FAQs
What is a lean-to gazebo?
A lean-to gazebo is a structure that fixes directly to an existing wall, using the building for support on one side and posts at the front. It’s ideal for patios and areas where space needs to be used efficiently.
What’s the difference between a pergola and a lean-to?
A lean-to is attached to a wall, while a pergola is usually free-standing and supported by four posts within the garden.
Is the red Katepal shingle lean-to weather resistant?
Yes. When installed with a suitable waterproof membrane and maintained regularly with a quality wood treatment such as Osmo Oil, the lean-to provides reliable protection from the elements.
What are these red Katepal shingles made from?
Katepal shingles are made from SBS-modified bitumen, giving them excellent flexibility, durability, and resistance to tearing in changing weather conditions.
Are the timber components pressure treated?
Yes. All structural timber components are pressure treated to protect against rot, moisture, and insect damage. Roofing components may vary depending on the configuration selected.
Do I need planning permission for a lean-to gazebo?
In many cases, a lean-to gazebo can be installed under permitted development rules. Planning requirements can vary, so it’s always best to check with your local authority.
Installation
Does the lean-to arrive fully assembled?
No. The lean-to is supplied in kit form for easier delivery and handling. Clear installation instructions are included to guide both DIY installers and professional fitters.
Are fixings included with the lean-to?
Yes. All fixings required for installation are included with your order.
Aftercare & Maintenance
Can I paint the lean-to gazebo?
Yes. Once the timber is fully dry, you can apply a water-based paint or finish. Using a UV-protective treatment beforehand is recommended to help preserve the timber’s appearance.
What maintenance is recommended?
To maintain performance and appearance, we recommend treating the timber every six months with a suitable wood oil and periodically removing any built-up dirt or debris.
How long will the lean-to gazebo last?
With correct installation and regular maintenance, a pressure-treated lean-to gazebo can typically last between 10 and 20 years, depending on exposure and care.

Help with my new garage roof!
Trade Warehouse could not have been more helpful. They very patiently guided a roofing newbie through all of the stuff I would need to do the job and provided helpful tips along the way. It's rare to find a company offering such a fantastic level of customer service as standard. I would highly recommend them and will certainly use them again.

Garden Storage
My contractor (Charlie Keep) recommended you to me so I could order the materials online for delivery direct to my home. These were for a project to construct a Garden Storage Area. The materials were perfect and the whole process was simple and slick with materials delivered on time and very well packaged. Charlie has since completed the project & I am very happy with the outcome.
