At DW Windows, our front porches can be supplied and installed in a range of styles and sizes. Choose a tiled roof option or a weatherproof rubber flat roof depending on your preference. For uPVC porch frames, choose classic white or one of our authentic wood grain effect finishes. You should begin by listing what you want from your porch. For example, do you want it to provide covered storage? Or perhaps your house is looking rather two-dimensional and you feel a porch could be the solution? Would you like your porch to be able to accommodate seating? Would an enclosed porch in which to throw off outdoor clothes and shoes be more practical? Before hiring a professional, it’s important to set aside your budget and understand exactly what the typical quote will include.

With so many styles and types to choose from, the cost of building a porch varies depending on your property and preferences. Size of the porch What would the preferred truss design be? Always look at your property for existing roof lines and house style to match a truss design. I can always send some ideas if a picture is sent to me of where the porch will be positioned.

As we move forward, out of COVID-19 restrictions, we believe 2022 is the year of straight lines. Arched windows were certainly popular in the 90s and 2000s and they still look great on certain homes. However, switching out the ornate starburst windows for contemporary and clean straight-line designs can instantly give your home an updated look. Modernise your porch; take it into the future and keep it there. Most door canopies come with an installation kit which includes the tools and fittings you will need to fix the canopy to your wall. Predominantly made from oak, our porches are not only a practical addition to any property but can also completely transform the look of your house adding character and value to all properties from old traditional to modern style homes. At Timber Frame Porches we will always listen to what you are trying to achieve and we can produce 3D colour illustrations, walk through's and 2D sketches of the oak porch so you can see every element of the design and how the structure would be built. What would the preferred roof style be? i.e. gable, hipped or lean too design. This is usually kept in keeping with your existing property and existing roof angles.

They can either be built to be completely enclosed to add an extra room in your property, have the ends enclosed to be used as a storage space or as an open-sided porch that adds shade to your garden.Whether you are looking for something contemporary or something more traditional, there are plenty of choices. How Much Does It Cost? A canopy porch will transform the look of your home’s exterior. It is easy to install and you probably won’t require planning permission, unless you live in a conservation area or listed building. It is an extremely popular choice with British homeowners. It’s often installed as a way to shelter your front door from the often inclement UK weather.
