"Order arrived quickly - all in good condition. Have been using them for quite a while now. I love that the pieces lock together magnetically - so no sliding around. You can choose your colors: top and bottom. You do the measuring - they have instructions on how to do that - and it is very simple. Their order department was very accommodating when I called. Would definitely order from them."

"Arrived early with all materials ready to work, even though there was some chance of rain for the day. The crew immediately prepared the yard around the house so nothing would be damaged during construction. They quickly had the old shingles off the roof and all new materials on top of the house before noon. At 4:30pm I went out to do an errand, when I returned at 5:15 they were finishing the last of the clean-up and everything was cleared out. I couldn't have asked for better care, faster work, or better quality. We were very impressed with the bid, the crew, the work, and the entire experience.

"Cade did an outstanding job installing our pergola and removing some concrete steps for us. He was very precise with his measurements, cleaned up afterwards, and completed the job in a timely manner. I highly recommend him."

"When the guys first arrived they looked clean and professional. They were patient and kind answering all of the questions we had. It was obvious they knew what they were talking about. When the work commenced, they were on time and picked up at the end of the day. The patio turned out great and I could hardly tell they were ever there as the yard was not torn up or muddy. These guys are legit and I will be using them in the future."

"I am very happy with the work done by JB construction.  The company came by and gave me an estitimate on two projects I was contemplating.  One of the projects I used my coupon on.  The other project was also done but paid him his normal rate.  I found the company completed the job in a very timely manner.  They even adjusted a few things that only took minutes that I was (or was not) aware of but had not asked him to do!  I was very, very appreciative of that.  They were very courteous and kept me updated on the status of the projects and their recommendations when I asked questions / opinions.  They were always prompt (on time).  I would definately recommend this service and know who to call when I need handyman services in the future.  Thank you!"

FAQs for arbor, pergola or trellis custom build projects in Iowa City, IA

Pergolas and gazebos are both outdoor structures, but there are differences between the two. A pergola has a slatted roof that allows partial sunlight to filter through, creating a light and airy space. In contrast, a gazebo features a solid roof that provides complete shade. This key difference influences the comfort and visual appeal of your outdoor space.

Prefabricated pergola kits require one to four hours of assembly, while custom pergola designs take an average of eight to 16 hours. Additional groundwork, such as pouring a concrete slab, leveling the site, and removing obstructions, may extend the installation process to several weeks, ensuring a secure and long-lasting build.

A standard pergola kit ships with everything you need—four support posts, rafters, top runners, support beams, and hardware for anchoring the frame to a concrete pad. Many manufacturers also bundle add-ons like retractable canopies, privacy screens, or modular sections that let you tweak the footprint. Because each part is pre-cut and labeled, the kit helps you—or your contractor—assemble a sturdy, attractive structure without extra trips to the hardware store.
