In addition to our usual pergola that we have offered for some time, we have been delighted to have quite a few specific requests from customers and garden designers for larger, bespoke pergolas.
The photo above shows one we made and installed in Summer 2017. The site where we have positioned the bespoke pergola originally had a structure there, with a mature Wisteria clambering all over it. Our installation team dismantled the structure, carefully and tenderly untwining the wisteria. After construction of the new pergola, the Wisteria was gently coaxed onto its new home and we are happy to report is thriving. An oak swing seat large enough for four adults was hung to complete the design.
Our customer said of her new bespoke pergola:
"Martin and his team created an exquisite bespoke pergola and oak swing seat for us this summer.
Martin listened very carefully to our needs and he and his team designed an elegant structure that creatively managed the large 11m patio we were looking to cover. He used his team’s horticultural experience to both diarise and execute the project to save our beautiful 80 year old wisteria and vine supported by his design. We had a wonderful team onsite who worked hard to explain every stage of the assembly project, even to our young sons who were most excited by it all! At every step their first objective was to ensure we were satisfied with their efforts. Martin and his team are real artists with wood and their passion is infectious. They are also fantastic company and we were very sorry to see them leave our garden, although so delighted with the stunning result!" Helen Beurier
During October 2017 we have also successfully installed another bespoke pergola for a garden designer incorporating our Swinging Day Bed. Photos will be on our website shortly.
We are always happy to discuss your own, or your garden designers ideas with you and can provide a full make and install pergola service.
We are also happy to offer an installation service for our Swinging Day Bed & Swing Seat Pergolas, just ask us.
