Bradford Porch Extensions (BD1): One great way to enhance the appearance of your property in Bradford without emptying your bank account is to put up a porch extension. Building a porch is one of the easiest and most cost-effective home extension projects you can do. A porch can prevent a considerable amount of heat loss through your front door as well as give a good first impression to visitors by sprucing up your front entrance.
To help you with the planning and design of your porch, you will need to talk to an established builder in Bradford. You can also get a wealth of information and inspiration for porches on the internet.

The materials to be used for the ceiling, the windows, the floor, the walls, the roof and the door should be considered before pressing ahead with your porch.
It would be as well to also think about storage possibilities, electrics, internal design, decoration and furniture.
Do Porches Need Planning Permission? When building a porch in Bradford, you shouldn't need planning permission if no portion of the porch construction is within 2 metres from the property boundary on which it is being built or within two metres of any highway, the porch doesn't exceed a ground area of three square metres, your residence is a house, not a maisonette, flat or other kind of building, no part of the porch is over three metres above ground level.
Pop down to your local planning office if you are unclear about any of this. Your preferred Bradford porch builder will be happy to help you with this process. If in doubt, check!

Building Regulations: Building regulations and planning permission are separate and one could be needed where the other isn't. You shouldn't need building regulations approval if the following is true: the external door is not removed, the porch is less than 30m2 and on ground level and any current disabled access is maintained. Certain kinds of window and all electrical installations in porches will require building regulations approval.
Porches - The Benefits: Putting in a porch can have certain benefits, including: providing somewhere to leave muddy shoes, stand umbrellas and hang coats, increasing the value of your house, an extra deterrent to burglars, extra storage space, offering a place to leave a bicycle, reducing heat loss through your front door, giving character to an otherwise plain doorstep and enhancing the appeal of the property to buyers when you need to put it on the market.
