After deciding that they want to build a pergola in their backyard, many homeowners often find themselves on a fence in terms of what material would be best for the pergola. There are so many options to choose from, which further adds to their indecisiveness and confusion.
When building a creative pergola in your backyard with lanterns, curtains and fairy lights, you want to make sure that you choose the right material for it. This will help ensure quality, durability and longevity.
Another important factor is that the material you choose for your pergola should complement the overall theme and look of your house and backyard.
If you are also looking to build one in your backyard, take a look at some of the best materials for a pergola that look absolutely stunning and have great aesthetic value.

Alumawood

As the name suggests, this material is mainly aluminum, which has been manufactured in a way that it ends up resembling cedarwood.

The best feature of alumawood is that it offers a very unique and real wooden texture with a really beautiful, stand-out finish. This material is also super easy to maintain, doesn’t require any painting, is highly resistant to cracks and warping and lastly, it has a spectacular visual appeal.

Alumawood pergolas are also known to be the most long-lasting and diverse among all other materials and offer a highly effective solution for upgrading your outdoor living space.

Wood

Anything made of pure wood looks absolutely stunning, be it a wooden chair, dining table or simply a storage box. Wooden pergolas look even more appealing, especially when they stand in your backyard, perfectly complementing the surrounding greenery and the raw landscape.
When choosing materials for a pergola, many people prefer something raw and natural. If you are in the same boat, wooden pergolas are perfect for you.

Two of the most popular types of wood used for backyard pergolas include yellow pine and red cedar. Yellow pine wood is known for its timeless, classic look, ability to withstand severe weather and an increased resistance towards insects and rotting. Red cedar, on the other hand, is popular for its unique rustic look, absorbing qualities and an appealing kind of a wooden smell.

Vinyl

If you don’t particularly feel tempted towards wood or alumawood, vinyl pergolas are another excellent option for you. They are also great for you if you are on a budget.

Some key benefits of vinyl material are that it is quite less expensive than the other two, extremely lightweight, has a very sharp visual appeal, has many color options and requires very little maintenance.

The best part about vinyl pergolas is that you get to choose from a variety of styles, designs and colors in order to match the overall look of your backyard.

Summary

If you really want your backyard pergola to stand out and offer a great aesthetical value, make sure to choose the right kind of material for it. It is best to seek assistance from a talented pergola company that will not only guide you on the best materials for a pergola but will also build one for you in your backyard.
