Pergolas, pavilions, and patio covers in Pinellas County

Sunologi Inc. is a licensed Florida building contractor (CBC1261200) building pergolas, pavilions, and patio covers across Pinellas County, including St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Largo. Shade structures in Florida are engineered structures: footings sized for the soil, framing rated for wind, and a permit pulled with the Pinellas County building department. We are a pergola builder that treats it that way, and crews dispatch from our New Port Richey west coast hub.

Pergola and patio cover options for Pinellas homes

Open pergolas in wood or low maintenance aluminum, solid roof pavilions that keep the rain off, and patio covers attached to the house that turn a slab into an outdoor room. We match the structure to how you will actually use the space: filtered light over a seating area, full shade over an outdoor kitchen, or a roof that lets the space work in a summer downpour. Fans, lighting, and power are designed in from the start, not bolted on later.

Wind engineering and Pinellas County permits

Anything roofed or attached to the house in Florida is engineered for wind, and freestanding pergolas need proper footings to stay standing through storm season. Every pergola installation we do is designed to the wind requirements at your Pinellas address and permitted with the Pinellas County building department under license CBC1261200, with inspections handled by us. If your neighborhood has an HOA, we produce the drawings their review board asks for.

Shade structures we build in Pinellas

Dense, older, and full of character, Pinellas homes in St. Petersburg and Clearwater are prime candidates for full remodels and thoughtful additions on tight lots. The steady requests are a pergola over a paver patio, a pavilion beside the pool, and patio covers that extend the living room outdoors. Each is quoted from a site visit with a written line item scope, never from a satellite photo. Request your free Pinellas estimate and we will design a structure that fits the house instead of fighting it.

Pergolas and Pavilions in Pinellas: common questions

Do pergolas need a permit in Pinellas County?

Generally yes. Attached structures and roofed pavilions always do, and most freestanding pergolas of any real size do as well. We confirm the requirement for your exact project and pull the permit with the Pinellas County building department under license CBC1261200.

Wood or aluminum pergola in Pinellas?

Wood looks warmer and takes stain; aluminum shrugs off Florida sun and rain with almost no upkeep. Both are built on engineered footings either way. We walk you through the tradeoffs at the site visit so the choice fits your maintenance appetite, not our inventory.
