Outdoor Wood Patio Sun Shade built near Longmont Colorado by Esh Construction

The pergola shown here was built on an existing concrete patio. The building material consists of Douglas Fir wood and was stained with an Olympic Semi Transparent Stain to increase it’s durability in Colorado extreme weather.

The project was approved by the local HOA prior to being built. A building permit was not required for this pergola structure because it was built within the square footage limitations set by the local jurisdiction for structures not requiring building permits.

This pergola was fully installed on site for less than $1500 including all labor, material, and delivery. It added a large shaded area to the which had previously been unpleasantly hot in direct summer sunlight. It also greatly improved the landscape at a relatively low cost to the homeowner.
