Wooden Shelters: Designs and Ideas for 2023

Wooden frame shelters are in high demand across British Columbia this year. Whether it's for residential or commercial applications, these versatile and attractive structures can be used in a variety of ways as they are fully customizable. With extensive experience in the building industry, our commercial contractors are experts in wooden shelters. So, if you're looking to use a wooden shelter for your home or business, First Peak Contracting has you covered.

Looking to add beauty and function to your outdoor space? Here are five design ideas for wooden shelters to help get your project off the ground in 2023.

1.    Pergolas

The beauty of a pergola is that it can be as simple or elaborate as you want, creating an outdoor living space that feels warm and inviting. Our pergolas are ideal for adding shade to your yard during the hot summer months. Pergolas come in all shapes and sizes, so there’s no limit to what you can do with them. They can also be painted or stained to match your home's exterior colour scheme.



2.    Picnic Shelters

A wooden picnic shelter is a stunning addition to any backyard space or park area. You can have picnic tables with benches underneath your shelter, offering up a shady and protected place to enjoy a meal outdoors with friends and family. Wooden picnic shelters also come in many different shapes and sizes to accommodate any number of people and can be used year-round.

3.    Hot Tub Shelters

People love spending time in their hot tubs because they provide the ultimate place to relax and unwind after a long, stressful day. However, having to jump out of that wonderfully warm water during unpleasant weather can take away from the soothing experience, fast. That’s why many homeowners are adding a wooden hot tub shelter to their property so that they can enjoy their spa even when it’s snowing outside!

4.    Pool Shelters

Do you have a pool or are planning to install one soon? Having a wooden shelter designed, built, and installed by our team is a must. Pool shelters provide a fantastic place to relax, offer protection from the scorching sun during the hot summer months, and deliver great looks too! When you want to make the most of your pool, a wooden pool shelter from First Peak Contracting is the ideal solution.

5.    Bus Shelters

When you think of bus shelters, images of standard concrete and metal structures may spring to mind. While those can be functional, they can also be dull and uninviting. A wooden shelter is a great way to add some character, charm, and aesthetic appeal to your bus stop while still maintaining its functionality.

At First Peak Contracting, our wooden shelters are designed with you in mind. They are built to last and come in a variety of eye-catching styles and designs, so there’s sure to be one that fits your personal tastes.
