Husband Deluxe embarked on removing our pergola, painting it and it putting it back together on our deck.
Ended up being a huge job as the two walls it is attaching to don't have eves or gutters. Involved adding flushing, silicone and rubber seals. The previous owner used wood screws in a metal pergola, so it meant new screws and the correct spacers!

We are really thrilled with the outcome. The deck is now a space we can use, as before it faced full west and south. Very hot and exposed in summer. It is providing heaps of shade to our bedroom making it more comfortable.
Our next big project will be removing an existing wooden deck and getting a new deck and pergola built off the kitchen/family room area.

Way to go! How did the second pergola go? It would be nice if you use a similar color and design like this on the next one. It would really be interesting. :) How about over the garage? I think you’d be able to come up with a really unique look for your house through pergolas. Intrinsically -->Cathy
