Pergolas & Gazebos in Crawley
A pergola is an open timber (or similar) framed structure, usually with a slatted or partially open roof, built over a patio or walkway to provide partial shade and structure, while a gazebo is a fully-roofed freestanding garden structure — both can be supplied as a kit or built bespoke to fit a specific space.
In Crawley, that covers Ifield, Three Bridges, Southgate, Furnace Green, Broadfield, Pound Hill, Maidenbower, Northgate, West Green, Langley Green, Tilgate, Gossops Green, Bewbush. Crawley combines postwar new-town neighbourhoods with older pockets around Ifield, Three Bridges and Southgate, and sits close to Gatwick Airport with strong transport links into London and along the M23. Housing stock ranges from 1950s–70s estate homes to Victorian terraces and more recent developments, which means project requirements vary considerably from one street to the next.

Property styles in Crawley
Crawley's housing mix includes postwar semis and terraces across the New Town neighbourhoods, Victorian and Edwardian houses around the older Ifield and Southgate areas, and newer estate housing on the town's edges. Many properties are well suited to rear or side-return extensions where garden depth allows, and loft conversions are common in the older stock.
Planning considerations
Crawley Borough Council is the local planning authority. Ifield village and parts of the old town centre fall within conservation areas, which affects permitted development rights and materials on visible elevations. Properties near Gatwick Airport may also be subject to safeguarding or noise-related planning considerations, which we check at feasibility stage.

What's the difference between a pergola and a gazebo?
A pergola is typically an open-roofed structure — slatted, louvred or lattice — built over a patio or walkway to give partial shade and support for planting, while a gazebo is fully roofed and usually freestanding, offering more complete weather protection.
Is a kit pergola cheaper than a bespoke one?
Generally yes — a manufactured kit is designed to standard dimensions and is quicker to install, whereas a bespoke structure is designed and built to fit your exact space and specification, which takes more design and construction time and typically costs more.
