Pergolas with a roof

There are two ways to get a pergola with a roof. Louvers close for rain and open again for sun, and they’re what most pergola kits with a roof use. A fixed hardtop of steel or polycarbonate is always covered and usually cheaper, but most are sold as hardtop gazebos rather than pergolas. Choose louvers if you want the sun back on nice days, and a hardtop if you just want shelter.

At 10×12, a typical manual louvered kit costs about $1,800, and a hardtop gazebo $930 to $1,500. The few kits sold as hardtop pergolas cost far more: Pergola Depot’s Big Kahuna starts around $6,800.
