Get the Right Plans for Your Outdoor Structure

Thinking about building a new lanai, deck, or carport in Honolulu? These outdoor additions can make your home more useful and enjoyable—but they also require permits. To apply for a permit, you’ll need detailed, accurate drawings that show exactly what you’re planning. Home Planning Hawaii helps homeowners get the drafting support they need to submit permit applications for outdoor structures—quickly, correctly, and with less stress.

What Are Lanai, Deck & Carport Permit Plans?

These are technical drawings made for new outdoor structures or major renovations to existing ones. They’re designed to meet the City & County of Honolulu’s Department of Planning and Permitting (DPP) requirements.

A Typical Plan Set May Include:

  • Site plan with distances and setbacks
  • Floor plan of the lanai, deck, or carport
  • Elevations (side views) to show height and structure
  • Structural and material details
  • Notes that follow Honolulu building codes
