Melrose District Pergola Installation
Pergolas planned for Melrose District homes and the way their backyards get sun.
The Melrose District runs along 7th Avenue between Indian School Road and Camelback Road, with homes built mostly from 1929 to 1949.
Lots here are compact, so a pergola has to earn its space. Cedar frames with string lights, slim aluminum frames and attached pergolas off a back door are common requests.
The City of Phoenix's residential patio cover guideline covers one-story structures up to 12 feet tall, open on two or more sides and attached to the house, and it requires construction drawings and a permit. The City's list of work exempt from permit includes one-story detached accessory structures up to 200 square feet of total floor area, and it names ramadas and gazebos as similar uses. Neither document names pergolas, so we confirm with the City of Phoenix whether your pergola needs a permit before we build.
Warm wood that suits 1930s and 1940s homes.
Evening light for small patios.
Shade without losing yard space.
Part of the area was designated a historic district in 2011. If your home sits in a City of Phoenix historic district, we check whether exterior work needs historic preservation review before we finalize the design.
We measure your patio and setbacks, then size the pergola so it shades the seating without crowding the yard.
