Pergolas & Arbors

The key difference between pergolas and arbors are appearance. Arbors usually have two or four posts, while pergolas almost always have four or more posts. The sides of a pergola are left open, but an arbor has its sides covered with lattice or trellis. Pergolas are usually building using aluminum, vinyl, cedarwood, or redwood while arbors consist of vinyl, composite, wood, or metal.

Yes and no. Unlike most home improvement construction companies, we have an in-house design and carpentry team that are with you every step of the way. This gives us the innate ability to have more control over the project schedule, leading to faster completion times for you.

When we do hire subcontractors, it's the same team every time. You can trust that they know what's expected of them - a level of quality unmatched by our competitors.

After hearing the three main complaints about other contractors - not answering the phone, not showing up when expected, and not doing quality work - we decided that we could do it better. It’s easy to answer the phone and to show up on time, but ensuring quality work only comes from loving and taking pride in what you do. When you choose H3, you can trust to receive unparalleled customer service and support for your project.

Arbors and covered porches are covered by 2 years of workmanship. We ensure the wood is in good condition when installed. However, natural changes like checking, splitting, cracking, splintering, and shrinking are not covered by the warranty. Since wood is affected by factors we can't control, we won't cover any issues caused by lack of staining, improper watering, drought, freezing, insect damage, or abuse. If any of these happen, the warranty is no longer valid.
