A good pergola starts with solid footings because Attleboro winters pack heavy snow and freezing temperatures. Charis Decks digs concrete piers deep into the ground so your posts do not shift when the spring thaw turns the soil to mud. From there, we frame up the heavy support posts and notched header beams, making sure everything is square and level before we attach the shade rafters for your Pergola Construction project.

Bristol County weather swings from freezing sub-zero winter nights to humid, high-sun summers.
