Self Assembly

Yes. All our pergolas, verandas and glass rooms are supplied as flat-pack kits with the necessary structural parts, fixings and assembly instructions included. Many customers complete the build themselves or use a trusted local contractor or builder.

Most builds require standard assembly tools including a drill, socket tools, measuring equipment, ladders and a spirit level. Depending on your surface, specialist drill bits may also be needed. Full guidance is included with your kit.
