Detailed information
Quality craftsmanship in every detail
A successful project requires thorough preparation, the right choice of materials, and skilled execution adapted to local Gothenburg conditions.
Create a framed outdoor patio space
A pergola frames your outdoor patio and adds spatial definition without blocking sunlight. The structure pairs naturally with climbing plants or timber slats for cooling summer shade. We tailor dimensions, timber selection, and design to your property and architecture.
- ✓ Bespoke framing tailored to patio or yard layout
- ✓ Sturdy structural timber suited for coastal wind loads
- ✓ Options for integrated trellises and slatted panels
Rigid anchoring & weather-resistant timber
Because outdoor pergolas face weather and wind exposure, we dimension posts and hardware with generous stability margins. We use pressure-treated timber, larch, or painted heartwood, secured into concrete footings or through-bolted into the deck framing.
- ✓ Pressure-treated, larch, or primed timber based on preference
- ✓ Wind-stable anchoring and stainless structural hardware
- ✓ ROT deduction applies when qualifying as connected to the dwelling

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions regarding process, quotes, and work in Gothenburg.
Does a pergola require a building permit in Gothenburg?
Permit requirements depend on the property, local zoning rules, and design details. An open pergola with spaced slats typically does not require a permit, whereas solid roofs or tall enclosures may be subject to permits or notification. Always check your local municipality guidelines; we adapt framing accordingly.
Can a pergola be built directly on top of an existing deck?
Yes, provided the deck joists and foundation beneath post positions are adequately sized. We reinforce framing underneath where needed.
Does the ROT tax deduction apply to building a pergola?
ROT deduction generally applies only when the pergola is attached to or in direct connection with the residential house, subject to tax requirements. Completely freestanding garden pergolas do not qualify for ROT. We advise based on your specific setup.
What wood species do you recommend for a pergola?
For high stability we recommend glue-laminated timber or heavy pressure-treated lumber. Larch or thermo-treated wood are great choices for a natural weathered appearance.
