TurnKey Outdoor Designs has added pergolas and gazebos to its outdoor living service portfolio, expanding the New Orleans-based company's offerings to five distinct categories. The addition brings shade structure installation alongside the company's existing outdoor home decks, outdoor kitchens, patios, and sunroom services across its thirteen-community service territory in southeastern Louisiana.
Pergolas at TurnKey Outdoor Designs consist of outdoor structures typically made of wood or metal that provide shade and support for climbing plants. The structures feature vertical posts or pillars supporting crossbeams and an open lattice or grid configuration on top. Pergola installations can function as standalone structures or attach to existing buildings, with customization options including curtains, lighting, and decorative elements.
Gazebos represent the second structure type within the new service category at TurnKey Outdoor Designs. These freestanding, open-sided structures feature roofs and often include open lattice sides. Material options for gazebos include wood, metal, and vinyl, with configurations ranging from small and simple to large and elaborate designs. Gazebos can serve as shaded areas for relaxation or gathering spaces on residential properties.
The installation process for pergolas and gazebos at TurnKey Outdoor Designs follows a seven-step sequence. The process begins with consultation and design, during which property owners discuss their vision for the structure, including size, style, and additional features such as lighting or built-in seating. Site preparation follows, involving area clearing and ground leveling along with attention to necessary permits or regulations.
Foundation and footings constitute the third step in the TurnKey Outdoor Designs installation process. The team determines the type and depth of footings required based on design and structure size, then digs holes and pours concrete to create a stable base. Assembly and installation proceed next, with components fastened and the structure leveled and aligned according to design specifications.
Finishing touches follow assembly at TurnKey Outdoor Designs, including decorative elements such as lattice panels or trim. Connection points are fastened and the structure receives sealing treatment. Clean up and inspection conclude the construction phase, with debris removal and a quality and safety review before handover to the property owner.
A company spokesperson noted that the pergola and gazebo service category expands the company's shade structure capabilities in southeastern Louisiana, where climate conditions support extended outdoor use throughout much of the year. The spokesperson stated that these structures provide shade from sun exposure and define separate areas within larger outdoor spaces.
The pergola and gazebo addition brings TurnKey Outdoor Designs to five service categories. Outdoor home decks provide extended living space using materials including premium-grade wood in various styles and finishes. Outdoor kitchens feature built-in grills, prep space, countertops, and integrated storage. Patios offer foundation surfaces for seating arrangements. Sunrooms feature energy-efficient materials for year-round use regardless of seasonal conditions.
TurnKey Outdoor Designs operates within a three-phase workflow across all service categories. The consultation and vision phase involves discussion of outdoor space requirements with the company's design team. The design and planning phase produces customized plans combining creativity and practicality based on property conditions. The execution phase involves construction by the company's craftsmen according to approved plans.
TurnKey Outdoor Designs serves thirteen Louisiana communities from its New Orleans headquarters, including Baton Rouge, Covington, Gretna, Hammond, Harahan, Kenner, Laplace, Madisonville, Mandeville, Metairie, River Ridge, Slidell, and St. Rose. The company employs a team of landscape architects and designers. Inquiries may be directed to https://www.turnkeyoutdoordesigns.com/contact or 504-229-0680.
