Pergola - Hessle - Hull

This week Bluebell Joinery Services built a bespoke covered pergola in Hessle.

The customer had recently had their garden re-modelled with a new patio and artificial grass and was looking to have a covered gazebo / pergola built over patio.

Patio before build.

We had to position posts carefully within brick edging to new patio so as not to damage new tiles.

There was 6 support posts in total. these where 100x100 timber posts.

With the patio been an unusual quadrilateral shape the roof was a complicated hip design. Making all rafters different lengths.

Rafters where all 150x50 treated timber.

Angled hip design roof. All rafters different.

150x50 rafters.

Roof was constructed with 150x19 treated timber boards and then good quality felt was laid.

A gutter was fitted to rear of pergola and a hidden waste pipe brought around the side of pergola to drain into a water butt.

Finished pergola with water butt shown.
Customer provided leaf design screening which we incorporated into design.

Slatted screening was fitted to 3 internal sides of pergola. these where 50x25 round cornered treated timber.

a black membrane was fitted behind screening so you cannot see fence behind.

a total of 700 screws! where used in the construction.
