Porches designed for Greenford homes
Greenford grew quickly in the 1930s, and many streets are still lined with semis built around the same time. Those houses suit a porch very well, and a good one makes a home stand out on a uniform street.
Homes in Greenford range from 1930s semis and terraced family homes. We match your brickwork, roof tiles and front door so the porch looks like part of the original house.
Which porch suits your house
A brick porch with a hipped roof matched to the bay window, or a modern glazed porch, suits most Greenford semis.
Planning permission in Greenford
Greenford 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.
Most of Greenford is outside conservation areas, so a porch is usually permitted development. 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.
