Building a DECK and PERGOLA - Full Build Time Lapse!
What happens here
Install transparent roofing panels, such as polycarbonate sheets, directly over the pergola's main wooden beams. These panels provide protection from rain and UV rays while allowing natural light to filter through. Secure each panel according to manufacturer specifications, ensuring a watertight and aesthetically pleasing roof over the deck area.
Goal: Provide shelter and light for the outdoor living space with transparent roof panels
