In short: The Porch Company designs and builds porches in Southall, London Borough of Ealing, covering UB1 and UB2. 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 Southall homes
Southall has long Edwardian terraces and inter-war semis, many with front doors close to the pavement. A porch gives a proper entrance hall and keeps cold air and street noise out of the house.
Homes in Southall range from Edwardian and 1930s terraces and 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
Brick porches with tiled roofs suit terraces. Semis suit wider enclosed porches with a glazed front and side window.
Planning permission in Southall
Southall 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.
Areas such as Norwood Green have conservation controls, while most other streets follow standard permitted development rules. 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.
