At Utah Pergola Company, we take pride in transforming outdoor spaces with our high-quality, custom-built shade structures, including our standout offering: residential pavilion installation. Specializing exclusively in wood and timber frame materials like Douglas Fir, Redwood, and Red Cedar, we craft pavilions that blend durability with timeless beauty. Whether you’re envisioning a cozy backyard retreat or an elegant gathering space, our expert team is here to bring your vision to life.
What is a Residential Pavilion?
A residential pavilion is an open-air structure designed to provide shade, shelter, and a defined space for outdoor living. Unlike fully enclosed buildings, pavilions feature a roof supported by sturdy posts, offering a perfect balance of protection and openness. At Utah Pergola Company, we construct our pavilions using premium wood materials, ensuring they enhance your property’s aesthetic while standing up to the elements.
Benefits of Installing a Residential Pavilion
Adding a pavilion to your home comes with a host of advantages. Here’s why homeowners across Utah are choosing our custom timber frame pavilions:
- Enhanced Outdoor Living: Create a dedicated space for relaxation, dining, or entertaining guests.
- Natural Beauty: Our use of Douglas Fir, Redwood, and Red Cedar adds warmth and elegance to any backyard.
- Durability: Timber frame construction ensures longevity, even in Utah’s varied climate.
- Versatility: Customize your pavilion for lounging, outdoor kitchens, or even a hot tub enclosure.
- Increased Property Value: A well-crafted pavilion can boost your home’s appeal and marketability.
Our pavilions are more than just structures—they’re an investment in your lifestyle and property.
Why Choose Wood for Your Pavilion?
We believe wood is the superior choice for residential pavilions, and our commitment to using Douglas Fir, Redwood, and Red Cedar sets us apart. Each timber type offers unique benefits:
| Wood Type | Key Features |
|---|---|
| Douglas Fir | Strong, versatile, with a rich grain perfect for staining. |
| Redwood | Naturally resistant to rot and insects, ideal for longevity. |
| Red Cedar | Lightweight, aromatic, and naturally weather-resistant. |

Residential Pavilions vs. Pergolas and Gazebos
While we specialize in various shade structures, it’s worth understanding how pavilions differ from pergolas and gazebos. Here’s a quick comparison:
| Structure | Characteristics |
|---|---|
| Pavilion | Larger, solid roof, ideal for all-weather use. |
| Pergola | Open lattice roof, provides partial shade. |
| Gazebo | Smaller, often octagonal, fully enclosed roof. |
Looking for a DIY option? We also offer pergola kits and gazebo kits alongside our pavilion kits.
Where to Install Your Residential Pavilion
Placement is key to maximizing your pavilion’s potential. Popular locations include:
- Backyard: Near your home for easy access or as a standalone centerpiece.
- Poolside: Provide shade and a lounging area for swimmers.
- Garden: Enhance your landscaping with a functional focal point.
- Patio Extension: Expand your existing outdoor space seamlessly.
No matter the spot, our team ensures your pavilion integrates perfectly with your property.
