Pergolas are a great way to convert an outdoor barren space into a perfect living area.

Pergolas are structures that block the harsh UAE sun and provide shade during the day, thus increasing the amount of time which you can spend outside.Generally, timber pergolas were once the most popular pergola option across the UAE but that has changed in recent years.

Due to the harsh Dubai weather, timber or wood pergolas are prone to warp and cracking and have now been replaced by WPC or wood plastic composite that offer enhanced durability and appearance like that of timber.

The wood plastic composite material is now a perfect alternative to be used in place of timber.

The conventional timber is prone to warping, fading, and staining but the composite material is maintenancefree and a great choice for making pergolas, deck panels and fences.When considering your preferred pergola design, composite materials can still be assembled in the same style of traditional timber pergolas.

It has the added bonus of assisting to keep our villa cool.Some communities in Dubai are now allowing temporary structures to be erected on our villa balconies.
