FAQs

What are Katepal red shingles made from?
Katepal shingles are manufactured using SBS-modified bitumen, which improves flexibility, tear resistance, and durability. This makes them highly effective in changing weather conditions.

Can this pergola be built to custom dimensions?
Yes. While a wide range of standard sizes is available, bespoke pergolas can be made to suit specific layouts or design requirements.

Does the Katepal shingle roof provide reliable weather protection?
Yes. When installed correctly and paired with an optional waterproof membrane, the roof provides dependable protection from rain and everyday outdoor exposure.

What does a “no overhang” pergola design mean?
A no overhang design means the roof finishes flush with the main frame rather than extending beyond it. This creates a cleaner, more compact appearance and maximises symmetry.

How does an apex pergola differ from a 4 pitch pergola?
An apex pergola has two roof slopes that meet along a central ridge, creating an open, linear look. A 4 pitch pergola slopes on all sides and meets at a single point, offering greater enclosure and symmetry.

Is planning permission usually required for this pergola?
Most pergolas fall under permitted development rules. However, regulations can vary depending on size, location, and property type, so checking with your local authority is always advised.

Is this pergola suitable for seating or dining areas?
Yes. The apex roof and sheltered design make it ideal for creating a comfortable outdoor lounge or dining space.

Installation

Does the pergola arrive fully assembled?
No. The pergola is supplied in kit form for safe transport and easier handling. A full installation guide is provided to support both DIY and professional installation.

Are fixings included with the pergola kit?
Yes. All fixings required for standard installation are included with your order.

Can this pergola be installed as a freestanding structure?
No. For safety and long-term stability, the pergola must be securely fixed into the ground using one of the recommended fixing options.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Can the cedar frame be painted or stained?
Yes. Once the timber has fully dried, water-based paints or stains can be applied. A UV-protective treatment is recommended to help maintain colour and finish.

How often should the pergola be maintained?
Routine maintenance every 6–12 months is recommended. This includes checking fixings, cleaning surfaces, and reapplying protective treatments if required.

How long is this pergola designed to last?
With correct installation and ongoing maintenance, the pergola is designed to deliver reliable performance for 10–20 years or more.
