Pergolas & Gazebos in Bloomington Normal, IL
A pergola or gazebo turns an open yard into a place people actually use. It gives you shade over a patio, a defined spot for a table and chairs, and a structure that makes the whole backyard feel finished. Scott's Exterior Maintenance has been building outdoor structures for Central Illinois homeowners since 2005, and we handle the work from the first sketch through the final board.
What We Build
- Pergolas over patios and seating areas.
- Freestanding pergolas anywhere in the yard.
- Gazebos as a standalone destination in the landscape.
- Structures sized around an existing patio, deck, or paver area.
- Kit pergolas and gazebos, sourced and assembled.
Custom Wood Structures
Every yard is different, and so is every budget. We build pergolas and gazebos to fit your needs. If you want something built specifically for your space, we design and build it from the ground up. We look at your yard, your patio, the size of the area you want covered, and the style of your home, then design a structure that fits. Because it is designed for your property, you decide the build.
Custom wood construction gives you full control over the look. It also lets us work around the things that make your yard yours, whether that is an existing patio edge, a slope, or a particular sight line you want to keep open.
Kit Assembly
If you have found a pergola or gazebo kit you like, or you want a straightforward structure without a custom design process, we can source the kit and build it for you. Kits come with the pieces cut and ready, which usually means a faster build and a lower cost than a fully custom structure.
Kit assembly is not just unpacking a box. The structure still needs to sit level, anchor properly, and line up with your patio or yard. We handle the site prep, the anchoring, and the assembly so the finished structure is solid and square.
How the Process Works:
1. We come out and look
We visit the property, talk through what you want the space to do, and take measurements. This is a free estimate, and there is no pressure to decide anything on the spot.
2. We design or we source
For a custom build, we work out a design that fits your yard and your budget. For a kit, we help you choose one and handle the ordering.
3. We build it
Our crew handles the site prep, the footings, and the construction. We keep the site clean and we work until the structure is done right.
