Custom pergolas designed and built for Dubai gardens

In most Dubai communities, yes. Master developers usually require a no-objection certificate for outdoor structures and may set rules on height, colour and distance from boundaries. Requirements differ between communities, so check with your community management first. Our pergola approval guide for Dubai communities explains what they usually look at. We provide the drawings and details they normally ask for.

Powder-coated aluminium is usually the lowest maintenance choice. It does not rot or rust and keeps its finish well. Timber can last if it is oiled or sealed regularly. Steel is strong but needs a good coating, especially near the sea. We explain the trade-offs for your site.

Adjustable louvres let you open the roof for winter sun and close it for summer shade or rain. They suit people who use the space all year. They cost more than fixed slats and need occasional cleaning of sand from the channels. If you only want summer shade, fixed slats may be enough.

Often, yes, but it depends on the wall and the community rules. We check the wall build-up and avoid drilling through waterproofing or into hidden services. A freestanding design is used where wall fixing is not suitable or not permitted.

Rinse it down every few weeks to remove dust, more often after a sandstorm. Clear louvre channels and gutters before any expected rain. Check fixings once or twice a year. Avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners that can damage the powder coat, and touch up any chips early so corrosion does not spread.
