California's top-rated pergola assembly service. We assemble every brand — Yardistry, Backyard Discovery, Hampton Bay, Sojag, and modern louvered aluminum pergolas. From Costco cedar kits to motorized louvered systems, our 2-person crew handles it all with proper anchoring and same-day completion.
A pergola transforms your backyard into an outdoor living room. Unlike a gazebo's solid roof, a pergola's open-beam design creates filtered shade, supports climbing vines, and provides the perfect framework for string lights and outdoor curtains. Whether you're after the classic warmth of a Costco Yardistry cedar pergola or the sleek rain protection of a louvered aluminum system, we assemble them all.
Our assembly crews have built hundreds of pergolas across Southern California, the Bay Area, and the Central Valley. We know the quirks of every major brand — from Yardistry's pre-drilled cedar beams to Hampton Bay's aluminum connector systems to Backyard Discovery's steel-reinforced wood frames. Every installation includes precision leveling, secure post anchoring to your specific surface, and complete cleanup.
Choose a pergola if: You want an open, airy feel with partial shade. Pergolas are ideal for vine growing (wisteria, bougainvillea, jasmine), hanging string lights, and creating a defined outdoor space without blocking airflow. They're generally easier to get HOA approval for because of their open design.
Choose a gazebo if: You want complete weather protection with a solid roof. Gazebos keep you dry in rain and fully shaded in sun. They're better for outdoor dining areas and hot tub enclosures. Browse our gazebo assembly services for more details.

Real reviews from verified customers
"Bought the Yardistry 12x14 cedar pergola from Costco and dreaded assembling it myself after seeing how many pieces were in the boxes. These guys had it up in about 5 hours. Perfectly level, beautifully anchored to our concrete patio. Worth every penny."
"We splurged on a motorized louvered aluminum pergola and needed pros to install it. The team was knowledgeable about the electrical hookup, calibrated all the louvers perfectly, and tested the rain sensor before they left. It's the best addition to our backyard."
"Had a Hampton Bay aluminum pergola assembled on our back deck. They anchored it to the deck boards and joists with heavy-duty brackets. Rock solid, looks fantastic with the string lights we hung afterward. Great communication and very fair price."
