Expert Pergola Construction in Central Texas
Serving Round Rock, Austin, Georgetown, and surrounding areas with premium roofing solutions.
Professional Pergola Construction Services
Transform your backyard into an outdoor oasis with a custom-built pergola. At Ripple Roofing & Construction, we design and build beautiful, durable pergolas that provide shade, define outdoor living areas, support climbing plants, and dramatically increase your home's value and curb appeal. Whether you envision a cozy patio retreat, an elegant entertaining space, or a stunning poolside structure, our craftsmanship delivers. We work with premium materials including pressure-treated lumber, cedar, composite materials, and aluminum—each selected for Central Texas's challenging climate (intense sun, high humidity, occasional storms). Every pergola is custom-designed to your specifications: size, style (traditional, modern, rustic, contemporary), roof style (open lattice, louvered, solid), and integrated features (lighting, fans, privacy screens, built-in seating). Serving Round Rock, Austin, Georgetown, and throughout Central Texas, we handle design, permits, foundation work, construction, and finishing. Most projects completed in 3-5 days. Includes detailed 3D design mockups so you see exactly what you're getting before we build.
At Ripple Roofing & Construction, we understand the unique challenges that Central Texas weather presents to your roof. From intense summer heat to severe storms, our pergola construction services are designed to protect your property year-round.
Our Process
Free Consultation & Site Assessment
We visit your property to understand your vision, assess the installation site, evaluate sunlight patterns and wind exposure, discuss how you'll use the space (dining, lounging, entertaining, gardening), review existing landscaping and structures, and take measurements and photos. We help you determine optimal size, location, and orientation for your pergola. Free consultation includes design ideas and preliminary budget discussion.
Custom Design & 3D Visualization
Our design team creates a custom pergola plan tailored to your home's architecture and your lifestyle. You receive 3D renderings showing exactly what your pergola will look like from multiple angles, detailed floor plans with dimensions, material selections and color options, integrated feature options (lighting, fans, privacy screens, planters), and transparent itemized pricing. We refine the design until it's perfect—you approve before we build anything.
Permits & HOA Approvals
We handle all permits required by your city (Round Rock, Austin, Georgetown, etc.) and coordinate HOA approvals if needed. Many Texas cities require permits for structures over 200 sq ft or attached to homes. We ensure your pergola meets all building codes for wind load, foundation requirements, and setback regulations. You don't deal with any red tape—we manage the entire approval process.
Foundation & Structural Installation
We begin with proper foundation work—concrete footings below frost line (12-18 inches in Central Texas), pier and beam or slab mounting depending on design, or deck attachment with structural bolts if adding to existing deck. Then we install structural posts (typically 6x6 or larger), horizontal beams and cross rafters, all hardware concealed or decorative, and proper bracing for Texas wind loads. Every connection is engineered for strength and longevity.
Finishing Touches & Custom Features
We complete your pergola with finishing details that make it extraordinary: staining or painting (if wood) with UV-resistant finishes, integrated LED lighting for ambiance and functionality, ceiling fans with remote controls, retractable shade systems or fabric canopies, privacy screens or lattice panels, built-in seating or planters, and decorative hardware and accents. Most projects completed in 3-5 days with thorough cleanup daily.
Final Walkthrough & Care Instructions
We conduct a comprehensive walkthrough of your completed pergola, explain all features and controls (fans, lights, retractable shades), provide maintenance instructions for your specific materials, give you warranty documentation (5-year workmanship warranty), schedule follow-up inspection after 30 days, and ensure you're 100% thrilled with your new outdoor space. Your backyard is now an extension of your home!
