Steel pergolas
in Cyprus — shade that
holds in the wind.

A steel pergola frame is stronger than timber and does not rot under the Cypriot sun: spans up to 6 metres without intermediate posts, any roof configuration. Garden, poolside, wall-mounted, and commercial builds for restaurants and hotels. Wind loads are calculated, not guessed.

Pergola types I build

In Cyprus a pergola is first a structure for wind and sun, and only then a decorative feature. Post and beam sections are sized for the actual span and location.

/ 01

Garden pergola

A freestanding structure over a seating area, barbecue or dining table. Painted steel, any size, with an open or closed roof.

/ 02

Poolside pergola

Shade over loungers and the water's edge. Material matters here: chlorine and salt destroy cheap coatings, so I go with hot-dip galvanising or aluminium.

/ 03

Wall-mounted pergola

Fixed to the facade and standing on two posts — it saves space and money. I always check what we are fixing into: aerated block and old render need a different approach.

/ 04

Reed and timber roofing

A metal frame with reed, bamboo or timber battens on top, as in the photos. It keeps its shape for years, and the covering can be replaced whenever you like.

/ 05

Louvres and bioclimatic

Rotating or fixed louvres let you control shade and ventilation. I build the frame for a ready-made louvre system or for one you install yourself.

/ 06

Restaurants and hotels

Pergolas for hospitality terraces, lounge areas and beach bars. Loads calculated, plus help with windbreak curtains and lighting fixings.

/ 07

Grapevine pergola

An open frame with wires or rods for a vine to climb — the classic Cypriot shade over a yard. Galvanised, because the watering keeps the metal wet every day of summer.

/ 08

Pergola over the car

When a full carport is more than you need: a light pergola with reed or polycarbonate over one parking space, 3×5 m with reed from €1750. For a closed roof see carports.

/ 09

Veranda roof on the house wall

A frame fixed to the wall over the terrace, roofed with polycarbonate or sheet, anchored into the load-bearing layer. Up to 3 m projection, from €1150.

Pergolas I have built

How the pergola is built

01

Survey and positioning

I look at the area, the shade through the day, wind direction and where water runs off. That determines where the posts land and the roof fall.

02

Section sizing

Profiles are chosen for span and load. In Cyprus wind is the deciding factor: a pergola sized by eye folds in the first serious gust.

03

Fabrication

Frames and beams are welded on site, posts made with flanged bases for anchors. Everything arrives as finished assemblies and goes up in a day.

04

Coating

Primer and powder coating in a RAL colour. For seafront sites, hot-dip galvanising or aluminium profile.

05

Installation and roofing

Anchored or cast-in fixings, roofing fitted (reed, polycarbonate, louvres, fabric), fixings checked and the site cleared.

Work out your pergola

Move the sizes and pick the roofing — the price follows. It is an estimate: the final figure comes after a site visit.

Typical configurations and prices

2.5 m × 2.5 m × 2.2 m · Painted steel · Open, no roofing €900
4 m × 4 m × 2.4 m · Painted steel · Open, no roofing €1 600
4 m × 4 m × 2.4 m · Painted steel · Louvres €3 350
5.5 m × 5.5 m × 2.6 m · Aluminium · Open, no roofing €4 050
8 m × 8 m × 3 m · Painted steel · Open, no roofing €6 050

Why the price here is approximate

What the page works out is an estimate, not a quote. The final figure is always worked out separately, because the same structure in two different places does not cost the same.

  • How easy the spot is to reach, and whether the van and the gear fit.
  • What it stands on and bolts to: wall, concrete, roof, soil — the condition of the base changes the job.
  • Where reinforcement is needed and where it can be done more simply — and come out cheaper.
  • How fast you need it, and how much preparing the site takes.

This is not factory production, where everything comes out identical, soulless and at the lowest price. Each piece is made for your particular spot. Write to me — we will go through where reinforcement is worth it and where it is not, and I will find an option that suits you.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a pergola cost in Cyprus?
The smallest open steel frame, 2.5×2.5 m, starts at €900. A 4×4 m garden pergola is €1600 as an open frame, €1850 with reed and €2100 under polycarbonate. An aluminium poolside pergola of 3×6 m starts at €2550, a louvre roof at €3350 and a restaurant terrace at €5050. Every price includes installation; the configurator on this page works out your exact size.
Is a steel pergola better than timber?
In Cyprus, yes, on service life. Timber under direct sun dries out and cracks, and near the sea it also warps with humidity. Steel holds its geometry, and you can still keep timber or reed on top for the look.
What span is possible without intermediate posts?
Up to 6 metres with correctly sized beams. More is possible, but that calls for a truss or a heavier profile, which noticeably changes the quote.
Will the pergola stand up to Cypriot wind?
If it is calculated, yes. Post sections, anchor depth and fixing type are worked out for the specific location — an exposed seafront plot and an enclosed courtyard are two different structures. Cheap pergolas are taken down by wind, not by age.
Can it be roofed with reed or bamboo?
Yes, a popular solution in Cyprus. I build the frame with battens at the right spacing; the covering sits on top and can be replaced years later without dismantling the structure.
How long do fabrication and installation take?
7–14 working days from survey. On-site erection is usually a single day, with roofing following straight after.
Steel or aluminium — which pergola is better by the sea?
Aluminium does not rust at all and weighs a third as much, but it costs more and needs deeper sections to span the same distance: a 4×4 m pergola under polycarbonate is €2100 in painted steel, €2450 hot-dip galvanised and €2850 in aluminium. Inland, painted steel is enough. Within a few hundred metres of the sea I recommend galvanised steel or aluminium — paint alone gives up there in a couple of seasons.
Can you build a metal frame for a grapevine?
Yes, it is one of the most common orders in Cyprus. It is an open frame with wires or thin rods every 30–40 cm for the vine to spread along; no roof is needed, the leaves give the shade. A 4×4 m frame is €1600 in painted steel and €1850 galvanised — worth it here, because watering keeps the metal wet all summer.
