Why is floor area not enough to calculate the price?

Two pergolas covering the same area may need different solutions. A wall-mounted structure, a freestanding structure and an installation on a terrace with difficult access do not necessarily need the same supports or installation work. A quote should make those differences clear.

What should the proposal include?

Ask for an itemised description so you can see what you are buying and which work is excluded.

• Dimensions, frame material, finish and roof system.
• Fixings, drainage and any site preparation.
• Motors, lighting or side enclosures where requested.
• Transport, installation, VAT and any electrical work.
• Expected schedule and warranty terms for each component.

What information helps with a quote?

Send the project location, wide photographs and close-ups of support points, approximate width and depth, and your intended use. Explain whether you want shade for dining, a restaurant terrace cover or a balcony roof. Initial measurements help start the conversation; the final solution needs a technical assessment.

How do you compare two quotes?

Compare proposals covering the same materials and work. Check that both include installation, equipment and taxes. A price difference may reflect a different roof system, base preparation or accessories. Ask for clarification before choosing on the total alone.

What is the next step?

Select pergolas in the quote request and describe the space. Our team confirms the information needed to prepare a proposal. Final measurements, scheduling and conditions are agreed for your installation.
