Frequently Asked Questions
What types of wood are used in garden pergolas?
Our wood pergolas are typically constructed from pressure-treated softwood or FSC-certified hardwood such as teak or Roble. Pressure-treated timber is resistant to rot and insect damage, making it well-suited to the damp UK climate.
How long do wood pergolas last in the UK?
With proper maintenance, a quality wood pergola can last 15 to 25 years or more. Annual treatment with a wood preservative, stain, or oil will significantly extend the life of the timber and maintain its appearance through the British weather.
Do wood pergolas need planning permission in the UK?
In most cases, garden pergolas fall under permitted development rights and do not require planning permission, provided they meet size and height restrictions. We recommend checking with your local planning authority if you are unsure, particularly for larger structures.
Can I paint or stain my wood pergola?
Yes — wood pergolas can be painted, stained, or oiled to match your garden aesthetic. We recommend using an exterior-grade wood treatment product and reapplying annually or as needed to maintain protection against moisture and UV damage.
Do you offer free delivery on wood pergolas?
Yes, we offer free UK mainland delivery on all wood pergolas. Due to their size and weight, pergolas are delivered via specialist pallet courier. Delivery timescales and access requirements are shown on each product page.
