Built Like the Rest of Your House
Homestead doesn't ship pergolas off a stack. Each one is designed and built one at a time in Pennsylvania — with the same structural lumber, double headers, and joinery you'd want for a porch addition or a roof framing job.
That means you choose the size, the post style, the rafter ends, the stain or vinyl color. It also means lead time matters — ordering a Homestead pergola is more like commissioning a piece than picking one off a shelf. We'll plan around your installation date.
All three of their pergola styles — Elegant Wood, Elegant Vinyl, and Cozy Arch — share the same construction approach: solid laminated posts, double 2×8 headers with decorative ends, 2×6 rafters, engineered L-brackets, and anchor brackets for concrete patios or wood decks.
Elegant Wood
Pressure-treated pine posts and rafters, solid through-and-through. Decorative rafter ends and corner braces give it the warmth that makes a yard feel finished. Stain it — or leave it natural and let it weather.
Standard Features
- Solid laminated 5″×5″×95″ posts
- Double 2×8 headers with decorative ends
- 2×6 rafters with decorative ends
- 1⅜″ square stringers, 5″ standard spacing
- Engineered L-brackets to resist warping
- Anchor brackets for concrete patio or wood deck
Options
Stain Options
Clear sealer, cedar, mahogany, canyon brown, cinder. Or leave it unstained.
Ask about Elegant WoodElegant Vinyl
Same lines as the wood pergola, finished in maintenance-free vinyl over pressure-treated lumber. The look stays clean for decades — no staining, no sealing, no warping in NJ humidity.
Standard Features
- 6″×6″×95″ posts (vinyl over PT wood core)
- Double 2×8 headers with decorative ends
- 2×6 rafters with decorative ends
- PT wood inserts for maximum strength
- 1½″ square stringers, 5″ standard spacing
- Anchor brackets for concrete patio or wood deck
Vinyl Colors
NEW · Vinyl Wall-Mount Pergola
Available in sizes from 3′×7′ up to 3′×40′. Anchors directly to your home for a covered walkway, side-yard structure, or front-entry feature.
Cozy Arch
A more sculptural take on the pergola — arched headers and a softer profile. The arch reads as architecture rather than framing, which works well next to a curved patio, a garden bed, or a poolside cabana.
Available In
- Wood (stained or unstained PT pine)
- Vinyl (white, almond, clay)
- Lattice roof option
- Privacy wall option
- Standard or superior posts
Same Homestead joinery and structural specs as the Elegant series — the difference is the arched header profile.
