Getting Started

A gazebo is an outdoor shelter that can function as a backyard retreat, a casual dining area, or a gathering spot for family and friends.  However, you intend to use it, building your gazebo with Timber Specialties Co. CCA (chromated copper arsenate) pressure treated wood will make it an enjoyable addition that will last for years.

Similarly, arbors can be designed to shade a patio or deck, to highlight a nice section of your yard, or to provide a support for climbing flowers.  The gazebo and arbor plans presented here can be altered to fit your specific needs using the customizing options.

It's important to check local zoning and building code regulations before you start building.  Many communities have regulations for "accessory buildings" including height and size restrictions and setbacks. There may also be some limitations on the types of materials you can use.  Also, you need to be aware of the location of all utility lines including water, gas, electric and sewage.

Since you'll want your gazebo to retain it's good looks and remain sturdy for many years under all weather conditions, you'll want to build it with Timber Specialties Co.
