It fits quite snug but there are weep holes in the U trim to allow any moisture to drain. Check this out- www.coveryourpergola.com/install-instructions/apollo/
Thanks for the great video. I always enjoy watching them. I also have a flat top pergola with 10 x 14. I am also considering adding slop and clear cover, the same way it shows on this video. I noticed that you are using 2 x 8 as shim and slops down the 20 feet. I might want to use a 2 x 4, since my run is only 10 feet. Just wondering how you get the shims secured on the existing roof. Did you just screw down from top, or screw from the bottom up? or Just glue in ?
Shims might not be needed if SkyLift Roof Risers are used but if not, long shims are used to create a slope away from the house and screwed into the top of each joist during cover install so nothing is seen from under the pergola.
@@CoverYourPergola I guess I’m just confused on how they are being screwed in. Are they screwing them in from the side at an angle? I didn’t see any screws in the video from the top of the shims.
Love this idea. Where can i get this material? What is the length of the SkyPoly?

Great video. Very well explained. I have two questions.
1) How did you create our shims
2) How did you attaché the shims to the pergola
Looks like a 2x8 cedar board on its side.
Here is a video on creating shims! th-cam.com/video/kHAg7zyylWU/w-d-xo.html
What do you do to seal the top curved part of the base connector at the very ends where it meets the u- trim? There will be a gap…

@@CoverYourPergola Thank you!!
Several people have asked and still no legitimate answer. How are the shims connected to the roof of the pergola?
Shims might not be needed if SkyLift Roof Risers are used but if not, long shims are used to create a slope away from the house and screwed into the top of each joist during cover install so nothing is seen from under the pergola.

I don’t think the roof risers work in my case because my pergola is attached to the side of my house into a ledger board
We use a variety of different length screws and attach everything at an angle so you cannot see them from under your pergola.
