It’s no wonder why so many homeowners are looking to add an outdoor structure to their homes. Pergolas and gazebos are beautiful additions to a home and not only make your home more hospitable for parties, but also increases its curb appeal should you choose to sell your house. Gazebos and pergolas are some of the first things you notice about someone’s backyard, and now that the weather is finally warming up, homeowners are looking into how to spruce up their yards. So, what is the difference between a pergola and a gazebo, and which one is the right choice for your home? Well, this video offers us some insight on the subject.
A pergola, unlike a gazebo, is a garden feature that makes a passageway, walkway, or seating area using long vertical poles and a flat roof. Many park and gardens use this structure to create a whimsical and dreamy feel.
A gazebo, on the other hand, is an enclosed area where the roof meets at a point. In addition, gazebos have a raised deck floor, while pergolas utilize the natural ground. Whether you call a gazebo builder or pergola builder depends on the goals for your outdoor space.
