Why Add a Pergola?
A pergola does more than define space—it enhances it. Whether you use it to create a cozy sitting area, frame your garden, or add partial shade to your deck or patio, a pergola becomes a focal point that adds charm, structure, and value to your home.
Benefits of a Custom Pergola:
Creates shade and comfort without completely blocking the sun
Visually defines outdoor areas, adding structure to open spaces
- Enhances home value with timeless curb appeal
- Supports climbing plants like wisteria or ivy for a natural, living canopy
- Provides a base for lighting, fans, or shade covers
- Extends your outdoor living season and invites daily use
A thoughtfully designed pergola can make even the simplest backyard feel like a well-planned outdoor room.
Our Pergola Services
We build pergolas that are just as unique as the homes they complement. Whether you want something simple or something statement-making, we’ll work with you to design the right structure for your space, your needs, and your style.
Our Custom Pergola Options Include:
Freestanding Pergolas
Ideal for open areas like gardens, lawns, or poolside spaces. Freestanding pergolas offer flexible placement and a commanding visual presence wherever you want to make an impact.
Attached Pergolas
Great for patios or decks, these pergolas connect directly to your home or another structure, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces while providing added shade and architectural flow.
Custom Sizes & Layouts
From small corner shade structures to expansive entertaining zones, we design each pergola to suit your space’s dimensions and usage needs.
Wood & Material Choices
Choose from a range of materials like pressure-treated lumber, cedar, redwood, or composite alternatives for low-maintenance living. We’ll help you select the right material based on your climate, aesthetic preferences, and long-term goals.
Integrated Lighting & Add-ons
Want to enjoy your pergola at night? We can incorporate ambient or task lighting, ceiling fan mounts, retractable canopies, or privacy screens to make the space as usable and comfortable as possible.
Climbing Plant Support
For the nature lovers—your pergola can be designed to support vines and flowering plants, adding texture, shade, and seasonal beauty year after year.
Shade Solutions
Add overhead slats, retractable fabric panels, or weatherproof shade covers for extra comfort during Colorado’s sunniest days.
Designed Just for You
We don’t build out of a catalog—and we don’t believe in “close enough.” Every pergola project is fully custom, designed to complement your home’s architecture, match your personal style, and support the way you live outdoors.
Tell us what you want—and we’ll bring it to life:
- A romantic vine-covered arbor for a garden escape
- A modern, minimalist shade structure for your patio
- A rustic timber-frame pergola to match your mountain-style home
- A spacious pergola with built-in lighting for entertaining late into the evening
- Or something in between—blending elements to create a space that’s uniquely yours
From sketch to structure, we walk you through design decisions, material selections, and functional add-ons that suit your space and vision.
Built for Colorado
Let’s be honest—Colorado’s weather can be unpredictable. From intense sun and dry heat to snow, hail, and sudden wind, your outdoor structures need to be more than just beautiful—they need to be tough.
At MnM’s, we use premium, weather-resistant materials and proven construction techniques to ensure your pergola stands strong through the seasons. Whether you’re in Broomfield, Fort Collins, Aurora, or the Denver foothills, your pergola will be built with durability and safety in mind.
