I’m really impressed that you are a woman and have carpentry skills! It’s great that you featured your Mother especially and your friends! You did a fantastic job and you’ve really inspired me! Thank you for sharing this video and May God Bless you!❤️❤️❤️
Looks amazing, I wish I had a video of carport I built over 10 years ago, all by myself going up and down a ladder so many times and a corded drill. 6 2x2 cemented anchors you could not budge it. LOL the city inspector tried. Nice video.
That cement dust contains nasty chemicals like silica that cause cancer. Also when the dust gets into your lungs and gets damp, it will turn into little concrete chunks. So yes, a mask designed specifically for dust is important protection.
Great upgrade from the shade cloth Nic! Is there any slope on the roof to the back? I don't need a pegola but I do need to add some concrete footings soon so that part was super helpful. Cheers!
Thanks so much Fingers! This doesn't have a slope but it's really simple to add a couple of extra angled timber beams on each side then attach the rafter supports to these instead. Because mine is so small, i decided just to cap the front end with foam infill strips and let the rain drain off the back end into the garden.
Hello, I would highly recommend for you to shop piece by piece for the brackets at Home Depot and if not Amazon has the kit for 200$ on lumber you are looking at 350$ I spent 527$ today on the exact same thing just not the roofing equipment
This is very well done and explained. However at the end I think you rushed through the last details of add the L flashing. So I probably would not be able to get through that without lots of other research. Amazing work.
Yes it sure could. You can make them any size you want. They have additional T connector parts you can buy so you can go longer. I think the max distance between legs they recommend is 3m. So you just add a T connector and extra leg in the middle if you want to go longer or wide than that.
@@deanabossio3091 thank you. It ended up being level so in hindsight I should have added an extra slope to the roof. 5 degrees should do it on a small roof.
@@rvega60s yes you sure can! Just drill them into your deck. You may need to add a thicker perpendicular piece of timber under neath that you also screw into for more strength so that the wind doesn’t rip the whole thing off.
I wonder whether the roof might need to have a slight angle so that the water can flow from the stop edge to the other side into the garden. What is your thought?
Yes, I did consider adding a some angled beams up top which the rafters could sit on, but I was almost finished when I realised this and decided against it. I think it’s definitely a better idea to do that though.
Thank you! Great question so I did plan the back two concrete footings to be slightly lower than the front BUT it turned out completely level anyway. I did wonder half way through if I should have built an extra triangular structure for rafters and roof to sit on but I was already half way through the project and decided not to. The water does flow off the back but some does sit there for a while. I’d recommend adding triangles. What is the terms for those?
Actually I have been thinking of perhaps lifting the two front legs up a little in the metal bracket and screwing them in a bit higher. Might see if that helps. There’s a slight amount of play to lift but with the top angles being 90 degrees, not a huge amount.
When you placed the metal roof I got lost since I didn't see at any time the inclination you had given to the pergola so that the water flows and it didn't start. When I saw your finished work, he didn't notice any fall or inclination on the ceiling
@@eduardomelgar3100 I didn’t add any as it’s such a small roof and I thought it would be fine. But in hindsight, a small inclination would have been better. The sun does dry up any remaining water within a couple of days so it’s not too bad.
I didn’t but in hindsight I should have. I thought about this half way through but decided not to. I’d suggest adding some slanted timber screwed to the inner side of the box structure of the top, then screw the rafter supports into those. That way they’re a bit more hidden and the roof will look like it’s floating which will have a nice effect. With it as it is, most does run off the end but a little sits there until it dries in the sun.
i cant believe you said that. 🤣🤣😅😅😁 anyway ,thats all i think about whenever i hear an aussie accent. some times im confused if its a new zeland accent as they are close.
So the metal roof has ridges along it that stop it going over the sides. I capped one end so the only place for it to run is off the back end and into my garden. Make sense?
I actually for them for free on marketplace, but the cheapest place to buy them is from local roofing manufacturers and you can get them to cut them to size for free usually. Cheaper than hardware stores.
@@vernardking8067 the ridges along the metal? I think it’s called standing seam roofing. There are different metals that this roof sheeting comes in. Steel is the most common type. Aluminium is lightweight and compatible with coastal areas, tin (no longer used as it rusts easily), copper develops a nice patina, and zinc which is more expensive but longer lasting.
@@vernardking8067 or did you mean the foam at the end? That’s called Foam Infill Strips and you need to get the exact type that matches your ridges size and width they are apart. (Mine wasn’t correct but I couldn’t get the right size in time so I made it work.

those type of pergolas are designed for either adjustable slats with in built guttering or what you have done, the open rafters but with no roof. Because the bracket system is strictly 90 deg its impossible to get any type of fall.
Hope you dont live in an area with snow. I did a similar project with Toja Grid and my brackets failed. When I spoke with the company, they said it wasn’t rated for a roof application. Have a structural engineer explain to you what a foot of snow load is and you will realize that thin metal can’t hold it.
My dad was a builder, and snow load was always a consideration. I grew up in Canada, lots of snow. I married an American and made my home in Arizona, then Florida, but Dad always considered snow load anyway, lol.
THE MOULDING CUPPING IS FINE, HOWEVER, THAT LONG STRIP ON THE OTHER SIDE WAS OVERKILL, YOU NEED RAINWATER TO DRAIN FROM BOTH SIDES, IN CLOSING OFF ONE SIDE , YOU PLACED A BARACADE ON THE DRAINING OF THAT WATER, IT'S FLAT HORIZONTAL ROOF, SO THAT'S NOT GOOD
Yes I agree, I had tried to leave the back footings a little lower so that it gave some slope but it ended up being very level. What I should have done is added some angles to each side to sit the rafters and roof on. What I’m going to do is unscrew the timber where the front feet are and lift it as I as I can as there is a little bit of play there. Hopefully that will give enough slope. I think the instructions that came with the kit were designed for a mesh roof which wouldn’t need a slope so I failed to consider that. I do like your thought of not enclosing the front edge though. If I can’t lift the front legs enough, I might have to do that. Thank you!
@@NicoleHerrickDIY I THINK YOU SHOULD LEAVE THE RAFTORS AS THEY ARE, OPEN THE ONE SIDE TO MATCH THE OTHER SIDE THAT'S OPEN AND MAYBE PUT A NICE TRIM ON BOTH SIDES SO THAT IT WILL LOOK MORE COSMETICALLY PLEASING, THEN WAIT TO SEE WHAT THE RAINWATER DOES, IF IT DRAINS FROM BOTH SIDES, YOU'RE GOOD TO GO. HORIZONTAL ROOF LOOKS GOOD BUT THE DRAINING HAS TO BE RIGHT
It’s much cheaper than having a professional build one for you. Take a look at my video on installing a shade sail, that’s a much more affordable option.
This was able to be done without a permit in my local council. I made sure to check it first before planning the build so that it was within the regulations. All councils are different of course.
@@Doorcloserpro go you! That’s awesome. Was that including digging out for footings, cementing footings, cutting timber, staining timber, adding a metal roof as well? You might have to come help me next time haha!
@@NicoleHerrickDIY no metal roof. I could add later on. It’s for a hot tub at my air bnb property. I started at 10 AM to pick up the lumber and some supplies. Guest arrive at 4 PM. Had to do a second run for more supply too. I anchored my post in concrete for ground, . I only use 2 of the metal corner bracket . Once I connected the 2 post together to the metals. I measure and anchor 2 remaining post. I use Simpson tie L , angel bracket , and 2x4 hanger .
@@Doorcloserpro nice work! I’m thinking about buying a hot tub, that means I need another pergola haha! I’ll fly you to Australia and you can come help me ok?
The brackets are the only thing that came in the kit. Everything else I had to plan and purchase separately. It’s the same as buying joints hangers and angle brackets, at the hardware store.

Not "misleading" at all. The title didn't say "build from scratch". All she used were the connectors and bolts, she did all the measuring, cutting, drilling, caulking, staining and created her own cement footings. Even home "builders" use prefab spanners/joists. I loved her video and thought it was a great DIY guide!

Hey there, would you mind sharing total cost of the build including the kit, timber, concrete etc?
Sure thing. I spent approx $1850 all up. $850 for the pergola brackets kit, $1,000 for the timber, roofing, cement and sundries.
