Gazebo and Pergola Building FAQs
Do I need planning permission for a pergola or gazebo in Swansea?
Usually no planning permission is required if they meet height limits (under 2.5m for flat roofs or 4m for pitched) and are located in the rear garden.
In conservation areas, listed buildings, or coastal zones, additional restrictions may apply.
We assess your property during the free consultation and advise whether you need to consult Swansea Council.

How long does it take to build a pergola or gazebo?
Standard pergolas and gazebos take about one to two days to install once the base is ready.
Larger or more detailed structures can take longer. We confirm the timescale after a site visit so you know exactly what to expect.

What’s the best wood for a pergola or gazebo near the coast?
Durable, treated timbers like cedar and other naturally rot‑resistant woods perform best in coastal, damp conditions.
We recommend waterproof finishes. These stand up to Swansea’s salty air and rain so your structure stays solid and looks good for years.
Can you attach a pergola to my house, or does it have to be freestanding?
Both options are possible: we build attached pergolas over patios and freestanding pergolas or gazebos elsewhere in the garden.
We’ll suggest the right style based on how you want to use the space and how your garden and house are laid out.
Will a pergola or gazebo give enough shade and weather protection?
A pergola gives partial shade and is great with climbing plants or light roofing; a gazebo offers more solid shelter from sun and rain.
We look at sun direction and wind on your plot, then design the roof and spacing so you get the level of shade and cover you want.
Do you handle the foundations and drainage?
Yes, we build suitable foundations and deal with drainage as part of the job.
We choose the right type of base for your soil and slope so the posts stay stable and water doesn’t pool around the structure.
How much maintenance will my pergola or gazebo need?
Timber structures usually need a quick check and fresh protective treatment every few years.
We’ll recommend coatings and simple maintenance steps that work well in Swansea’s coastal climate so upkeep stays manageable.
