Re: How to close up this gap

Hello @laurat1989 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your pergola wall.

 

If the gap behind that wall is flat and can be filled with an expanding material I suggest using Parfix 340g Expanding Foam Filler. The foam filler will expand to 3 times its mass and will fill almost any gap. Once the foam cures you can trim it down with a Stanley or Craft knife. Another option is to use a timber skirting board to cover the large gap. Once the large gap is covered, I suggest using Selleys 430g White No More Gaps Exterior Gap Filler under the timber skirting to totally cover the gap.

 

Let me call on our experienced members @Nailbag and @Dave-1 for their recommendations.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
