A porch is typically a covered structure attached to the front of your house. Porches can have various designs, like a raised and covered wooden front terrace in the United States or a simple canopy over a front door. In Britain a porch tends to be a small, fully enclosed structure with added front door, windows and your choice of roof. They improve security and energy efficiency, add extra storage space and improve the curb appeal of your home.

Added Space
Create a new space to keep shoes, coats and more outside your main home. You’ll not only be freeing up space inside - you’ll also be able to contain those muddy wellies and wet coats, especially useful if your front door opens straight into your living room or kitchen.

Increased Security
A porch adds another layer of security to your home, deterring burglars and intruders. Depending on material and style, our porch doors have a wide range of security features, including Secured by Design accredited 3 -star rated cylinder locks, to keep your home safe and secure.

Better Energy Efficiency
Adding a porch adds an insulating layer on the front of your home, helping to reduce heat loss and draughts through your front door. This helps keep your home warmer in winter, reducing the amount of heating you use, which in turn helps lower your energy bills. White PVC pitched roof porch with GRP Classic Winchester dual steel
Increased Property Value

This can help to increase the value of your home, bringing all those benefits of more storage, better energy efficiency and better security. White PVC porch with white patio French doors

Customer Reviews

Do I Need Planning Permission for a Porch?

Porches tend to be quite small structures, so they class as a permitted development, meaning you don’t need planning permission. However, if your porch is larger than 3m², within 2m of your front boundary and the highway or adversely affects access, it may need approval. If that's the case, don’t worry, we take care of any planning applications and paperwork for you, keeping your project as hassle free as possible.

Your Questions on Porches Answered by Us

What is the purpose of a porch?
A porch can add useful extra space to your home, and a place to leave shoes or muddy wellies, as well as adding an interesting feature to the exterior. A porch could also increase your home’s energy efficiency as well as security by adding an extra barrier outside your original front door.
How much does a porch cost?
The cost of a porch will greatly depend on its size and location, as well as the style you choose in terms of roof shape and glazing. The materials you choose will also impact the price, such as brick, uPVC, or aluminium.
Do you need foundations for a porch?
Yes, a porch needs to be built on foundations to ensure it’s sturdy and secure. The depth of the foundations will depend on the ground and the size of the porch.
What is a prefab porch?
A prefab porch, or a prefabricated porch, means the structure is built off-site and brought to the property ready to be assembled. This can make for a faster construction of the porch. While we don’t offer prefab porches, we do offer our new modular CosyRoom conservatories, orangeries and rear extensions.
