    RIVER OAKS, TX · FREESTANDING PERGOLA

    Built by our own crew in River Oaks

    Freestanding Pergola in River Oaks, TX

    In River Oaks, we measure the site first and plan the build around estate properties with mature landscaping and masonry columns. Freestanding pergolas create defined outdoor living zones anywhere on your property — by the pool, over an outdoor kitchen, in the garden, or as a standalone entertaining area. With four or more posts anchored in concrete, freestanding pergolas offer maximum design flexibility and can be placed wherever you need shade and structure. We build freestanding pergolas in wood, aluminum, and steel to complement any property style. Our crew reaches River Oaks via Kirby Drive and Westheimer Road, which keeps measures and follow-up visits on a local schedule.

    River Oaks is in Harris County, and freestanding pergola permits here go through the City of Houston Permitting Center — we file them. Most of our River Oaks work sits off Kirby Drive and Westheimer Road, on estate properties with mature landscaping and masonry columns, and River Oaks work is scheduled around landscape and pool crews.

    River Oaks sits on Houston's heavy clay, but most properties have mature landscaping that requires careful fence routing to avoid damaging established trees and gardens. River Oaks also sees urban heat island effect combined with Houston's standard humidity and storm exposure, which is why every freestanding pergola we build here sits on galvanized steel posts set in concrete. Ornamental wrought iron with custom scrollwork is the signature River Oaks fence style. Estate-grade iron with brick columns defines many properties.

    What River Oaks Homeowners Say About Us

    5.026 reviews on Google
    “My 25 yo cedar fence was partially destroyed by Hurricane Beryl so I decided to replace the entire section of fence. I contacted several fence companies but only Kyle at 360Fence & Deck responded quickly with a willingness to measure the section and provide an estimate within the next 2 days. The estimate was lower than previous quotes and I was impressed with Kyle's customer service. They completed the job within 3 days and I am very satisfied with the results. I was very grateful they built the new fence without harming existing landscaping growing on the old fence. Clearly these guys are excellent craftsmen with the appearance and quality adhering to very high standards. Kyle was very helpful in answering my questions and concerns. I would definitely use 360Fence & Deck co for future work and I strongly recommend them to others.”
