Quality poolside Cedar Pergola in Collegeville, PA Cherokee Pergola
A Word from the Customer
When Jon, the owner of this cedar pergola, saw the quality of our buildings, he decided he will purchase both a pergola and shed. He wanted a pergola as a centerpiece to complement the surroundings and a shed to store his pool equipment and supplies. Consider his enthusiastic review:
If you are in the market for a shed or a pergola, then Pequea Storage Shed is the place to go. We ordered both a shed and a pergola for a backyard pool area and they exceeded every expectation we had, from design to install. We have never had a better purchasing experience. They are totally accommodating in every aspect of picking out what you want and need, especially if you have never had a shed or a pergola before, they can help you visualize your structure and order with confidence that it will be everything you want it to be. The cedar pergola that they built for us on site is truly a work of art. They are great craftsmen, who take immense pride in their work, both on and off site. In a world of mass production and impersonal service, Pequea stands out for their very personal service and quality of workmanship!
Jon was a great customer to work with. He was happy to with the work performed by Lancaster County Backyard. Now he has a pergola that he can enjoy for years to come.
What is a pool without a backyard centerpiece?
Backyard pools are a great experience. Without a centerpiece, however, they can be incomplete. Providing a great place to sit and relax after a dip, a wooden pergola enhances the pool experience.
In the summer of 2016, the owner of this cedar pergola contacted Lancaster County Backyard. He already had a swimming pool installed in his backyard, the swimming pool was incomplete by itself. Looking for more than a place to hang a swing, he wanted to make his backyard beautiful and enjoyable for any occasion. What he wanted was a decorative pergola to complete the backyard.
Benefits of a Cedar Pergola
Cedar wood is a superior wood for ornate and long-lasting constructions. First of all, it is some of the most durable wood available because it resists rot and insects very well. Additionally, it does not even warp or crack like the long-lasting pressure-treated southern pine. With its tight grains that are hard to penetrate, it is a naturally stable wood that is great for outdoor use. Finally, it exudes the smell of a deep and tranquil forest. With a cedar pergola, you can swim or relax with a delightful cedar aroma.
Admittedly, cedar is not as rot resistant as pressure-treated southern pine. However, it’s additional natural and quality aspects place it miles ahead of pressure-treated wood. Pressure-treated wood may last, but it tends to crack and warp. Furthermore, it is not naturally treated. Cedar, on the other hand, is lasting, natural, beautiful, and aromatic.
