The Garbrella Quality Difference

While it is great that the one-of-a-kind pergola style is getting noticed, there is a downside as well. Unfortunately, since more and more homeowners want pergolas, there are more and more companies making them — and they aren’t all up to the same quality standard.

In many cases, the pergolas you’ll see in big box retail chains and hardware stores aren’t well-built, durable, or maintenance-free. That can lead to the pergola falling apart in high winds or simply rotting and failing apart. However, a weatherproof pergola from Garbrella will never need maintenance other than washing and will last a lifetime in the elements.

The difference comes down to the materials and the quality of the craftsmanship. At Garbrella, our pergola kits are built one-at-a-time by Amish craftsmen in the USA from high-quality vinyl. However, cheaper pergolas are often built overseas in huge factories hundreds at a time.
