A drier climate - think shade
At about 618 mm of rain a year, shade and UV often matter more than rain cover. Opening louvres or tinted polycarbonate panels (99.9% UV protection) keep an outdoor area usable on hot days.

Building consent in Wānaka
Wānaka is in the Queenstown-Lakes District Council area. Open, unroofed pergolas are exempt from building consent, but a roofed cover such as a canopy or louvre roof has to fit the awning or carport size limits to avoid one. We help you work out what applies before work is booked.
