    Hi Karl

    These are the sizes /types / prices of everything I have been selling;

    http://www.garden-design-pictures.com/traditional-pergolas.html

    http://www.garden-design-pictures.com/lean-to-pergolas.html

    http://www.garden-design-pictures.com/triangular-pergolas.html

    http://www.garden-design-pictures.com/bow-top-pergolas.html

    http://www.garden-design-pictures.com/single-divider-pergolas.html

    Althoough some of those I can buy from a large supplier in the UK they take too long to produce a bespoke service. 80% of the pergolas I sell are bespoke all be it a small variation of one of the above.

    Thanks

    Hi Karl

    It’s a great idea, but don’t judge the interest by the relatively small amount of installers that will comment on your post!

    “Build it, and they will come!”

    The industry desperately needs it as it has a greater opportunity for ‘cowboys’ than ‘double glazing’. With the latter you must have at the very least watched someone else have a go, but anyone can pick up a saw, hammer and a piece of decking. That doesn’t mean to say that decking is easy, but it does show that the industry is more likely to have a higher number of ‘cowboys’ than the ‘replacement window’ industry – because they do have minimum standards to meet via training or APL.

    For me personally, I would be interested in the design side but the ‘old back’ couldn’t do anymore fixing.

    Go for it! You have my full support for what it is worth.

    Regards

    Sounds like a plan. I’ll give it some serious thought. I’d be interested in seeing your spreadsheet. Thanks.

    Thanks guys, I already use Sketchup – love it. Unfortunately, it doesn’t give you a cutting list and and a costing.

    If the right software doesn’t exist, maybe I’ll build the software. :). Thanks for replying.
