Custom Pergolas Builder in Washtenaw County

Custom Pergolas

Thinking about adding structure and shade to your outdoor space? A well-built pergola creates a defined area for relaxing, dining, and spending time outside without fully enclosing the space.

At Ann Arbor Decks, we build custom pergolas designed to fit your layout, integrate with your home, and hold up over time in Michigan conditions.

Pergolas & Open-Air Structures

Pergolas provide filtered shade and help define outdoor spaces without fully enclosing them.

We build:

• Freestanding pergolas over patios or seating areas
• Attached pergolas connected to the home
• Structures integrated into decks
• Options for privacy walls, lighting, and upgraded finishes

Every pergola is built with proper structural support and spacing—not just appearance—so it performs long-term.

Arbors, Trellises & Garden Integration

For homeowners who enjoy gardening or want to better connect their landscaping with their outdoor living space, we also build smaller structures like arbors, trellises and custom planter boxes.

These elements can be used to:

• Define transitions between spaces
• Support climbing plants and greenery
• Add structure to gardens and planting areas
• Integrate with planter boxes, patios, and decks

While pergolas, decks and porches create the primary structure, these smaller features help tie the entire outdoor space together.

Built for Michigan Conditions

We build outdoor structures that are designed to last through Michigan weather.

• Snow load and structural integrity
• Proper footings and anchoring
• Quality Materials
• Long-term durability, not just appearance

This ensures your pergola holds up year after year.
