Frequently Asked Questions

Permit requirements vary by municipality and depend on factors such as size, height, and placement. Many areas allow gazebos under a certain square footage to be built without a permit, while others may require one regardless of size. We recommend confirming with your local building department, and our team is always happy to help guide you through local requirements.

Gazebos can be installed on several foundation types, including concrete pads, patio stones, helical piles, or deck-style foundations. The best option depends on your site conditions, soil type, and intended use. A proper foundation ensures long-term stability, drainage, and performance, and our team can help you determine the best solution for your property.

Absolutely. Summerwood gazebos can be customized in size, roof style, materials, finishes, and optional features such as screens, railings, or electrical prep.

The main difference is the roof. A gazebo features a fully enclosed, solid roof that provides full protection from sun and rain, making it ideal for all-weather use. A pergola typically has an open or slatted roof designed primarily for shade and aesthetics. If you're looking for year-round coverage and shelter, a gazebo is usually the better choice.

Like royalty, it will age gracefully, becoming more beautiful as the years pass. Learn more about our gazebo materials.

Other Considerations when
Shopping for Gazebos

Choosing your gazebo style is important, but there are a few other considerations. First you'll want to think of placement. Will the surrounding foliage enhance your gazebo's beauty in all four seasons? Do you want to maximize sun exposure? Will you be wiring your gazebo and adding lighting or a fan? Do you want an enclosed gazebo for a hot tub? (Some people call that a spa or hot tub gazebo.) If you're elevating it, are there to be stairs and how do you picture them? What sort of skirting covers the space between the ground and floor? These gazebo tips and ideas, which we've collected over time, will help you feel confident in your decisions. You'll have access to our online gazebo construction videos that illustrates how our structures go together.
