Building Material Choices for Wooden Pergolas

At Pergola Depot, we offer top-quality material choices in our wood pergola kits, each with its distinct characteristics. Here are details about our popular wood selections.

  • Rough-Sawn Western Red Cedar: Known for its longevity, rough-sawn Western red cedar resists decay and insect damage. Its rich color palette, from light amber to deep honey brown, ages gracefully to a distinguished silver-gray, requiring only occasional cleaning and sealing to retain its beauty. Western red cedar is sustainably harvested in North America.
  • #1 Pressure-Treated Southern Yellow Pine: Treated to ward off decay, insects and weathering, this sturdy option offers a natural, rustic appeal. It can be painted or stained to your liking once the pressure treatment has dried (typically 2-3 months after installation, depending on your local climate). Southern Yellow Pine is sustainably harvested in the southeastern United States.

Each wood type brings its unique charm and functional benefits, providing versatile options to match your aesthetic and durability needs for the perfect outdoor retreat.

What Maintenance Can I Expect with Pergola Depot Wood Pergolas?

Our wood pergolas are designed with ease of maintenance in mind. The choice of wood type dictates the level of upkeep. Cedar and pine are low-maintenance options needing just occasional cleaning and a quality finish application to retain their color and integrity. We recommend painting or staining pressure-treated pine and rough-sawn western red cedar every year or every two years, especially in harsh climates, for lasting durability and appearance.

How Many Posts Will My Pergola Have?

All our standard freestanding pergola designs, including the Big Kahuna, Big Kahuna Solar-ready, Big Kahuna PLUS, Sombrero, Melbourne and Fedora, come engineered with four posts. Attached wooden pergola kits come with two. However, for larger wooden pergolas, additional support posts are required to bear the additional weight. For larger sizes, please request a custom quote or contact us for further assistance.
