FAQ

Common questions

Quick answers to the questions UK homeowners ask most. Can't see yours? Ask in the quote form and an installer will come back to you.

How long do aluminium pergolas last?
A quality powder-coated aluminium pergola will typically last 20–25+ years with minimal maintenance, often only an annual rinse. Premium brands offer 10–15 year structural warranties.
Can aluminium pergolas have a louvered roof?
Yes — most modern aluminium pergolas use a louvered roof system where the blades rotate to let in sun or close completely against rain. Many can be motorised with remote control or smartphone app.
Are aluminium pergolas good for UK weather?
Very good. Powder-coated aluminium handles rain, wind, salt and frost without corroding or warping. Louvered designs let rainwater drain through integrated gutters, keeping the area underneath dry.
