Custom Pavilion Builders in Lancaster, PA
Give People a Beautiful Space to Gather Outside
Maybe you have the pool, patio, lawn, or acreage, but no comfortable place to settle in and stay awhile. Lunch outside means sitting in the full sun. A passing storm sends everyone rushing indoors. Or maybe you host events but don't have a permanent covered space for guests.
Brookside Brothers builds custom pavilions in Lancaster, PA, designed around your property, the people using it, and what you want to happen there.
Imagine What Could Happen Under Your Outdoor Pavilion
A pavilion gives you more than cover. It creates a place for the things you already want to do outside—and makes your property work better when people come together.
Give family and friends a real place for dinner, birthday parties, reunions, or a Saturday cookout without squeezing everyone onto the patio.
A comfortable place for everyone to sit, eat, and stay awhile.
Bring More of the Outdoors Under One Roof
Put the outdoor kitchen, fireplace, TV, dining table, or lounge seating together instead of scattering them across the property.
One connected space for more of what you enjoy doing outside.
Keep Plans Going When the Weather Changes
Enjoy lunch in the shade or keep the party outside when a passing summer storm rolls through. Add fans, lighting, or a fireplace to make the space useful even more often.
More time outside without needing perfect Pennsylvania weather.
Give the Property a Destination
Create the place everyone heads toward—beside the pool, overlooking the farm, across the lawn, or ready for guests at your next event.
Turn open space into a permanent place with a purpose.

Find the Right Pavilion for Your Property
The pavilion you love in a photo may not be the right one for your property. Brookside helps you compare materials, size, style, and placement to find the combination that looks right, works well, and holds up for years.
Choose the Material That Feels Right
Wood or Timber
- Warm, natural appearance
- Exposed beams add architectural character
- Works beautifully with rustic, traditional, and natural surroundings
Vinyl
- Clean, finished appearance
- Lower exterior maintenance
- Easy to coordinate with many home styles
Not sure which way to go? Brookside can help you weigh the look, upkeep, cost, and long-term fit before you decide.
Make It Fit the Property
The right pavilion should look like it belongs there. Brookside considers:
- Size: Enough room for what you want without overwhelming the property
- Placement: The pool, patio, home, views, sun, shade, and surrounding landscape
- Architecture: Rooflines, proportions, materials, and finishes that complement what's already there
- Use: How people will approach, move through, and spend time in the space
You don't need to figure all of this out before calling. That's part of what Brookside helps you determine.

Common Questions
How much does it cost to build a custom pavilion?
The cost of a custom pavilion depends on its size, materials, site conditions, roof design, and features such as electricity, masonry, fireplaces, or an outdoor kitchen. Brookside can evaluate your property and plans to develop an accurate project scope rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all price.
What size pavilion do I need?
The right pavilion size depends on how many people you want to accommodate and what needs to fit underneath it. Dining tables, lounge seating, an outdoor kitchen, a fireplace, or space for larger events can all affect the footprint. Brookside can help you choose a size that fits both your plans and property.
Do I need a permit to build a pavilion in Lancaster County?
A pavilion may require permits depending on its size, location, construction, utilities, and the municipality where you live. Local zoning requirements can also affect placement. Brookside can help determine which approvals apply to your specific project.
Is wood or vinyl better for an outdoor pavilion?
Neither is universally better. Wood offers natural warmth and architectural character, while vinyl provides a clean appearance with less exterior maintenance. The right choice depends on the look you prefer, your maintenance expectations, budget, and what complements your property.
What's the difference between a pavilion, pergola, and gazebo?
A pavilion typically has a solid roof with open sides, making it well suited for dining, entertaining, and weather protection. A pergola usually has an open or slatted roof, while a gazebo has a solid roof but is often smaller, freestanding, and round or multi-sided.
Can I put an outdoor kitchen or fireplace under a pavilion?
Yes, outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, TVs, lighting, fans, and other features can often be incorporated into a pavilion when they're properly planned. Tell Brookside early what you want the space to include so we can consider the structure, layout, utilities, and necessary approvals together.
Give Yourself More Reasons to Enjoy Your Property
A pavilion you love becomes more than a structure. It becomes where everyone eats after a swim, where the family gets together every summer, or where guests celebrate something worth remembering.
You don’t need to know the perfect size, material, or design yet. Show us the property and tell us what you want to happen there. Our pavilion builders in Lancaster, PA, will help you figure out the rest and create a place you’ll look forward to using for years.
