The Planed Larch Lean-To Gazebo with Treated Featheredge Roof is a strong, space-efficient outdoor structure designed to create reliable shelter while making the most of wall-adjacent areas. Crafted from smooth planed larch and built with heavy-duty components, this lean-to gazebo combines durability, practicality, and clean design—ideal for patios, garden walls, or house extensions.
Treated Featheredge Roof
The pressure-treated featheredge roof provides effective weather protection through overlapping boards that encourage efficient water runoff. This roofing style delivers a traditional, robust finish while enhancing durability, making it well suited to year-round outdoor use. When paired with an optional waterproof membrane, it offers dependable shelter for seating, storage, or outdoor living areas.
Lean-To Design for Smart Use of Space
Designed to fix neatly against an existing wall, the lean-to structure maximises usable space without encroaching too far into the garden. The roof overhang at the front and sides increases coverage beneath the gazebo, offering improved protection from rain and sun—perfect for creating a sheltered seating area, walkway, or practical outdoor zone.

FAQs
What is a lean-to gazebo?
A lean-to gazebo is a structure designed to be installed against an existing wall, using the building for support on one side. This makes it ideal for creating sheltered outdoor space while maximising available garden or patio area.
How does a lean-to differ from a standard pergola?
A lean-to is wall-mounted and supported by posts at the front, whereas a standard pergola is usually freestanding and supported by posts on all sides. Lean-to designs are especially useful where space efficiency is important.
Is the treated featheredge lean-to weather resistant?
Yes. The treated featheredge roof provides effective protection from the elements. When combined with an optional waterproof membrane and regular maintenance, the structure is suitable for year-round outdoor use.
Can this lean-to gazebo be made to custom sizes?
Yes. Alongside the standard size range, bespoke options are available to ensure the lean-to fits your wall length and outdoor layout perfectly.
Do lean-to gazebos usually require planning permission?
In many cases, lean-to gazebos fall under permitted development. However, planning rules can vary depending on size, placement, and local regulations, so it’s always best to check with your local authority.
Installation
Is the lean-to supplied fully assembled?
No. The lean-to gazebo is supplied in kit form for easier delivery and handling. Detailed written instructions are included to guide you through the assembly process.
Are all fixings included with the lean-to gazebo?
Yes. All fixings required for standard installation are included with your order.
Can this lean-to be installed as a freestanding structure?
No. For safety and long-term stability, the lean-to must be securely fixed into the ground and attached to a solid wall using one of the recommended fixing options.
Aftercare & Maintenance
Can the lean-to gazebo be painted or stained?
Yes. Once the timber has fully dried, water-based paints or stains can be applied. Using a UV-protective finish is recommended to help preserve colour and appearance.
What maintenance does the lean-to gazebo require?
Basic maintenance every 6–12 months is recommended. This includes checking fixings, cleaning the structure, and reapplying timber treatments as needed to protect against the elements.
