Pergola Styles

Attached Pergola

An attached pergola connects directly to your home's exterior wall, creating a sheltered transition between indoors and the outdoor living area. It adds shade and architectural presence directly off the back of your home.

Freestanding Pergola

A freestanding pergola stands independently from the home, giving you full flexibility over placement anywhere on your property. It is ideal for defining a specific outdoor zone without being tied to the home's structure.

Gable Pergola

A gable pergola features a pitched roofline that adds architectural height and visual distinction to any outdoor living area. The angled roof design sheds rain more effectively and gives the pergola a more permanent appearance.

Classic Pergolas

Classic pergolas feature an open lattice overhead structure that filters sunlight and defines the outdoor space without fully blocking the sky. They suit a wide range of architectural styles and outdoor living layouts.

Louvered Pergolas

We install both fixed louvered pergolas and manual louvered pergolas that give you control over light and airflow. Fixed louvered pergolas provide a set angle of shade while manual louvered pergolas allow hand adjustment for full flexibility.

Custom Pergola

A fully custom pergola is designed from the ground up to match your property dimensions, architectural style, and outdoor living goals. Every structural and finish detail is tailored so the finished structure feels purpose-built for your space.

We were 100% pleased with the results of our Top South deck. Both management and workers were a pleasure to work with. Communications were great - always able to talk directly to decision-makers and receive online updates of the work progress. A professional outfit.

We recently replaced our pressure treated wood deck and hired Top South Decks & Porches to built the frame in Feb. As we handled permit, demolish, and decking/guardrail ourselves, the review is about deck frame and customer service only. It is an overall very pleasant experience with Federico and his crew. Pros: Federico is very knowledgeable about his work. He replied most of my email/text within 24 hours, answered all my questions, and communicated everything clearly. His quote is competitive and outlined all the works to be done. His crew is very efficient and had the work done quickly. He also stopped by multiple times to address our concerns in a timely manner. He stood behind his word and replaced a splitting post after the job is completed. Cons: Because the crew got things done fairly quick, they did not pay much attention to material selection. We saw the scrapped cut post is of better quality than the piece used. I also found a few nails near the worksite after the crew left. Again, Top South Decks & Porches got the job done as expected and honored the warranty. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a decent deck builder.

INCREDIBLE experience with Federico & team over at Top South! We had an old sinking sunroom from the 80s, and they completely transformed it! Federico was a great communicator along the way and was the best problem solver when it came to our older home. They provided us with detailed renderings and provided plenty of material options/recommendations. The best part is he is a licensed and professional contractor, so you know everything is being done right with integrity. They made the permitting process so easy. When getting a job like this done, you have to trust your team and we definitely did! THANK YOU again!!

We had an excellent experience with Top South D&P. They redid our master bathroom shower, transformed a half bath into a full bath, and painted our entire house. The quality of their work is outstanding. They are incredibly thorough, keep everything clean and well-contained, and are some of the hardest workers we’ve ever worked with. Federico and his crew are extremely responsive and truly take pride in what they do. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Top South D&P to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality construction work.
