Pergola Craftsmanship

No One Does This

Lincoln Log Notching

Every intersecting beam is hand-notched — joists slide 2.33" into the solid header beam. No toe nailing. Maximum strength, seamless appearance.

No One Does This

No Exposed Hardware

Zero visible metal plates, bolts, nuts, or screws — on any joint. The natural beauty of the wood is all you see.

No One Does This

2×4 Top Shade Layer

We always use 2×4s for the top shade layer — not the 2×2s others use, which warp and twist within a year.

No One Does This

Solid 4×12 Header Beams

Solid 4×12 header beams — not built-up lumber. Structurally superior and required for our signature notch technique.

No One Does This

Hidden Electrical Routing

Electrical lines and boxes are routed into the wood and trimmed like a picture frame. No exposed conduit, no ugly junction boxes.

No One Does This

Silicone Caulked Seams

All seams are sealed with silicone caulk for seamless, clean joints — keeping moisture out and extending the life of your structure.

Hand-Picked Timber

Jack selects every board personally, sourced directly from the mill — only the highest quality timbers make the cut.

Ready Seal Stain

Rolled on with a ¾" nap roller before assembly — not sprayed after — for deeper penetration and significantly longer protection.

Roof Attachment

We attach directly to your roofline — no extra posts needed at the gutter. More open patio space and unobstructed sight lines.
