About Gazebos
Gazebos create stunning focal points in landscapes while providing complete weather protection for outdoor gatherings. Dream Decks constructs custom gazebos throughout the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metro area, from classic octagonal designs to modern rectangular structures, each built with materials and craftsmanship designed for Minnesota's climate.
Unlike pergolas with open rafters, gazebos feature complete roofing that provides full protection from sun and rain. This makes gazebos ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxation regardless of weather. Open gazebos allow natural airflow while blocking precipitation. Screened gazebos add insect protection for bug-free enjoyment. Hardtop gazebos with solid roofing provide the ultimate in weather protection, suitable even for use during light rain or as snow-covered winter retreats.
Our gazebo construction includes proper foundation engineering with frost-depth footings that prevent movement through Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles. Roof structures are engineered for significant snow loads—critical for freestanding structures that accumulate snow from all directions. We offer electrical integration for lighting, ceiling fans, and outlets that make your gazebo functional day and night. Material selection ranges from traditional wood framing with shingle roofing to low-maintenance aluminum with metal roofing panels.
