Custom Pergolas

Not every backyard fits a standard size — and that’s where custom builds shine. We design pergolas to fit oversized decks, long patio runs, poolside spaces, and outdoor kitchens. If it’s part of your outdoor plan, we can build around it

Built Strong. Built Once

We don’t install flimsy pergola kits. Every pergola from Cactus Contracting is:

  • Built indoors for better quality control
  • Constructed with 6×6 posts and oversized beams
  • Installed with code-approved structural hardware
  • Designed for local weather conditions
  • Meant to be a permanent, long-lasting structure

Choose from cedar for a warm, natural look or pressure-treated lumber for durability and value

What’s Included

  • Clean, timeless design
  • Decorative rafter tails
  • Optional shade slats
  • Deck-mounted or concrete footing installation
  • Pre-finished options available

Because your pergola is built ahead of time, installation is faster and your yard stays cleaner.

Optional Upgrades & Add-Ons
