        "text": "The lifespan of a pergola largely depends on its material, the quality of installation, and how well it is maintained. High-quality wooden pergolas, especially those made from naturally rot-resistant woods like cedar or redwood and properly sealed, can last 10-20 years or more. Aluminum and vinyl pergolas are known for their exceptional durability and can often last 25 years or even longer with minimal maintenance, making them a long-term investment for your outdoor space.",
