Design Consulting

Pergola Design Consultation in Greenville, Before You Build

Most outdoor structures go wrong before the first post goes in. Wrong size for the space. Wrong materials for the climate. A slope nobody planned for. A budget set by a guess. A consultation is where you get ahead of all of it. You sit down with a builder who has put up these structures for twenty years and find out what will actually work on your land, what it should cost, and what the catalog quote is not telling you. It is the cheapest part of the whole project and the part that saves the most.

Drawings & Direction

What You Get

Drawings, Materials, and a Straight Answer

A consult gives you something to build from. Design direction and drawings for your structure. Honest guidance on materials, why cedar here, what to skip, where the money matters and where it does not. A feasibility read on your actual site, the slope, the access, the code concerns. And a real number, so you walk in to any builder knowing what the job should run instead of hoping.

  • Layout and design direction
  • Materials guidance
  • Feasibility and budget read

Who It Is For

For Homeowners, DIYers, and Other Builders

For the homeowner who wants the design nailed down before they commit. You get a plan and a price you can trust, and you can hire whoever you want to build it.

For the DIYer who is capable but wants the structure engineered right. We help you get the framing, the spans, and the materials correct so the thing you build by hand stands for decades.

For other builders who hit a design or a site they want a second set of eyes on. Twenty years of these structures is worth a phone call before you commit a crew.
