Understanding The Difference Between Gazebos, Pergolas, and Pavilions

When enhancing your outdoor living space, choosing the right type of outdoor structure is key. Gazebos, pergolas, and pavilions, while very similar, offer distinct features and functionalities suited to different landscaping needs.

Gazebos: Traditionally octagonal in shape, gazebos are standalone structures often placed in garden settings. They feature a solid roof and partially open sides, providing shelter while maintaining a connection with the surrounding landscape. Gazebos are ideal for creating a secluded retreat in your garden, offering a shaded spot for relaxation or an intimate space for outdoor dining.

Pergolas: Pergolas are outdoor structures characterized by their open lattice or cross-beam roofs and usually supported on columns or posts. They are perfect for defining spaces like dining areas or outdoor lounges. Pergolas provide partial shade, making them ideal for areas where you want to enjoy both sun and shade. They can also support climbing plants, adding a natural, green touch to your outdoor area.

Pavilions: Similar to gazebos, pavilions are larger and typically rectangular or square. They provide full coverage with a solid roof and are often used as an extension of the home. Pavilions are great for larger gatherings, offering sheltered outdoor space for entertainment, dining, or relaxation. They can be placed near a pool, in a spacious garden, or as a centerpiece in your backyard.

In an outdoor living space, the choice between a gazebo, pergola, and pavilion often depends on the intended use, available space, budget, and personal preferences. Gazebos offer a charming escape in a garden setting, pergolas integrate seamlessly with your landscaping for a stylish outdoor living area, and pavilions serve as a versatile space for larger gatherings and family activities.

How Much Do Gazebos Or Pergolas Cost?

An outdoor structure like a pergola, gazebo, or pavilion is a great way to complete your new outdoor living space

Smaller Structures

$2,500 - $4,000

This would be for a small wood pergola type structure on your back deck, across a pathway, or in your garden.

Medium Spaces

$4,000 - $8,000

This would be for a larger pergola or gazebo type structure on your back deck or patio, or in your garden area.

Large Spaces

$8,000 - $20,000+

This would be for a larger pavilion type structure on your back deck, next to your pool, or to cover an outdoor dining area.

Choosing Between Pre-Made Kits and Custom-Built Options for Your Outdoor Structures

When deciding on an outdoor structure like a gazebo, pergola, or pavilion, you have two primary options: purchase a pre-made kit or get a custom-built design. Both choices offer unique benefits, but it's essential to consider the complexities of actually installing an outdoor structure before proceeding.

Pre-Made Kits: These kits come with all the necessary components and instructions for assembly. They offer convenience and a quicker installation process, with designs varying from basic to more intricate styles. However, it's important to note that even with pre-made kits, the installation can be challenging, requiring specific tools and a certain level of expertise to ensure structural integrity and safety.

Custom-Built Options: Custom-built structures are tailored to your specific preferences and the unique characteristics of your landscape. They provide the flexibility to choose materials, sizes, and designs that perfectly match your outdoor space and personal style. Custom outdoor structures can be more complex and require skilled craftsmanship, making them a task best left to a team of professional landscapers.

While DIY installation might seem appealing, it's important to consider the potential challenges and risks. Working with a professional landscaping company like Rodrigo’s Landscaping ensures that whether you choose a pre-made kit or a custom-built structure, it will be constructed safely and correctly.

Our team has the expertise to handle any complexities, ensuring your outdoor structure is not only beautiful but also durable and structurally sound.

Let us take the burden off your shoulders and provide you with a hassle-free installation, enhancing your outdoor living experience with the perfect gazebo, pergola, or pavilion.

I emailed the company from the website asking for an estimate. I was quickly contacted to discuss the project. Rodrigo was able to provide a rough estimate based on measurements and a sketch of what I was wanting. He then setup a time to come to the site to verify/confirm the project. The estimate provided over the phone was very close to the “real” estimate…no hidden fees or charges. If you’re looking for a professional that is prompt, responsive, and provides a great product, make sure you give Rodrigo’s a call.

I had happened to reach out to Rodrigo for a free estimate and scope of work for a job in my backyard. Rodrigo was very punctual, responsive, and always followed up. He had got the scope of work and proposal on time. He is the guy you could trust. I couldn't do a project with him due to unavoidable reasons at the last minute but came here to leave a review about his professionalism!!!!

Highly recommend Rodrigo’s Landscaping to anybody who is looking to get a professional work done. They did an amazing job making a concrete retaining wall for us. They worked very fast and finished the job in just 2 days. Very happy with the results. Also, they followed the contract and executed everything in the way we asked them to. Would use them again in the future.

For the past 2 years, I have been searching for a good hardscaping company which can help transform my backyard / frontyard. Many contractors would come and take a look and would either not send the quote or never understood what I was looking for from landscaping design standpoint. I contacted Rodrigo through FB and he came the next day(I believe Sunday) to take a look and gave me a quote in couple of days. Rodrigo is thorough and easy to work with. He will make sure you are satisfied with the design and outcome of the project. He is there at every stage of the project, continuously monitoring the progress and answer any questions I had at each stage. His team works really well and does a thorough job. At times, I raised concerns that the work is not as expected and his team took the inputs/feedback and made corrections and completed the work to satisfaction. All in all, Rodrigo’s Landscaping team did a fantastic job with my backyard / frontyard. I would highly recommend them for any major project you want to get done. You will not be disappointed.

I've used Rodrigo Landscaping for three major projects at my residence; Cedar Mulch and tree & leaf removal that accumulated for 15yrs. I was impress with his professionalism i hired him again to install three 9ft green giant trees and cut down a few trees to allow the new trees to fully grown. The 3rd project was aerate and reseeding my one acre yard. He had an interesting service I had not had for the 20yrs I've owned my home. It was called removal of the dirt buds left by the aeration machine. In summary, he has always kept to his commitment of our landscape contracts and I respect and appreciate his style of running a landscape business. He's a rare gem and I plan to use him again!

Rodrigo and his crew did a marvelous job. First of all Rodrigo responded to our request for a Landscape design and quote the same day. He was on time, very professional and created a landscape design by the next day at a very competitive price. He explained exactly what they would be doing and how long it would take to complete the job. One week later his crew showed up and completed the project that day. They left the site in perfect condition and Rodrigo came by to make sure we were satisfied with the work. I would recommend Rodrigo's Landscaping to anyone. He honest, creative, professional, knowledgeable, reasonable and on time.

We recently hired Rodrigo to regrade our front and back yard, install zoysia sod, create mulch beds with steel borders, add a french drain, and lay stone paths. Rodrigo was professional and delivered on our vision. His team completed the work within a couple of days of starting. We couldn’t be happier with our choice! If you want a job well done I would highly recommend Rodrigo’s Landscaping. The pictures speak for themselves

Rodrigo unexpectedly stopped by and offered to spread a pile of mulch we had sitting in our driveway. We ended up hiring him to weed our landscaping and spread the mulch. He was fast, priced fairly, and detail oriented! We plan to use him for lawn maintenance throughout the upcoming summer.
