Lakeside living, well shaded. Pergolas, shade structures and outdoor living for homes, builders and businesses.
Hermitage has established neighborhoods, mature trees and easy access to the lakes. Families here spend a lot of time outside, and many yards have decks, patios and pools that would benefit from real shade.
Mature trees and sloped lots affect where posts can go, and older decks and slabs need checking before a pergola is added. Humidity near the water is hard on wood, so finish and drainage matter.
In a leafy, established area, a pergola should fit the trees and the lot. A thoughtful layout gives shade where the family sits and keeps the yard feeling open.
We work around the trees and the neighbors and leave the yard clean. We begin with a yard visit, walk the property with you and give you drawings and a written scope, so you know what the work includes before it starts.
Every Music City Pergola project starts with listening, a careful walk of the yard and the house, drawings, a plan for permits and approvals and a clear written scope before work begins. We build it with care, finish it well and leave the site clean.
