We recommend you engage a professional to complete your application form.

Our tip

If your deck is close to a boundary, and you have the written approval from your neighbours, you can apply for a Deemed Permitted Boundary Activity.
 
This application replaces the need to apply for a resource consent.
 
You will still need to apply for a building consent, if required.

Online

You will need to login to complete the online application, upload the completed AC1011 Lodgement checklist: Residential and pay by Visa, MasterCard, Online EFTPOS or Account2Account (bank transfer).
