When you are dealing with the oppressive heat that we see in southern Utah, you will do almost anything to get out of it. Shade is a hot commodity during the summer. If you don’t have any of it in your backyard, you are more than likely trying to figure out how to find some. A fantastic way to get more shade in your backyard is with custom metal pergola. At first glance it might seem like a pergola wouldn’t offer you enough shade to give you reprieve from the hot summer sun. However, if it is angled just right and built well, you will find that it will give you the protection against the sun that you need. Terra Design Group is here to talk about some of the ways that you can benefit from a custom metal pergola in your backyard.

Advantages of Steel or Aluminum Metal Pergolas

There are several reasons why you should consider a metal pergola in your backyard.
– Durability: You will find that choosing to put a custom metal pergola in your backyard will be much more durable than one that is constructed out of wood. You don’t have to worry about it getting damaged by the sun. You also don’t have to worry about refinishing it or painting it. A pergola made out of metal will withstand any severe weather Mother Nature throws at it.
– Easy Entertaining: When you find a way to provide yourself with some shade in your backyard you will find that you use the space far more often. You will have created a space that is perfect for entertaining guests. Not only will it be beautiful, but it will be functional as well.
– Privacy: Even though a pergola is designed to be more of an open concept structure, you will have the framework in place if you would like to add privacy down the road. You can do this by adding privacy shades and you can also do it by planting privacy plants to grow in and around your pergola.
– Home Value: If you are like most homeowners, you want to add elements to your home that will help increase the value of your house. Adding a custom pergola in your backyard is one of those things that will appeal to potential buyers if you were to ever try and sell your home. Curb appeal is always something that you should be thinking about when it comes to your home value.
– Shade: Usually, the number one reason that people put a pergola in their backyard is to offer them the shade they need to use the space even in the heat of the summer.
