Pergola Builders in Canal Pointe
Canal Pointe is a canal-front neighborhood in Port St. Lucie. The backyard is a seawall. The patio is the space between the house and that wall.
Yards in Canal Pointe
Houses are the city’s canal-lot type: single-story block or later stucco on slab, a short yard, a dock or a seawall, and a patio that has been screened, covered, and uncovered over the years. We start by deciding what comes off. A pergola on top of a failing cover is not a project we will sign. The new frame attaches to sound block or stands on new posts landward of the wall.
Canal sand, seawall, high water table. Footings are upland. Salt air is constant. Aluminum and marine-minded hardware are the specification. A wood pergola over a canal is a maintenance plan, not a shade plan. Storm wind along a straight canal is another reason the connections are engineered.
What the visit is usually about
What comes off, and where the posts can land, is the visit. Aluminum and attached or freestanding are the services. Cashmere Cove and Bayshore Heights are the other seawall pages.
Seawall and canal setbacks are City of Port St. Lucie rules. Florida Building Code is the code for the new frame. Dock work is not part of a pergola permit. If your old screen room has no papers, the new structure still needs its own.
Next step: the installation process, the services list, or the estimate form.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions we hear about Port St. Lucie pergola projects.
Do you include dock work with a Canal Pointe pergola?
No. Docks and seawalls are a different permit and a different trade. We keep the pergola on the upland side and we will tell you if the patio is too short to be worth the structure.
