Pergola Builders in Woodland Trails
Woodland Trails is a Port St. Lucie neighborhood along wooded edges and interior streets. Some patios are shaded by the preserve. The ones that are not need their own roof.
Yards in Woodland Trails
Houses are subdivision single-family homes on slab. Preserve-edge lots have a dark corner and a bright corner. Interior lots are brighter and more ordinary. A pergola on a preserve lot should cover the bright corner without pushing posts into the buffer. Interior lots can take a full lanai span. We do not use one layout for both just because the neighborhood name matches.
The wooded edge is sand, roots, and a buffer we do not grade. Interior lots are graded sand and sod. Footings stay out of the buffer even when the shade would be better two feet back. Aluminum is the frame because the edge stays damp. Louvers let you open the roof when the trees are doing the work.
What the visit is usually about
Buffer versus full sun is the question on the form. Louvered pergolas suit the edge lots. Attached spans suit a plain interior lanai. Hidden Oaks is a different wooded neighborhood.
Preserve buffers are a City of Port St. Lucie and plat issue. Florida Building Code applies on both the edge lots and the interior lots. Association review, where it exists, is additional. Send the plat page if your lot touches the trees.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions we hear about Port St. Lucie pergola projects.
Can posts go in the wooded buffer?
No. The buffer stays. The pergola stays on the patio side of it. If that leaves a span too small to be useful, we will say so before you pay for drawings.
