Our expertise

Nine people, and the same trade since 1945

Our philosophy is summed up in three principles displayed throughout the company. Here’s what they mean, in practical terms, for a pergola installed at your home.

A philosophy, not a sales pitch

“The customer, their needs, their project. Made in France, in Franche-Comté where possible. Quality in our workmanship and precision in our craft.” These three sentences encapsulate our philosophy. The five commitments that follow stem from this, and are subject to verification: ask us about the origin of a profile, the name of the fitter who will be coming, or the availability of a spare part.

The client, their needs, their project

01

The client, their needs, their project

You don’t choose a pergola from a catalogue. What determines the range of options is the questions you ask yourself beforehand: what do you want to use this space for, at what time of day are you there, does the bay window get too hot in July, and does the wind blow round that corner of the house?

We always take this time, as a matter of course, and we sometimes recommend something other than what was originally requested — or say that a particular site is not suitable. A project that gets off to a bad start ends up costing more in the long run, not just in the quote.

Made in France, and in Franche-Comté where possible

Made in France, and in Franche-Comté where possible

It’s set out in our vision statement, and it’s not just a catchphrase: we prioritise French manufacturing and suppliers from the Franche-Comté region whenever one of them has the expertise to do the job. A short supply chain means lead times we can control and a point of contact who’s still there for us ten years down the line.

In practical terms: extruded aluminium frame, stainless steel screws and shafts, self-lubricating bushings, Somfy motor with a 5-year guarantee, Mermet fabric for zip-up awnings. These are brands you can look up.

Quality in our work and a commitment to excellence in everything we do

The guttering is integrated and runs all the way round the building. The downpipe runs inside the 130 × 130 mm posts. It is secured using a mounting plate inside the post. Nothing hangs down, nothing is added as a separate component, and nothing on the façade will age badly.

The zip-up awning is integrated into the fascia rather than fitted on top: no extra height, no protruding box. It is these details – invisible once the work is complete – that distinguish between two pergolas that look identical in the photograph.

Deadlines met, a well-coordinated project

Deadlines met, a well-coordinated project

A pergola rarely comes on its own: there’s the builder who lays the concrete slab, the electrician who installs the LED lighting, and sometimes the landscape gardener. The third point in our remit says exactly that — meeting deadlines and coordinating with the various contractors.

The 500 m² building acquired in Vellevans in 2021, fitted with racking and cantilever systems, serves precisely this purpose: to store the pergolas in suitable conditions so as not to have to rely on a delivery on the morning of installation.

Development on a human scale

05

Development on a human scale

Our vision can be summed up in one sentence: growth on a human scale, to provide high-performance tools to a dynamic and close-knit team in a family-like atmosphere. The successive acquisitions — Belleherbe in 2022, Pugey in 2024 — were carried out in this spirit, whilst retaining the existing teams and expertise.

For you, this simply means: a designated point of contact, a manager you’ll meet on site, and a phone number where someone will answer when you need to have a slat adjusted or order a spare part, even two years after installation.

    Envie d’un artisan local qui allie qualité, disponibilité, prix compétitif et gentillesse ? Vous êtes au bon endroit. Allez y les yeux fermés, vous aurez affaire avec une personne honnête et fiable comme on aimerait en rencontrer tous les jours. Je suis ravie du travail fait, une porte et trois fenêtre au centre ville de Besançon dans un bâtiment inscrit au monument historique (vous imaginez les contraintes ?). Monsieur Trehant a su me conseiller, m’accompagner et même parfois intervenir directement auprès des monuments historiques… chapeau ! Un grand merci à toute l’équipe !!! 😊
