Outdoor Structures That Make a Statement

Pergolas, Gazebos & Arbors in Rhode Island

Form and Function—All in One Build

Custom Backyard Structures for Shade, Style & Privacy

Whether you want filtered shade, a peaceful garden feature, or a covered seating area, we design and build custom pergolas, gazebos, and arbors that enhance your outdoor living space. Alliance Deck Builders of Rhode Island crafts each structure to match your home’s design, deck layout, and personal taste. Choose wood, vinyl, or composite materials—freestanding or attached. It’s beauty and utility in one thoughtful build.

Add Comfort, Character & Shade

The Right Structure for Every Outdoor Need

Pergolas give you partial shade and visual interest over decks or patios. Gazebos create fully sheltered seating with optional screens or railings. Arbors mark entryways, pathways, or garden spaces with classic charm. Whatever your vision, we’ll help you pick the right structure, scale, and material to complement your yard and your lifestyle. It’s about creating focal points that also serve a purpose.

  • Pergolas: open-roof shade with beams or lattice

  • Gazebos: full-roof, freestanding spaces for seating

  • Arbors: entry or garden features with climbing support

Structures That Blend Seamlessly with Your Space

We don’t use cookie-cutter kits. Every pergola, gazebo, and arbor is custom designed to match your deck’s layout, your home’s architecture, and your yard’s conditions. We consider sun angles, wind patterns, and existing landscaping. Materials are selected for both looks and longevity—whether you prefer natural cedar, low-maintenance vinyl, or powder-coated aluminum.

Perfect as a Standalone or Deck Addition

Freestanding or Integrated—We Build Both

Whether you want a pergola built into your deck or a standalone gazebo tucked into the yard, we can do both—and everything in between. Our structures can be added during a new deck build or retrofitted onto existing patios, lawns, or walkways. With our flexible design and build approach, the structure fits your space instead of the other way around.

Full-Service Outdoor Craftsmanship

Design. Build. Install. All In-House.

We manage every phase—from the first sketch to the last fastener. That means no subs, no delays, and no disconnects. Whether it’s digging footings, framing a custom roof pitch, or integrating lighting and fans, our Rhode Island-based crew handles it all. We bring decades of carpentry and outdoor structure experience to every job—so the finished result is solid, safe, and stunning.
