Steps
Step 1
When I built the deck i installed solid timber under the kwila so that each of the 4 posts for the pergola had a solid footing.
Step 2
Erected for posts and joining beams. Ensured that posts were square.
Step 3
Installed centre and side beams.
Step 4
Secured posts to deck and specific points where the fortified deck beams were. Posts are screwed into these beams to form a solid footing.
Step 5
Installed louvers on roof.
Step 6
Sealed all joints for extra protection from the elements with weather tight silicone sealant.
