Porch Extensions Alford

Any professional builder in Alford, should be able to help you with ideas, plans and designs for porches. You can also get a wealth of inspiration and information for porches on the internet.

It would also be a good idea to think about internal design, decoration, the provision of electricity, furnishings and storage options at this stage.

Do I Need Planning Permission for a Porch? At the time of writing this posting, you should not need to apply for planning permission for a porch in Alford if the external floor area isn't more than three square metres, no section of the porch construction is over 3m above ground level, your residence is a house, not a flat, maisonette or other kind of building, no portion of the construction is within two metres of any road or 2m from the boundary of the property.

Your local planning office is the place to head for if you are the slightest bit uncertain about the need for planning permission. Your chosen Alford porch builder will no doubt help with this process. If in doubt, check!

Building Regulations: Remember that planning permission is different to building regulations. Building regulations approval should not be needed if the porch is less than 30m2 and is at ground level, the present exterior door remains in place and any current disability access is retained. You will need to get building regulations approval for electrical installations and certain types of window in porches.

Porch/Overdoor Canopies

If you are planning to cover the main doorway to your home in Alford, but don't wish to install a completely enclosed porch, a porch or overdoor canopy would probably be the answer. You will be able to both protect your front door from the worst that the Alford weather can throw at it, and provide an elegant entrance that will improve the appearance of your house, by putting up a lightweight overdoor porch canopy. Offered in a wide array of shapes and styles, porch canopies can be made to complement the main design features of virtually any property in Alford. The overdoor canopy patterns that are most often available are the A-frame canopy, the flat roof canopy, the hipped canopy and the single-pitch canopy.

Lean-To Porches

Having a forward sloping roof that can be built to complement the roof of your home in Alford, or blend in with a previously installed canopy or awning, a lean-to porch is a very popular choice. Lean-to porches are an effective, yet relatively economical way to enhance the facade of your home. A lean-to porch that is completely enclosed can save on energy bills by providing insulation to your front door, provide a bit of shade from direct sunlight, add a supplementary layer of security and create a useful extra space for keeping shoes, hats and coats.

Equally effective on either the front, side or rear of your property, lean-to porches are one of the simplest ways to extend your home in Alford. A lean-to porch can be open to the elements, fully enclosed or partially enclosed, depending on your particular needs. In fact they can be as simple as a sloping roof held up by four (or even just two) timber posts. You can even buy lean-to porch kits, if you are keen to test your DIY abilities. However, employing a local Alford porch builder may be a better option.

If you'd like to add that extra smidgen of curb appeal to your property in Alford, and really have it stand out from the crowd, you may want to think about a lean-to porch.
