Design your own enclosed porch.
We pride ourselves on our wonderful variety of front and back porches for homes all over the UK and the Channel Islands. We even have examples of each, which are easily found on our website in picture format if you wish to see what we have provided to many happy customers over the years we have worked in this industry.
Looking at some of these stunning designs may even cause inspiration to strike for you. Perhaps they have added a small outdoor seating area that has caught your eye as a new use for your porch, or maybe they have added string lights in the roof as an aesthetic feature and you absolutely have to have them for yours as well?
When your imagination does take over, our online product builder will be ready and waiting to help you create your own covered wood porch. This quick, effective tool allows you to put together all the parts of a porch extension, showing you what a myriad of designs could look like when you choose to add them to your home. No matter if you have plans for a full height porch with a balustrade or a low brick plinth porch with render and mullion panels, our online builder can help you plan every part to your tastes.

Our Covered Porch Types
We have a range of porch types which offer partial or full coverage of front doors, doorsteps and other entryways or exits from your home. All of these can be adapted to suit the look of your property and your own personal tastes as much as you would like:
- Wall and Floor Mounted Porch
- Low Brick Plinth Porch
- High Brick Plinth Porch
- Full Height Porch
In most cases, none of these covered porch types will require planning permission. However, this rule does change depending on the dimensions of the porch you wish to have installed. To find out more about this, please see our post on getting planning permission for a porch.

Covered Porch Styles
Every covered porch we have can be made into its own style, so that it will fit your home in every way you have imagined. Our team will ensure that every requirement you have is taken into account, too, from the exact angle you want from our roof options, to other porch features such as balustrades, render panels and front beam ends.
Explore the options you have today and experiment with different ideas for your covered porch, from its roof, truss and beams to the panelling, brick plinth or balustrades, and you are bound to find the design that you have been looking for.
Bespoke Covered Porch Ideas
Often, we will have customers come to us with their own planning drawings already in hand, or their own ideas in mind of what they really want for their covered timber porch. When this happens, we are always ready and willing to accommodate, so that they can have exactly the porch they want. We can do this for you as well, so if there is a design idea out there that you love, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us so we can have a chat about getting it made into a kit.

Our Covered Porch Kits are Primed for Easy Assembly
When we put your covered porch kit together, everything will be manufactured and prepared to your exact specifications, as well as for a simple and swift build if you have some previous DIY experience. This is achieved through our use of traditional jointing techniques, which allow the installer to slot each part into place, assembling the product in no time at all.
We always aim to offer a little extra of our own help whenever we supply our customers with a kit, by including easy-to-follow instruction manuals with each one. We will also be happy to provide planning drawings when requested.

Covered Porch Costs
The cost of a timber porch extension in the UK can vary greatly, depending on a number of different factors. For example, in some cases the cost of a purchase may be based on size, while money may also be added to the price if extra features are required for your porch when you place your order. As such, we have no fully set price for any individual porch type and will calculate the cost of your purchase based on your set specifications.

“But what about budgeting? How can it be planned?” have to be the next thoughts that come from this information, but there is no need to worry. As part of our customer service, we aim to offer the most competitive prices for porches that we can, helping you to meet your budget wherever possible. When you get in touch to place an order, we can also go over your planned work with you and supply you with an estimated price.
To get started on working out the costs for your dream home improvement feature, all you have to do is give us a call or send an email today and one of our expert team members will come back to you as quickly as they can with what you might expect to pay.
