Pergolas in Surfers Paradise
A pergola suits a small courtyard better than a solid roof in many cases. You get definition and some shade without making the space feel closed in.

Pergolas for small outdoor spaces
Because a pergola has an open top, it does not darken the rooms next to it the way a roof can. In a courtyard surrounded by walls, that matters.
Aluminium suits small spaces because the profiles are slim and need no oiling. Timber looks warmer but needs a little care.

Courtyard pergola options
Wall-mounted pergolas
One side fixed to the house or a masonry wall, so you only need posts on the outer edge.
Batten spacing
Closer battens give more shade. Wider spacing lets more light through. We set it for how much sun the courtyard gets.

Adding a canopy
A retractable fabric canopy under the battens gives extra shade on hot days and folds away in winter.
