What a pergola costs in Austin
The ranges JB is quoting right now, installed. The jump from an open-top structure to a solid roof is the biggest single step in the price list.
| Structure | Typical 12x12 | Typical 14x16 to 16x20 |
|---|---|---|
| Freestanding open-top cedar | $8,500 to $13,000 | $13,500 to $22,000 |
| Attached open-top pergola | $10,500 to $16,000 | $16,500 to $26,000 |
A tongue-and-groove ceiling, recessed lighting, fans or a stained finish each add cost.
