Best materials for a durable pergola? 🌿

[Trax]

Hi everyone! I'm planning to build a pergola in my backyard and I'm curious about the best materials to use. Wood, vinyl, or metal? Any suggestions or experiences to share?

Great question! 🌞 For a durable pergola, I’d recommend using cedar or redwood—they're naturally resistant to rot and pests! If you want something super sturdy, aluminum or vinyl can also be great choices for low maintenance.

If you want low maintenance, go with vinyl; if you're into classic vibes and don’t mind some upkeep, wood's the way; for a modern look that'll outlast your garden gnomes, metal's unbeatable!
