I just ended up having to rip down my pergola because the building inspector said the former residents didn't bother to get a permit. Of course, I had to go take it down on my own because we were having the house re-roofed and it was attached to the old roof. Now I have a back yard full of wood and am going to have to build a whole new pergola. Joy.
Man sorry about that permit issue. That sucks. Couldn't they work a belated permit for it for you to get?
Small, free-standing structures usually get a pass.
Size of the structure and it's connection to the roof were possible problems.
Depends where you live, too.
