On Oahu, the best room in the house is often the one outside. A good patio cover turns a hot slab of concrete into a shaded lanai you can use all day, through afternoon sun and passing showers, without hauling furniture in every time the clouds roll over.
Windows Hawaii installs Four Seasons patio covers, pergolas and louvered roofs for homeowners all over the island. They are made from aluminum with a baked-on finish, so there is no wood to rot, no termites to worry about and no repainting every few years. We help you pick a style and color that matches your house, measure the space and handle the install from start to finish.
The right cover depends on how you plan to use the space. If you mostly want filtered shade over a garden or seating area, a lattice cover or pergola lets some sun through and keeps things breezy. If you want a dry place to sit during rain and real relief from the midday heat, a solid or insulated cover is the better choice.
We also look at how the cover will attach to your house, which way the space faces, where the rain will drain and whether the project needs a permit from the City and County of Honolulu. Our team will walk you through colors, beams, posts and gutters so you know exactly what you are getting before work starts.
Open lattice gives you dappled shade and keeps air moving, which suits Hawaii well. Four Seasons Elitewood lattice has a wood-grain look without the upkeep of real wood.
A solid roof blocks the sun and keeps you dry when a shower blows through. It is the most popular choice for extending a lanai.
Insulated roof panels have a foam core that cuts down on heat radiating through the roof, so the space under them stays noticeably cooler. They are a good fit if the cover attaches to your house next to living areas.
The chart from Four Seasons Building Products shows how the main cover types compare. Insulated covers do the most to keep heat out, solid covers give you the best rain protection for the money, and lattice covers are the most open and budget friendly.
Whatever you choose, look for a cover that blocks UV, includes gutters and will not rust, warp, crack or rot in island weather. Pricing depends on the size, style and how the cover is attached, so the best way to get a real number is a free in-home estimate. Fill out the form and we will set up a time to come out.
A louvered roof gives you the best of both worlds. Open the louvers for sun and breeze, close them for shade or when it starts to rain. It is a great match for homeowners who want flexibility.
A pergola adds an open, architectural frame over a patio, deck or walkway. It is a nice spot to train flowering vines and creates a defined outdoor room without closing in the space.
If you want a room you can use rain or shine, a sunroom adds enclosed living space with plenty of light. We can talk through whether a sunroom or an open cover makes more sense for your home.
