The benefits of timber pergolas

When picking a pergola a timber pergola can be an ideal choice to create and earthy natural look that can bled in seamlessly into your garden.

Timber pergolas are just as durable and just  as versatile as steel pergolas.

Timber pergolas are more environmentally friendly and they can blend in more to the back yard.

In addition they are a seemless ad on to the home that allows for an outside entertaining area. 

If built in conjunction with a open or sliding door you can add meters onto your home. 

This can then be seen as a investment into the future growth of your property when looking to sell.

Timber Pergolas

For an Adelaide pergola, timber is frequently the typical material used. The wood’s natural finish blends well with any landscape and suits contemporary and traditional-style Adelaide homes.

In addition, we can treat the wood to give it a more natural, rustic appearance or paint it to match your house’s colour scheme.

Benefits of Building a Timber Pergola

Timber is often used in the construction of pergolas. The material gives homes a natural, warm look that goes well with traditional and modern designs. But there is much more to timber than it looks.

  • Timber is lightweight and strong, with many hardwood species exceeding the strength to weight ratio by up to 20 per cent.
  • Renewable, recyclable and natural material
  • Timber is one of the most versatile materials used within the construction industry. This material can be bent into its required shape, connected to another material and much more.

Many species of wood are capable of withstanding Australia’s harsh weather conditions.

What is a pergola?

Pergolas can be either freestanding or attached to the home, sheltered or open. The term originated as an Italian word, meaning an outdoor structure covered in plants.

Although many pergolas are still open structures with trellises for climbing plants, covered roofs are becoming increasingly popular, so pergolas can be used throughout the year.

Do you need planning permission for a timber pergola?

If you plan to build a verandah in Australia, check with your local council first. Some councils may require planning permission for a pergola, and others won’t.

The great thing about working with Superb Pergolas N Deck is that we understand local council regulations and are happy to investigate the need for permits on your behalf.

If your council requires planning permission for timber pergolas, there are certain things they will look at when considering whether or not it can be built in your area. These can include:

  • The proximity of the proposed structure to neighbouring properties
  • The verandah’s height from the ground level
  • How is access provided to the structure
  • The size of the pergola

This is not a complete list, but it shows some things to consider when planning a verandah in Adelaide. But don’t worry; we’ll always ensure your new outdoor space meets local guidelines.

Do I need planning permission to build a pergola?

When you want to put up a pergola on your Adelaide property, it can be hard to determine if you need a building permit for the new structure. We’re here to help you through the entire process.

In South Australia, building regulations stipulate that pergolas with a height of more than 2.5 metres require a building permit.

It’s also important to note that you should engage a registered builder in an appropriate category or class to complete the work. However, you can select to be an owner-builder, but you may need to apply for an owner-builder’s licence.

Our team can help you check in with your local council to determine the exact requirements for your Adelaide area to ensure the approval process is as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
