Pergolas & Gazebos

Shade and shelter, built to match your deck

Open pergolas for dappled shade or covered gazebos for full shelter — built in cedar, treated wood or composite and finished to tie into your deck and railings.

Pergolas & gazebos in Campbell River

In short

Campbell River Decks builds custom pergolas and gazebos that make a deck or patio usable in more weather. A pergola gives an open, slatted roof for dappled shade; a gazebo adds a solid roof for full shade and rain shelter. We build in cedar, treated wood or composite, match the finish to your deck and railings, and can add one to an existing deck or design it into a new build.

Cedar pergola built over a deck in Campbell River

Pergola or gazebo?

A pergola has an open roof of beams and slats. It frames the space, throws soft shade through the day, and keeps an airy, open feel — perfect over a seating or dining area.

A gazebo has a solid roof, so it sheds rain and gives full shade. It turns part of your deck into a sheltered spot you can use even when the West Coast weather rolls in. Not sure which fits? We will help you decide.

Pergola & gazebo questions

What’s the difference between a pergola and a gazebo?

A pergola has an open, slatted roof that gives dappled shade and an airy, open feel. A gazebo has a solid roof for full shade and rain shelter, so you can use the space in more weather. We help you pick the right one for how you want to use it.

Can you add a pergola or gazebo to my existing deck?

Yes. We can add one onto an existing deck or patio, as long as the structure can carry it — we check that first — or build it as part of a new deck or rebuild.

What materials do you build them in?

Cedar, pressure-treated wood, or composite, matched to your deck and railings. Cedar is a popular West Coast choice for its look; composite keeps maintenance low.

Do pergolas and gazebos need a permit?

Depending on the size and how the structure is built, a pergola or gazebo may require a building permit from the City of Campbell River. We build to the applicable requirements and flag it during your quote.
