Homes in Clwyd

Welsh homes include long terraces built into hillsides, stone cottages and modern estates, and sloping sites often shape how and where an extension can go.

What goes into a porch?

We build porches in matching brick with a tiled or lead roof, a new composite or timber door, and lighting. If you want a wider entrance or a WC, we can design a larger front extension instead and handle the planning.

  • Planning and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
  • Tiled, slate or lead roof
  • Lighting and power

How is a porch approved in Clwyd?

Planning decisions in Wales are made by the local council, using permitted development rules set by the Welsh Government rather than England’s. Building regulations in Wales have their own approved documents, and the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies to work on shared walls and boundaries.

In Wales small porches are usually permitted development, with similar size limits to England.

What can affect a porch?

  • Keeping the original front door between house and porch can keep a porch exempt from building regulations.
  • Gas meters and drains near the front door may need relocating.
