FAQs
How much does an outdoor pavilion cost?
Pavilions for sale can vary in price depending on size, materials, roof style, and customization options. Smaller, standard pavilions structures may start around $2,000, while larger, fully customized models with upgraded features can sell for $5,000 and up. Keep in mind that delivery, site prep, and assembly may add to the overall investment.
What size outdoor pavilion should I get for my backyard?
The right size depends on how you plan to use the space and how much room you have available. A small pavilion can usually fit a dining set or lounge area, while a large pavilion is ideal for entertaining or covering an outdoor kitchen or bar. Measure your available space and consider the layout of nearby features like patios, pools, gardens, or driveways (for carport pavilions).
Do I need a permit to build an outdoor pavilion?
In many areas, a permit is required for structures over a certain size or with a permanent roof. Requirements vary by local building codes, so it’s best to check with your municipality or HOA before installation. We recommend working with a contractor or checking with our team for guidance if you're unsure.
What’s the difference between a gazebo, pergola, and pavilion?
While all three are outdoor structures that define a space, they differ in design and purpose. Gazebos are typically octagonal and enclosed with a domed roof, pergolas feature open slats for partial shade, and pavilions offer a fully covered roof with open sides, making them great for sun and rain protection.

What materials are best for a pavilion?
The best materials balance strength, longevity, and visual appeal. Wood pavilions—especially those made from pressure-treated pine or cedar—offer a natural look and solid durability.
Can a pavilion be used year-round?
Definitely! With a sturdy roof overhead, a covered pavilion provides shade in summer for comfortable grilling and outdoor dining, and shelter from rain or snow in the cooler months. Add a fire pit or space heaters, and your pavilion can become a cozy, four-season extension of your home.
Are pavilion kits easy to assemble on my own?
Our pavilion kits and accessories are designed for straightforward assembly, but they do require some basic tools and construction knowledge. Many homeowners choose to DIY with a helper, while others prefer to use our professional assembly services for convenience and peace of mind.
