Benefits of Adding a Pergola

Adding a pergola is one way to enhance your deck’s look and functionality instantly. A pergola is a versatile outdoor structure that not only adds aesthetic appeal but also provides shade and sun protection to your property. Here are a few reasons why adding a pergola to your deck is a great idea.

Enhancing the aesthetics of your outdoor area

Adding a pergola to your deck can greatly enhance the aesthetics of your outdoor area. With its unique design and structure, a pergola adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any space. It creates a focal point and instantly elevates the overall look and feel of your deck.

Providing shade and Rain protection

Another key benefit of adding a pergola to your deck is the shade and protection, privacy and seclusion it provides. With a pergola, you can enjoy outdoor space even on hot sunny days or during light rain showers. The open lattice design of a pergola allows for filtered sunlight, providing a comfortable and shaded area to relax and entertain.

Increased Property Value

Adding a pergola to your deck enhances the aesthetics and functionality of your outdoor space and can also increase the value of your property. A well-designed and professionally built pergola adds curb appeal to your home and makes it more attractive to potential buyers. It is a desirable feature that sets your property apart from others in the market.

Choosing the Right Pergola Design

When it comes to choosing the right pergola design for your deck, Premier Deck has a variety of options to suit your style and needs. Here are a few popular pergola designs that can transform your outdoor space:

Traditional Pergola: This classic design features a rectangular shape with evenly spaced beams and an open lattice roof. It adds a timeless and elegant look to your deck.
Modern Pergola: A modern pergola may be the perfect choice if you prefer a more contemporary and sleek design. It creates a sophisticated and stylish outdoor space with clean lines and minimalist features.
Rustic Pergola: For a cozy and charming feel, a rustic pergola is a great option. It typically includes natural materials like rough-hewn wood or stone, adding a warm and inviting atmosphere to your deck.
Attached Pergola: Attached pergolas connect directly to your home, extending your living space seamlessly. It provides additional shade and creates a smooth transition between indoors and outdoors.

Maintaining and Caring for Your Pergola

After your pergolas are built, it’s important to properly maintain and care for them to ensure their longevity and beauty. Premier Deck provides the following tips for maintaining your pergolas:

Regular Cleaning: Regularly clean your pergolas to remove dirt, debris, and stains. Use a mild soap, water, and a soft brush to scrub away any grime. Rinse thoroughly with water to remove any soap residue.

Inspect for Damage: Regularly inspect your pergolas for any signs of damage, such as loose or broken boards, beams, or posts. Address any issues immediately to prevent further damage.
Stain or Seal: Depending on the material of your pergola, consider staining or sealing it to protect it from the elements. This will help prevent rot, warping, and fading. You can consult Premier Deck for the best staining or sealing options for your pergola.
Trim Plants and Vines: If you have plants or vines growing on your pergola, make sure to regularly trim them to prevent overgrowth and potential damage to the structure.
Remove Snow: In snowy regions, it’s important to remove snow from your pergola to prevent the weight from causing damage. Use a broom or soft brush to remove snow from the roof and beams gently.

By following these maintenance tips, you can ensure that your pergolas remain in excellent condition for years.

The Premier Deck team far exceeded our expectations from start to finish. During the initial consult, Steve was helpful in suggesting options based on our wants/needs and his communiction throughout the process was outstanding. Noah and Mike worked through a week of oppressively hot and humid weather to complete our deck and it looks amazing! At the end of each day, the area was clean and safe for our dog to be in the work area. We absolutely love the finished outcome. We highly recommend Premier Deck--you will not find a better company to work with!

I rarely write reviews but felt Premier Deck's services warranted it. Steve helped with some design details that made the deck much more attractive without sacrificing good construction guidelines. I am very happy with the end product and was impressed by the workmanship and attention to detail that Jon displayed. The team showed up on time every day, worked hard all day, and left the area clean and tidy at the end of the day. I would highly recommend this business.

After set up an appointment over the phone. Owner Steve Kirk stopped by our house next day. He showed us few realistic options, materials, color and sent us the proposal within few days. Overall experience it's easy and simple for us. They work around the clock through the middle of winter. Steve and his team started our project in freezing cold weather every day (no matter snow day or rainy day) from 6am with daily update text and photos via the portal. His daughter April also kept us updated and response our questions in a timely manner. The final product turned out exactly what we are looking for and the new deck looks stunning. We are very happy with the result and new deck upgrade definitely increase our property value. Give him a call asap because his schedule is fully booked few months ahead. Thank you Premier Deck. Highly recommended.

I cannot begin to list all of the amazing qualities of the Premier Deck team. From Steve and April all the way down to John and Joey, the team is solid and supremely skilled. We always felt that there was great communication between the team and ourselves. The team was on time, worked through rainy cold weather, and always made us feel welcomed when asking obvious questions. Also, the quality of our deck is incredible and feels as if it will last a few lifetimes. I would recommend this company to everyone within their radius. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Premier Deck!

The Premier Deck Team, led by Steve Kirk, replaced my Deck at my place on Hampton Beach in December of 2022. They did a fantastic job, on time, on budget, no issues, and I am getting so many compliments....definitely will use Steve and his crew to replace my deck at my lake house in the next year or so.

We used Premier Deck to build a deck around our above ground pool. From the beginning, working with Steve was a pleasure. He is helpful, knowledgeable and quick to respond. He designed a gorgeous deck with two levels and a bar.Dennis was the head contractor on our project and he impressed us from day one. He and his crew worked quickly but with great attention to detail. A few amendments were made to our design along the way, and he always checked in with us to make sure we were getting a final product that we loved.Our deck is gorgeous and we are so happy we used Premier Deck to build it!

In our opinion, it is almost impossible these days to find a business in this industry that you can say out delivered on every aspect of a project, but in this case Steve and Premier Decks did just that. We got several quotes, and we found Steve's pricing very competitive, especially in light of the excellent quality and service we received. Due to our location directly on the ocean, our deck project had a significant amount of permitting requirements and engineering obstacles and even before we had signed on with Steve, he was jumping in to help problem solve and offer ideas to help us reach our goals. It was clear from the start how professional and experienced Steve was, and how seriously he takes his work. We had a rough idea of the deck design we wanted, but Steve’s excellent sense of aesthetic and attention to detail made a huge difference in how the end result turned out. He did a particularly beautiful job on our outdoor shower, making sure every detail was thought through and the finished product was exactly what we had hoped for, but would have had no idea how to bring to fruition on our own. In addition, Steve’s crew was incredibly hard working, laboring tirelessly through freezing temps and snow in December and January to deliver the project on time. They were courteous and tidy, and clearly knew the ins and outs of building a deck and multiple stairways as well. Even after the project was complete, Steve followed up multiple times with us to be sure we were satisfied and to answer questions about how to care for the decking (Azek). We are so thankful to Steve and his crew at Premier Decks for such a beautiful and well-built deck!

I cannot say enough good things about Steve, his team, or the quality decks they build. First of all Steve was pleasant, professional, and truely a great businessman. I had met with a few other contractors to get quotes and Steve was the only one to come with samples of the composite decking and a packet of information. He worked with our budget to get us to the deck we desired. He kept us informed of the entire process, every step of the way. His team was friendly and also professional, and they really built a quality deck in a truely impressive time frame. My deck was built in under a week, from start to finish. The quality of the work is unmatched. Can't recommend him enough. Don't bother with other people, he's your guy!
