Pergolas & Gazebos in Reigate
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 Reigate, that covers Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley. Reigate sits at the foot of the North Downs, with a historic town centre and a number of well-established residential areas featuring substantial Victorian, Edwardian and interwar houses. Its position near the Surrey Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB) shapes planning policy for parts of the borough.

Property styles in Reigate
Reigate has a strong stock of larger detached and semi-detached Victorian and Edwardian houses, along with mock-Tudor interwar properties, many of which suit generously proportioned rear and wraparound extensions or double-storey additions.
Planning considerations
Reigate & Banstead Borough Council is the local planning authority. The historic town centre is a conservation area, and parts of the borough fall within the Surrey Hills National Landscape (National Landscape, formerly AONB), which brings additional design and landscape considerations for extensions and new structures.

FAQs
Pergolas & Gazebos in Reigate: FAQs
Do you provide pergolas & gazebos across all of Reigate?
Yes, we cover the RH2 postcode area in full, including Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley.
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.
Does the Surrey Hills National Landscape designation affect extensions in Reigate?
For properties within the designated area, additional weight is given to landscape character and visual impact in planning decisions. We check whether your property falls within the boundary during feasibility.
