Blending form and function to create an enchanting outdoor haven, a pergola is a wonderful way to inject style into your garden while remaining practical. Whether you're looking for a place to relax, entertain, or connect with nature, a pergola offers endless possibilities to enhance your outdoor space and your property.
At Fair Dinkum Builds, we believe that a pergola shouldn't be a "one size fits all" thing, which is why we offer tailored designs that allow you to inject your personality into a space while meeting your exact needs.

Our Range of Different Pergola Styles & Options
Wondering what type of pergola would best suit your needs? You have a few options here, each of which is best suited to different tastes and needs.
Flat Roof Pergolas
Providing protection from the elements in all weather, flat roof pergolas are an ideal choice for the Adelaide climate. They're also super stylish and have a modern aesthetic that is perfect for creating a harmonious blend between your indoor and outdoor living space.
Skillion Roof Pergolas
The unique, angular design of a skillion roof pergola makes it possible to use your pergola as an interesting focal point or add architectural flair to your outdoor entertaining area. They're also really practical, as it doesn't only provide excellent shade, but the sloped roof ensures rainwater drains efficiently.
Gable Roof Pergolas
Whether you have a classic building or you simply like the traditional style, gable roof pergolas, with their symmetrical design and triangular peaks, add a certain element of charm to your outdoor space. You're also offered practicality from a gable roof pergola, as the angled roof panels channel rainwater super effectively and provide shade on hot days.
