DIY Pergola Plans

Planning a DIY Pergola.

 Know how you want your pergola to function.
Some DIY can be done with out too much thought but before tackling a DIY Pergola you do need to think about why you want one in the first place and what type of pergola you want, do you want an attached pergola which is actually an extension to your house or a a free standing one.Take time to think about which would benefit you the most and which would add the most value to your property.

The most important step before starting your DIY Pergola should be to buy some quality plans . Do not start anything until you have taken these to your local planning office and obtained permission to build your pergola.Your next step should be to check the area for any water,electric or gas lines.Do not think of starting your DIY Pergola until you have followed these basic rules, it will save you a lot of head aches later on.

Only when you have done this should you start your DIY Pergola.

Planning Where To Put Your Pergola.
If you are building a DIY Pergola :
You have to give proper thought about where
to put your pergola. Do not simply put the pergola in the bare
area of our garden.

Instead of randomly choosing a place to put your pergola,
you need to consider the following:

* Direction. North-facing pergolas make the best use of the
sun.

* Proximity to trees. If you want a lot of shade, position
it closer to trees. If you less shade, position it away
from trees. Speaking of trees, if your trees need trimming
and pruning, get that done before you put up your pergola.

* Whether you are building a DIY Pergola, or having one built
Check with your city hall 
to see if there are restrictions on where you can put your
pergola.

The purpose of your pergola will largely dictate where you
put it.

If it's meant to be a quiet retreat you'll probably locate
it further away from the house.

If it's meant to be a focal point of your garden, you'll
locate it with gardening in mind.

Just make sure you put enough thought into the location
before you start building.

And when you do start building, I hope you'll use one of
Charles Kirklandspergola plans.


There are extremely affordable and you or any builder will
be able to understand them.

Should you have any difficulty when you use the plans, just
email him for help.

Sometimes people wonder why Charles Kirkland sells these plans so cheaply.
Why not I sell pergola kits for hundreds and thousands of
dollars instead and make a real killing in the pergola
market?

Frankly, I do not think he is interested in that. he loves pergolas and
the more pergolas, the better. If I can encourage you to do
it yourself with Charles Kirklands plans, it will be easier for you to
afford a pergola, and add value to your property.

So go on over to Charles Kirklands website and check out all the pergola
plan designs.

After you build your new pergola I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks,
