We recently had our pergola installed with Proform and they were amazing! Their communication was perfect, they kept us informed every step of the way. Our pergola is exactly what we hoped it would be and we couldn't recommend Proform enough!

I have just had my old shade house dismantled and a new one installed. This has been an amazing experience from start to finish and could not speak highly enough of the professionalism of Richard Porter, Russ and his team of carpenters, and Glen the painter.

This company is fantastic, the two young tradesmen that erect my Pergola. Where extremely professional. The completed it in one day. They also cleaned up themselfs. The painter was very professional and ask many questions to make sure that I was happy with his work. Highly recommended this company to anyone, wanting a Pergola erected.

Report
Pro-Form Pergolas built a pergola for us nine years ago. Over time, we noticed that the wood on the end truss had started to bow, causing the fixtures to seperate. I contacted Richard and within two weeks he had Steve come out and replace the truss. Its not often companies deal with warranty issues without some level of hassle and delay. I commend Pro-Form Pergolas for responding promptly and in such a professional manner.
