You can generally save more by using plans rather than kits. However when you use plans you still have to buy the materials and tools from the materials list that accompanies the plan. In this case the materials you will buy are not yet fitted so you will have to cut and shape them yourself. But if this is not an issue with you because you are fairly skilled and have the basic tools then using plans would be very cost-efficient. Kits on the other hand cost a lot more than plans. If you have below average skills you might want to spend on a pergola kit. The kits will already come with a detailed how to instruction list basic tools and cut or shaped materials that are supposed to fit perfectly when assembled correctly.
The choice of materials to cover or roof the pergola depends on the buyers instincts as to the choices for durability permanency and availability. In tropical Australia zinc-galvanized corrugated sheets do not reflect infrared or ultraviolet much. White roofs reflect better. White or soft shades are better colors for a cool roof. As the Earth seeks to get greener the best choice of course is to enjoy traditional open roofed pergolas. Painting your Pergola Anything that is exposed to the harsh elements of nature will eventually need protection. Painting is one of the best ways to provide this protection.
Glass panels although strong enough to serve as pergola covering dont work for all kinds of environments making them vulnerable to hailstorms. So it is always advisable to check your location before transforming your pergola with transparent insulations. Other types of roofing materials used in pergolas include metal pergola roofing materials which is considered the most durable and permanent roofing material and fabric deck pergola covers which helps in extending your outdoor furnitures life. While fabric deck coverings extend furnitures life it also reduces or protects you from direct ultraviolet rays.
