Neighborhood rules shape what you can build. Here is how to design a pergola that gets approved the first time.
Many Middle Tennessee neighborhoods have homeowners associations with rules on size, height, color and materials. A pergola that ignores them may be denied, delayed or ordered removed. A pergola designed with the rules in mind moves through approval easily.
We read your covenants, measure setbacks and prepare drawings and material samples that make it easy for a review board to say yes. We match colors and styles to the house and neighborhood, and we can attend or support the approval process when needed.
Covenants and setbacks checked.
