Cost to install a metal pergola with retractable canopy

Question

We want a metal-framed pergola with a retractable shade canopy for the patio. It'd be about 4x3 metres. What's a rough installed cost for something like that?

Blerim · Answer

For a 4m x 3m metal pergola with a retractable canopy, you can typically expect to pay £2,000–£5,000 installed, depending on the quality of the frame, canopy system and ground preparation required. Premium aluminium pergolas with motorised canopies or integrated lighting can cost £5,000–£10,000+. A site survey would be needed for an accurate quotation, especially if new foundations or paving alterations are required.

Hi Beverley, we would need to see the link to where you purchased the pergola, but we estimate you would need 2 handymen for 2-3 hours at £220-£300. Kind regards, George

This would depend on a few factors,   what material is being used ? Aluminium, steel etc. Is it a free standing pergola or will it be fixed to the side of your home. Would the tradesman need to supply the pergola ? Will the pergola be bolted , or concreted in place ? 
Judging by the size of the pergola itself you would need a minimum crew of 2 installers and potentially 2 apprentices as well , at the size of the pergola my assumption is it would be anywhere from 2 metres to 2.3 metres tall which would mean working at height. 
My expectation for a full 8 hour install ( bear in mind that depending how complicated the pergola is this timeline could be extended ) something in the region of between £800 - £950 excluding VAT to cover labour and ancillary costs.  As a consumer though if you are considering an Aluminium pergola take a took at the ibiza Aluminium pergola that the range does. All in price inclusive if labour for a prefab would be something in the region 2.5k -2.8k including VAT would give you a decent budget with some wiggle room  for unseen contingencies

Hi Beverley, this should be a days work maximum for two capable guys. £200 - £400 top.
