Expand Your Horizons: Deponti Giallo Aluminium Veranda

To help with your purchase, we've pulled together some answers to our most frequently asked questions!

Will I need planning permission?

In simple terms, no! According to the council's planning team, a pergola is classified as a temporary structure, eliminating the need for planning permission as long as it stands below 2.5 meters in height and doesn't occupy more than half of the available outdoor space.

Will I need planning permission if it's attached to my house?

Absolutely not! Aluminium pergolas offer the advantage of expanding your home's rear area by at least 270 square feet, all without the hassle of seeking planning permission or consulting with your local council. As long as the pergola remains under 2.5 meters in height (which is the case for all of ours) and doesn't encroach upon more than 50% of your garden, you're good to go!

Is planning permission needed for a pergola with a roof?

Once again, the answer is no! Our pergolas are meticulously designed to conform to height and width regulations, allowing you to install them freestanding or attached to your home without the headache of planning permission complications, regardless of whether they have a roof or sides!

What is the lifespan of aluminium pergolas?

Considering the substantial investment, you might be wondering how long your pergola will endure. The fantastic news is that aluminium pergolas are engineered to last well beyond a decade.

Can my pergola veranda be customised?

The pergola can be personalised with a variety of accessories, such as retractable screens, integrated heating systems, and enchanting LED lighting, allowing you to tailor the ambiance to your preferences. 

 What if I decide to relocate?

Aluminium pergolas are incredibly versatile in terms of permanence. They are firmly anchored in solid footings, typically made of concrete, ensuring their stability and resistance to wind speeds of up to 120kmph (that's quite a bit of wind!). However, if you choose to relocate, disassembling the pergola is a breeze, making it lightweight and easy to transport for re-installation elsewhere. Your pergola isn't tied to a single home, so it can accompany you for years to come, even if you decide to move.

Is extensive maintenance required for the aluminium frame?

Not at all! Aluminium pergolas require minimal maintenance. Leave the pressure washer in the garage and simply use a cloth with some soapy water every few months to keep your pergola frame looking brand new.

Will my home insurance cover the aluminium veranda structure?

When it comes to safeguarding your outdoor investments, such as an aluminium pergola, it's crucial to understand the extent of coverage provided by your home insurance. Exploring all available options ensures that you can create a stunning outdoor oasis that enhances your home's aesthetics and functionality while having peace of mind knowing your investment is protected.

We have put together 7 easy steps to follow:

3. Inform your insurance provider about your pergola to avoid potential claims issues.
4. Contact your insurer for specific details on coverage and potential adjustments.
