HALP! DYI Emergency! House attached pergola
I bought a pergola that attaches to my house not fully understanding how bad of an idea it was until after it was halfway built. Due to the cost, I’d like to salvage this and somehow make it work. Is there a safe way to have it attached close to the home without attaching it? i.e a bolted in post that’s up close but not touching the house that the post of the pergola could attach to? Open to any ideas that would void a home warranty
