Fairfax Contractor Builds Pergolas

Fairfax Contractor can build a pergola for your new patio, deck or Hardscape project. Fairfax Contractor can build a wide variety of unique pergola designs. Pergola projects built in Northern Virginia by Fairfax contractor can be built with a wide variety of material. Some of our pergolas are built with pressure lumber and capped with PVC material. Other pergolas we build are just pressure treated lumber that can be painted or stained at a later date. After designing your pergola we will start with the building of the structure. The first step is to dig out the area where the main structural posts will be installed. In Northern Virginia a 2' deep footer will  be needed to support your pergola. It takes just some 6"x 6" Pt lumber set in 3000 psi concrete to start the job. Building codes in VA will be used to span the space of your support posts. We will factor and meet VA building codes for compliance. Once the support 6'x6" columns have been properly plumbed and ready we can proceed to the next step of the construction of your pergola. Depending on the size of the pergola, we will bolt on support beams to the columns. The dimension of the beam lumber will be determined by the span of the support beams to the columns. This will conform to local NOVA building codes. After the basic structure has been built, we can add one or two layers of pergola joists. These pergola rafters can be fashioned into your personal style. Some people like to see a Asian infused rafter end style, while others prefer a more rustic, or simplistic style. It's all up to you, we can build and design whatever your mind imagines.

Options When Building a Pergola

Some of the extra features we can add to your pergola include custom fiberglass columns, or a stone water table.For a nice pergola think about lighting and sound. This may sound exciting, and it is, taking your pergola to the next level! Fairfax Contractor can add low-voltage lighting, or high-voltage lighting to your pergola, to give it a custom look. Though low-voltage lighting is an inexpensive way to really bring your pergola project to the next level. But you may want to install high-voltage lighting, and even an outdoor fan too.

Low Maintenance Vinyl Pergolas

PVC or vinyl for pergolas are a fantastic option if you're looking for a maintenance free addition to your home. When we build a vinyl portico we utilize hollow beams, rafters, and support columns. The pergola will be built to County codes, as it is constructed of pressure-treated lumber. But when we build a vinyl, or PVC portico, we will start adding the hollow tubes over the pressure-treated lumber. The beams, rafters, and decorative in pieces will neatly fit over the pressure-treated lumber. This superior product has a lifetime warranty that will keep your pergola looking brand-new for many years to come. Just another option Fairfax Contract can enhance your portico project.
