Works on balconies, terraces, gardens and private outdoor spaces including the installation, repair, replacement or renewal of awnings, pergola curtains, pergotende and light furniture covers, interventions deemed to be simple furnishing accessory of the external space don’t need permits anymore. Gazebos and pergolas, as long as they are of limited size and not permanently fixed to the ground, are free building permits, too.

"Our Precious Tent division - explains Roberto Rescia, CEO of CoverHat - deals with the creation of works such as gazebos, winter gardens, structures to decorate gardens and terraces in precious materials and with sophisticated and customizable designs. The absence of limitations for their implementation is an important plus for those who want to enrich their houses with structures that are highly liveable and have a great aesthetic impact ".
