Porches:
Basically porches are small
conservatories, with the same range of
styles and products available. And just
as our conservatories all our porches
are made to measure so you can create
the style that is suitable for you home.
Roofs:
Porch roofs can be a conventional timber
/ felt construction, a pitched tiled roof,
or our full range of conservatory roofs
systems are available to create cost effective
attractive designs. The full range of
conservatory roof glazing is also available
to create the right feel to the porch.
GRP Flexi-Porch roofs make an attractive
porch and are a design that is quite unique
and rare.
Doors:
Our full range of doors is also available
for the entrance to the porch. While the
most popular is a single door, French
doors are an effective way of making a
feature of the entrance to you home; they
can also be fitted with full moulded panels
to create the look of a timber double
entrance door. Our range of crucifix and
mid-rail with vertical mullion doors are
very popular for this design.
Ventilation:
While a porch is not a room which you
will be spending long periods of time
in a south facing porch will get hot so
it is advisable to put in some form of
ventilation.
Glass:
Porches are an ideal way to make a feature
out of the entrance to you home. Our full
range of decorative glass is available
to complement your design and add your
own touch of flare. Decorative bevelled
cut glass is a particularly attractive
feature. Toughened safety glass is installed
to building regulations. Pilkington “K”
glass, Pilkington Active glass and Lifestyles
glazing upgrades can all be fitted into
a porch design.
Base:
The base of a porch is as varied as a
conservatory base. You may want a small
wall at the base of your porch or possibly
a full height wall at one or both sides
to give a permanent wall to hang coats
against. Alternatively a fully glazed
design to let more light in may be more
to your liking and we can also use moulded
panels to create a low level feature.
Finishing touches:
Floor tiles, plastered internal walls,
electric’s are all finishing touches
that we offer. Why not ask for a broken
down quotation so you can see different
options available and different prices.
Planning Permission:
Porches can be constructed up to three
square meters on the front of a residential
property without the need for planning
permission.
