  • This video is just our attempt at an easy modern pergola diy. Hope you find it helpful. When researching how to build a pergola in the UK, a lean-to attached pergola in particular, I used the website that I've linked below. I've also linked the tools that we used. Hope you find it helpful! Check out my Instagram for further details - @_homeofshade

    Great job looks good, just a wee tip when fixing the timber to masonry walls it’s a good idea to put a DPM (plastic barrier) on the wood face that’s against the wall to stop any moisture getting into the wood causing it to rot quicker

      Hi Jack, I wonder if you might be so kind to give even more advice on this. For me, the house is dashed. Will this be a problem? I don't want water seeping down the wall and/or staining? Would there be any kind of soft foam type stuff I could put between the wood and the dashed wall that would fill all the little gaps between the dash stones etc?

      @@pigmintfilm256 I would use flashing between the wood and dashing, thick enough to mould to the dashing, hope that helps.

      You can also put washers between the wood and wall so the wood stands off the wall a few mm to allow any rain moisture to run down the back.

    Tip for fixing timber battens (or posts) to a wall. Fix at one end then level across and fix at the other end, then drill and screw all the way along. Saves trying to keep level while trying to mark multiple holes. 👍

    Great video shade. Looking to do something similar up here in Scotland even if it is going to be going up in autumn/winter ha! Im looking at using perhaps those rolls of bamboo or a clear perspex on top of pergola for a little bit of rain cover. The bamboo roll would look better and keep out a bit of rain. But the perspex sheet would make it rain proof but might discolour a little over time/attract algae etc.
