For Canterbury gardens a louvred roof is the low-commitment option that conservation-minded planning likes: an open frame most of the year that happens to seal when the weather demands it.

A louvered roof does what no fixed roof can: open for sun, angled for shade, sealed against rain, draining through the posts. It's why louvred designs have overtaken traditional open-rafter pergolas in this country. A slatted roof gets used a few weekends a year; a louvred one gets used most of it.

The Canterbury picture

Planning: Canterbury's conservation areas are extensive and the listed stock is dense in the centre. Permitted development still covers most garden structures; we confirm the specifics per property at the survey.

How it works

Five steps, and the first one costs nothing.

  1. 01

    Free site survey

    No cost

    Ground fixings, water run-off and height, plus whether there is power nearby if you want the roof motorised.

  2. 02

    Motorised or manual

    Two options

    The honest test is distance. Ten steps from the kitchen, manual is fine. Further away, motorised earns its money.

  3. 03

    Built to order

    Made to order

    Made to the surveyed sizes, powder-coated and delivered to us.

  4. 04

    Installed and tested

    From one day

    Fitted, the roof cycled through its full range, drainage checked and the garden left clean.

  5. 05

    Guaranteed

    10 years

    BS EN1090 accredited frames, with a 10-year structural guarantee on the Morvelle range.

What Kent customers actually said

Quoted word for word from our Google Business Profile, with the job each one was. Names included because they are already public there.

★★★★★Francesca DavisonMorvelle pergola, Sittingbourne
One day. Spotless garden. A gorgeous new Morvelle pergola that feels like a proper extra room. The Sittingbourne team were lovely from start to finish
★★★★★Sadie GoodwinPergola with lighting and heating
Highly recommend Eden Grove. I purchased a Pergola and it's perfect, creating a beautiful dining space to sit outside longer into the evening. The lights and heater make it extra special. From choosing a pergola to installation Eden made the whole process easy.

Want yours priced properly?

The survey is free and settles the three things that decide the job: ground fixings, water run-off and height. No obligation either way.

The detail

The ranges we fit
Are louvered roofs waterproof?

Good ones, yes. Closed blades seal into a continuous surface and rain drains through concealed gutters in the frame. Build quality shows here first, which is why we only fit BS EN1090 accredited frames, and why the Morvelle range carries a 10-year structural guarantee.

Every roof type against British rain, compared

Motorised or manual?

Motorised for convenience, sensors and integrated lighting; manual crank for a lower cost and no electrics. Both control sun and rain the same way.

Can louvres handle snow and wind?

Properly installed aluminium systems are engineered for UK conditions. Exposed, coastal and hilltop sites need the fixing spec adjusted, which is a survey conversation rather than a reason to avoid the format.
