberglass pergolas are generally the most expensive way to go, but they come with significant benefits. Because fiberglass is so strong, you can span much longer distances without posts, (in some cases, about 20 feet) giving you a cleaner look). Fiberglass can be painted any color you want, and the paint will hold up better than on wood. Finally, fiberglass pergolas are perfect for adding to either a deck or existing patio. Due to their light weight, fiberglass pergolas don’t require the same deep footers as other materials dictate.

Dave and his team did a great job replacing our paver patio and outdoor lighting system. They also built a lovely small wall to contain a bed along the sidewalk, which replaced old railroad ties. They showed up when expected and finished the job in the estimated time frame. We highly recommend them for hardscape and lighting work. Dave was super responsive any time we had a question, and he was onsite to provide direction when necessary. His crew were fabulous and left the property in an orderly way at the end of each work day, and spotless at the end of the job.

I had a new walkway done by another contractor that left me with both drainage and stone stability problems. Their work actually created more problems. I then had five contractors give me recommendations how to fix the problems. Dave at Greenview took his time in assessing all the factors- and came up with the most comprehensive plan that really made the most sense- to avoid any future drainage problem. He offered me options and recommendations as to the materials and design. I never felt pressured. He had the personal experience and expertise to see beyond the obvious-- and he had the proper machinery and talented workman to do it. They arrived and started when they said they would, and put in long days- and every evening the place was left neat. Dave was there every day to check on the progress and the details. The finished result is extremely functional and it exceeded my expectations in esthetics. Dave even came by several days after the project was complete to see if I was totally satisfied. I would definitely use them again for any other work. Thank you Dave!

We needed to replace our front walk after it was torn up for some emergency plumbing work. We also decided that it would be worthwhile to replace some overgrown shrubbery at the same time so we looked into two local contractors to do the work. Dave Busch of Greenview Designs impressed us by coming to our house almost immediately, listening to our ideas, answering our questions and making his own suggestions. He gave us a reasonable proposal which we accepted and he told us when to expect the job to be done. He and his crew came at the time promised, they worked efficiently and did a beautiful job. They also did some extra work that we agreed on at a very reasonable added cost. When the work was done the crew cleaned up everything. The new walk and shrubbery look beautiful. Our neighbors have expressed admiration and our eight-year-old granddaughter said, “It’s much more welcoming.” Thank you, Dave.

My wife and I decided on an in ground cement pool. After realizing that the pool companies patio job was going to be so small, and we had a difficult pitch, due to the fact, we live on a mountain, we called Dave from Greenview. We were referred to him by a friend, and we were a little skeptical about spending so much money on our pool project. He paid attention to details, such as drainage and practicality.Shortly after we went through the designing phase, we were delighted to see how quickly things went together. He went above and beyond! Highly recommended! Chris and Abbey
