In short: The Porch Company designs and builds porches in Ealing, London Borough of Ealing, covering W5 and W13. Most porches here don't need planning permission, take one to two weeks to build, and start with a free home visit. Call 020 8049 1004.
Porches designed for Ealing homes
Ealing earned the name 'Queen of the Suburbs' for its Edwardian avenues, and much of W5 and W13 still has original tiled paths, stained glass and decorative timber. A new porch here has to respect that detail rather than compete with it.
Homes in Ealing range from Edwardian villas, Victorian terraces and inter-war semis. We match your brickwork, roof tiles and front door so the porch looks like part of the original house.
Which porch suits your house
Oak or painted timber canopies with clay tiles suit Edwardian villas. For inter-war semis around Pitshanger and Northfields, an enclosed brick porch with matching soldier courses works well.
Planning permission in Ealing
Ealing is in the London Borough of Ealing, and Ealing Council handles planning. Under permitted development, a porch normally needs no planning permission if its floor area is 3 square metres or less, no part is over 3 metres high, and it is at least 2 metres from a boundary with a road.
Ealing has many conservation areas, including Ealing Broadway, Haven Green and Mount Park, where front extensions get closer scrutiny. We check your address before we quote and, where planning is needed, we prepare the drawings. Read our porch planning guide for the full rules.
What it costs
Price depends on size, materials and finish. A simple canopy costs far less than an enclosed brick or oak porch. After a free visit we give you a fixed written price, with no pressure to go ahead. Call 020 8049 1004.
