Custom Pergola Design & Installation in Phoenix, Arizona
If you’re thinking about a fun way to spruce up your backyard, making it more inviting for family members and guests alike, fewer options are better than a new pergola. Pergolas can break up a large yard, make it feel complete, and are versatile enough to be installed just about anywhere you’d like.
Let’s take a quick look at what makes pergolas so popular with Phoenix homeowners.
- Cozy outdoor living space for family meals, kid’s play area, or lounging.
- Shade where you need it, whether it’s beside a pool, over a breakfast table, or accompanying a dog run.
- Adds curb appeal as many home shoppers want a home with a yard they can actually enjoy spending time in.
With Turf Monsters as your partner, you can rest assured knowing that we bring decades of experience to each project. From your first call to us, throughout the design process and installation completion, to our final handshake and beyond, you can rely on us and our warranty-backed work.
How Much Does a Pergola Cost?
Pergolas can be inexpensive, modest models that merely act as an ornament as opposed to having any real utility. Then, of course, you can have an extremely elaborate design with stone columns and tiled roofing, which is considerably more expensive.
As each customer’s yards are unique and we custom-build our pergolas to match the given space, we are unable to assign fixed prices. But a quick call to our design team and we can promptly give you a project estimate.
For budget-conscious Phoenix residents, ask about our Alumawood® pergolas that are affordable and hold up very well under the relentless heat of Arizona’s summers.
Choosing the Right Type of Pergolas for Your Phoenix, AZ Yard
Attached Pergolas
As the name suggests, these pergolas are attached to the home on one or more sides and extend out into the yard. They’re a great way to get more out of an existing patio space by providing more square footage (if desired) and allowing you to sit outdoors regardless of where the sun is positioned.
We often pair attached pergolas with an outdoor cooking area, such as covering a BBQ grill or dining set. Similarly, customers enjoy extending their homes over fire pits as it’s an aesthetically pleasing feature. An attached pergola is also convenient for running in and out of the house when cooking or entertaining, as they’re typically close to the door.
Attached pergolas are one of the least expensive options.
Freestanding Pergolas
Again, the name tells you that this style of pergola does not attach to a larger structure and can pretty much be erected anywhere in your yard.
Many customers simply want a quiet place to read or work and will construct a pergola in a nook, beside a pool or jacuzzi, or adjacent to a pool house to create that tranquil space.
Freestanding pergolas come in just about any size, design, and color you can imagine. The only restriction is the amount of available space it will be installed in. If you are limited on square footage, our design team can custom-make a pergola that fits your yard perfectly.
Choosing the Right Pergola Materials: AlumawoodⓇ
As you would imagine, pergolas come in a variety of materials that includes wood, metal, and fiberglass to name a few. One of our preferred systems is Alumawood® which uses a combination of wood and metal. The materials stand-up to the harshness of Phoenix’s sun without warping, splintering, rotting, or melting.
Turf Monsters’ pergolas are customized, durable, and low-maintenance. If you want a professionally installed pergola in your Phoenix yard, reach out to our design team today to get a free project estimate. We look forward to working with you and bringing new life to your backyard!

What Are Our Customers Saying?
“Good work, looks awesome. Very professional people, can not be happier with the results!! Were on time, worked through the weekend to get the job done as planned. Good value for sure!! Mike really worked with me to stay in my budget. Wish I knew how to post some pictures here, but really recommend this company without hesitation!”
– Enrique V.
“These guys are amazing! I shopped around to multiple different companies and they were the best value hands down. They are competitive on pricing but their product was far better than anyone else. They got my job done in 4 days and were very respectful of my home. They cleaned up after themselves and were very friendly. Mike came by every day to check on the progress and make sure that I was happy with the job. I have already recommended them to my friends!”– Megan D.

Mike and his team did an excellent job of transforming our barren backyard into a beautiful green oasis. I got multiple quotes and Mike was responsive, informative, and listened to what we wanted. The pricing was competitive and included everything we needed. The crew was courteous, professional, and did a quality job. They were in and out in a few days and left the area cleaner than when they arrived. We are looking forward to enjoying the putting green and spending time in the backyard again for years to come. I would highly recommend Turf Masters for anyone looking to do a project in their yard!
We love our new backyard! There are many options to pick from and we are super indecisive. They were super patient with us during the decision process. They got the work done in 2 days and it looks great. It has held up well considering high foot traffic and 2 dogs. We will absolutely be hiring them when we are ready to complete our patio with the pavers and have been referring them to friends and family.
Mike and his team are amazing!! Mike came out to look at our backyard, we told him what we wanted and he designed it for us within 45 min we had a design and a quote. We then picked out our turf, pavers, and rock and they began that following week. Our backyard was finished in 4.5 days. The Turf Monster team worked hard every day and did an amazing job. Every day they cleaned before they left and came every morning at 7-7:30 to start. Before I buy anything, I look at reviews!! And Turf Monsters have 5 stars and are consistent with my review. Give Mike a call to get a quote! Quality and price!! Amazing
I’m really impressed with Turf Monsters’ work and quality. I got a few quotes and felt most comfortable with Mike. The American made material is what sold me. The crew leader and his guys did a solid job.
Mike and team did an exceptional job on our lawn! From the initial meeting to final inspection, Turf Monsters was meticulously focused on delivering an end product that we would be thrilled with. And we were! Thanks, Mike and team. You guys are fantastic!

I have written proof of multiple communications with my project manager raising concerns well before I chose to cancel the pergola. Claiming I never raised concerns until after my refund was denied is simply false. I said you offered to pay the permit fees but that was not until AFTER I said I wanted to cancel and no long work with you due to the issues I already experienced.
Origional Post:
I would never work with Turf Monsters again, nor would I ever recommend them to anyone. My experience has been nothing but frustration, misrepresentation, and poor-quality work.
When I signed my contract, I was told the project (turf, patio, and pergola) would start within 1–2 weeks and be completed in a day or two. Instead, it dragged out for over a month with multiple no-shows, last-minute cancellations, and poor communication. I had to reschedule my new patio furniture delivery and take unnecessary time off work because they could not keep their word.
The quality of the work that was completed was disappointing. I received chipped pavers and foundation damage (which I made them repair) and smaller trees than promised. I requested 8' privacy trees, but the estimate listed 5–6' trees. When I questioned it, my project manager (Anthony) promised they would be at least 6'. Instead, I received two 5' trees and one 6' tree that do not provide any privacy. On top of that, the irrigation lines they installed do not work, and the new trees are dying despite raising this concern multiple times. They promised to come look at it but never showed. When I brought it up to the owner (Mike), he ignored it completely. They still have not repaired the issue. After the patio and turf work was finished, they also left materials in my front yard and on the street, and it took four days and multiple requests before they removed them. At one point, my project manager told me he was even frustrated with the workers.
The pergola portion of the project was especially problematic. I was first told no permit was required, later told it was optional, and eventually told I had to obtain one for the pergola structure. I pulled the permit rather than pay the company $500 plus permit costs. I contacted the township, gathered the requirements, and submitted drawings provided by my project manager. I was later told I would also need an electrical permit on top of the permit I already requested. Then, when the permit was rejected because the drawings were incomplete, I was told I need to pay an additional $1,200 for an engineering plan to get the permit approved. When I called the township later to clarify, I was informed that Alumawood pergola structures do not require a permit at all — only the electrical work needed a permit.
I canceled the pergola due to these constant changes, delays, and the lack of trust I had in Turf Monsters to do the work properly. At first, my project manager told me I would receive a refund. Later, they changed their story, claimed the pergola had already been ordered (without proof), and tried to charge me a 25% “restocking fee” that does not apply under their own contract. They also inflated the pergola cost to $10,000, when the estimate clearly lists the pergola structure at $7,560.
When I stated I wanted to cancel the pergola because of all of the issues, they did offer to pay half of engineering fees, then all of the permit and engineering fees, however my trust with them had already been severed by that point and I did not want to continue to work with them.
When I stated I wanted to move forward with cancelling, I was told I had only two options: proceed with the pergola or cancel with no refund. This is not only unprofessional but completely inconsistent with the written contract. There is no way I would allow this company to continue to work on my project with all of the issues I had already experienced.
Turf Monsters has proven that they do not stand by their quality of work, they do not honor their timelines, and they do not operate with honesty or transparency.
Steve came out to see what we envisioned for extending our patio with pavers. He truly understood what we wanted and made it happen. In just 2 and a half days the job was completed.
28' X 5'10" of pavers were installed, plus a 28' X 10" X 12" footing was poured for us to install an awning.
Oscar moved the sprinkler valves and a couple of sprinkler heads out beyond the new patio extension.
The entire crew members worked hard to get it all done as quickly as possible in well over 100° heat.
They were very professional, courteous, and much appreciated.
Overall, a good experience, quality product, and workmanship.
The project was completed and my dogs and I absolutely love it! I fully recommend this company and if I find reason to use them again, I definitely will! Do yourself a favor and choose this company. You will be blown away by their outstanding quality of work!
Anthony was the best to work with. He was attentive to every detail. Thank you for a job well done! Tom and Kathy
Response to the owner: My review was about a serious safety issue involving one of your company vehicles, not entertainment. Instead of addressing the concern professionally, your sarcastic response downplayed a situation that could have caused real harm. Your response lacks professionalism and care for community safety. I hope future feedback is taken more seriously.
Turf Monsters delivered five-star service from start to finish! Greg, our salesperson and project manager, guided us every step of the way in creating our dream backyard. He was patient, flexible, and worked with us through multiple design changes until we landed on the perfect layout.
Armando and his crew were fantastic on the execution side—professional, detail-oriented, and clearly committed to quality craftsmanship. Greg also respected our budget, making sure we got exactly what we envisioned at a competitive price.
From consultation to completion, Turf Monsters truly knocked it out of the park. We couldn’t be happier with the result.
