The Pros and Cons of a Pergola in Wilmington, Delaware

The great con of a patio cover is that you can't take it with you if you move. The cost of a pergola installation increases the value of a home and elevates your lifestyle while you live there. You might also have invested in walkways and outdoor kitchens in addition to your pergola.

However, if you move, the cost of your pergola installation is now a sunk cost. The ultimate pro of a patio cover is that you can now experience the height of outdoor living in Delaware. Your backyard will evolve from just another green space to a curated corner of the world designed for your comfort.

Pergolas & Patio Cover Services FAQs

What's the Difference Between a Pergola and a Patio Cover?

We're often asked what a patio cover is called, and it's just a pergola! The difference between a pergola and a patio cover is that a pergola is the official name, and a patio cover is the casual name. We often refer to pergolas as patio covers but are happy to switch to using pergolas. It's your prerogative! 

What Types of Patio Covers Are Available in Wilmington, Delaware?

Patio covers, with their breezy, slotted tops, are all about adding a touch of style to your outdoor space, letting just the right amount of sunlight dance through. Patio covers come in all sorts of designs to match exactly your desired style. The various styles include automated patio covers that retract at the push of a button and non-retractable covers that also protect against the elements.  If you want it, First Class Lawncare LLC can build it. 

 

How Much Value Does a Patio Add to a House?
Adding a patio cover to your home can significantly enhance its appeal and usability, potentially increasing your home's value. While the exact impact on property value varies by market and the patio's quality, a well-designed outdoor space is always an investment. This addition not only improves your home's aesthetic and functional aspects but also appeals to potential buyers looking for outdoor living spaces in Delaware. 
Is It Better to Attach a Pergola to a House?

Attaching a patio cover (pergola) to your house can offer several benefits, including enhanced architectural cohesion and convenience. This method allows for a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, improving the overall aesthetic appeal of your home. Additionally, an attached pergola might require fewer supports, which can reduce costs and complexity in construction. It is important to remember that patio covers will have natural weather over time, and the patio cover attached to the house will share any snow load on the roof.

“We have loved First Class for their lawn care and landscaping but now they have gone up and beyond with our patio design and installation. Jake has an amazing eye for design! We couldn't be happier with our amazing patio, outdoor island with grill, gardening bed, and gazebo. We plan to do more work with them in the future!”

“Hiring First Class Lawncare after speaking with Jim was a no brainer. After 3 years of living in our home, and neglecting our flowerbeds, we knew the job was beyond our skill set and we needed a professional. First class was that, Professional! Juan and his team worked tirelessly throughout the day and even stayed late into the evening to make sure the job was complete. To say they went above and beyond and transformed my yard is an understatement! First class will be my first and only call for all of my future landscaping needs. Thank you!!!”

“I recently worked with First Class Lawncare and was 100% satisfied! First Class installed patio string lights and lighting around my shed. Jake was so responsive throughout the entire process. The finished project is absolutely beautiful, and now my family and I are able to enjoy our backyard. I have now asked Jake to send additional ideas for enhancing the area around our fire pit. I can't wait to see what he comes up with!”

Janissa N.

“I worked with Jake on replacing a slate walkway with a bluestone walkway. He was a very good listener, creative, and responsive. He visited the site each day and made sure things were going well. The crew was very hard-working and respectful. Jake would not let the project end until both of us were satisfied with the end result. He went the extra mile on a few occasions and explained that this is how this company works. I would use them again and recommend them.”

Jennifer I.

“We are thrilled with how First Class Lawncare transformed our outdoor space. Our new deck and patio are not only beautiful, but finally functional—we actually want to have people over now! The rock fountain is the standout feature and truly makes our backyard feel like a resort. Zach and his crew were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Communication was excellent, the workmanship was top-notch, and they completed what was a massive job quickly without sacrificing quality or attention to detail. Zach guided us through every step, including helping us choose the right materials, and everything came together beautifully. Highly recommend!”
