Outdoor Shade Structures Built to Match Your Space

Pergolas, Gazebos & Arbors in West Virginia

Custom-Built Style, Shade & Structure

Enhance Your Outdoor Space with Wood or Vinyl Features

Pergolas, gazebos, and arbors bring shape, style, and shade to decks, patios, and gardens. At Alliance Deck Builders of West Virginia, we design and build these features to match your layout, goals, and aesthetic. Whether you want a rustic cedar pergola over a grill station, a freestanding gazebo for lounging, or a decorative arbor for your garden entrance—we build it from the ground up, the right way.

Freestanding or Built-In Designs

We Build Pergolas and Gazebos on Any Surface

Our shade structures can be installed on decks, patios, concrete pads, or directly in your yard. We anchor everything properly using posts, footings, and corrosion-resistant hardware. Choose from open beam pergolas, full-roof gazebos, or decorative arbors with archways. Want lighting, fans, or climbing plants? We’ll frame and finish your build to support it.

  • Cedar, pressure-treated, composite, or vinyl options

  • Attached or freestanding framing options

  • Optional lighting, curtains, or fan mounts

Form Meets Function

Add Shade, Structure, and Focal Points

These aren’t just decorative—they’re useful. Pergolas offer partial shade and create distinct outdoor zones. Gazebos provide full shelter for seating, hot tubs, or quiet retreats. Arbors define entry points or pathways while supporting vines or lights. We build every structure to handle real West Virginia weather using sturdy posts, sealed joints, and long-lasting finishes.

Built to Blend with Your Home or Garden

We Match Materials, Trim & Rooflines

Whether your home is brick, vinyl, or wood-sided, we build shade structures that feel like part of your property—not an afterthought. We offer gable or hip roofs for gazebos, curved or flat beam options for pergolas, and trim styles that match your siding and posts. We can also paint, stain, or leave cedar natural—whatever best suits your space.

Perfect Add-On to Any Deck or Yard

Combine with Seating, Lighting, or Privacy Screens

Shade structures pair beautifully with other outdoor features. We can frame your pergola around a dining area, build a gazebo beside your pool, or set an arbor at your garden’s edge. We also offer upgrades like integrated seating, hanging lights, fan supports, and privacy screens—so your structure becomes a true destination.

Why Add a Pergola, Gazebo, or Arbor?

  • Shade Where You Need It: Create partial or full shade on decks, patios, or gardens with custom framing.

  • Decorative and Functional: These structures enhance curb appeal while adding real outdoor comfort and use.

  • Built to Match: We customize size, style, and trim to complement your home or landscape.

  • Sturdy, Safe Framing: Pressure-treated posts, sealed joints, and proper anchoring ensure long-term durability.

Don't worry, we can help!

What You Can Customize

No two outdoor structures are the same. We walk you through size, placement, materials, roof options, and decorative upgrades. Whether you want an elegant cedar beam look or a low-maintenance vinyl finish, we help you decide based on weather, budget, and style. Then we build it strong and safe—ready for climbing vines or a full party.

  • Framing type: cedar, vinyl, composite, or treated wood

  • Beam styles: curved, boxed, or open lattice

  • Roof options: shingled, metal, or exposed rafter

Already Have a Structure?

We Repair or Replace Old Pergolas and Gazebos

If your existing pergola or gazebo is sagging, rotted, or no longer safe, we can repair or replace it. We’ll inspect posts, beams, and connections, then rebuild using current codes and longer-lasting materials. You can keep the look—or use the rebuild as a chance to upgrade. Either way, we’ll make sure it’s secure, level, and weather-ready.

FAQs About Outdoor Shade Structures

Here’s what homeowners ask most when adding or upgrading a pergola, arbor, or gazebo in West Virginia.

Question 1: Do pergolas provide full shade?

Not fully—but we can add slats, curtains, or canopies for increased sun protection.

Question 2: Can I add a pergola to an existing deck?

Yes. We anchor pergolas directly to deck framing with reinforced hardware and flashing.

Question 3: What’s the difference between a gazebo and a pergola?

Pergolas have open beams; gazebos have full roofs and offer full shade and weather cover.

Question 4: Can I use vinyl instead of wood?

Absolutely. We offer low-maintenance vinyl and composite options that resist moisture and UV.
