Adding Shade To Your Backyard This Summer

A shady respite from the summer sun sounds awfully good. Especially in a year where travel comes with its own set of worries and many of us are spending more time at home.

Why not enhance the place and make better use of your space? Let’s talk about pergolas and why they make perfect sense for your property.

A pergola is an outdoor structure consisting of columns that support a roofing grid of beams and rafters. The grid above can be open or covered so as to create an area sheltered from the elements. Pergolas may be attached to a house or pool area or may be free-standing.

Carl’s fabricates and installs pergolas of all sizes and styles. We’re a second-generation family business with 30 years of experience. We know the New Jersey market and the market knows us – Carl’s is consistently ranked “Best of the Best” in the annual Asbury Park Press Readers Poll.

A pergola not only provides you with a cool space, it provides a touch of elegance and history. Popular during the Italian Renaissance, they continue to lend classic styling to the support columns. They can be quite majestic.

Once built, pergolas support vines and other climbing plants that add to the beauty of the piece and block the sun. This creates a sitting area of beauty that is bunkered from the harsher elements.
