Pergolas and Garden Structures in Great Missenden

Pergola Fitters in Great Missenden
We build new pergolas and garden structures in Great Missenden and HP16: the village itself, Prestwood, Little Kingshill, South Heath and The Lee.
With open Chilterns countryside all around, a pergola can frame a view across the fields as well as shading the seating area beneath it.
We build high quality pergolas in timber or aluminium, with lighting and planting, so the outside seating area works from spring into autumn.
The village sits inside the Chilterns National Landscape, and its conservation area takes in the High Street, Church Street and the Abbey parkland.
Covering Great Missenden and the HP16 postcode area.

Choosing a Pergola
Our pergola installation covers two materials, each with its own look and upkeep. We will help you choose the one that suits your garden and how you want to use it.
-
Timber pergolas
A timber pergola, or wood garden structure, gives a classic, natural look that suits most gardens. Pressure-treated softwood or hardwood beams can be stained any colour, and climbers grow happily over them. An occasional re-treat keeps the wood looking its best.
-
Aluminium pergolas
A powder-coated aluminium pergola is light, strong and will not rot or rust, so it needs almost no upkeep. Many come with a louvred roof you can angle for sun or shade, and some close fully against the rain. A crisp, modern look.

Pergola Questions from Great Missenden
Which pergola suits a Great Missenden garden?
A timber pergola with climbers growing over it sits naturally in the Chilterns National Landscape and beside the village’s brick and flint houses.
Do conservation rules affect pergolas in Great Missenden?
The village centre is a conservation area, with more than fifty listed buildings on the High Street, so garden structures there need more care. We check before we build.
Do you build pergolas in the villages around Great Missenden?
Yes. As well as Great Missenden itself, we cover Prestwood, Little Missenden, Little Kingshill, South Heath, Ballinger, Ballinger Common, Bryant's Bottom, Hyde End, Hyde Heath and The Lee, and the rest of the HP16 postcode area.
How long does it take to install a pergola in Great Missenden?
It depends on the size of the pergola, the material and whether the patio or deck beneath it is being built at the same time. Once we have measured up, your quote includes a timescale, so you know how long we will be on site before we start.
Should I choose a timber or aluminium pergola?
Timber gives a natural, classic look, can be stained any colour and suits climbing plants, but it needs an occasional re-treat. Aluminium needs almost no upkeep, will not rot or rust, and often comes with a louvred roof for sun or shade. You can compare them in the section above.
Do I need planning permission for a pergola?
Usually not in a back garden. Garden structures are generally allowed up to 2.5 metres high within 2 metres of a boundary, but the rules are tighter in front gardens, for listed buildings and in some conservation areas. We check this before we start.
Can you add lighting to a pergola?
Yes. Low lights around the seating area, festoon lights across the beams and lighting in the planting turn a pergola into somewhere to sit long after dark.
How much does a new pergola cost in Great Missenden?
It depends on the size, the material and what goes with it, such as paving, decking or lighting. We need to see the garden before we can give you a price, so we offer a free, no-obligation quote. Call 01494 812249 or use the form at the top of the page.
