Commercial installs cluster around Dean Clough and Halifax town centre. Residential work runs across stone terraces stepping up Skircoat and King Cross and cottages in Hebden Bridge and Sowerby.
Frequently asked questions
Can I site it away from the house?
Yes — whole point. We check underground services on survey before confirming location.
How does West Yorkshire weather affect the spec?
one of the wettest catchments in England — gutter capacity and slope calculations get real attention on every quote. Engineered to postcode wind and snow load; roof pitch set to shed rather than pond.
What's the biggest free-standing pergola?
Single-span up to 6m x 5m on four posts; larger goes to six posts or multi-bay layout.
Can I run power to it?
Yes — garden spur wires LED, heaters, speaker points into the frame at build stage.
How does the drainage work?
4-way integrated gutter routes to downpipes in each corner post, tied into your surface drainage. Sized to West Yorkshire rainfall.
