Covering Leominster
Leominster sits 12 miles north of Hereford, with Ludlow 10 miles to the north and Hereford 12 miles to the south.
Homes in the West Midlands
Across the West Midlands, terraced and semi-detached houses in red brick are typical, along with post-war estates where garage conversions and side extensions are popular.
What is included in a porch in Leominster?
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.
- Design to match the house
- Front door and side window supply and fit
- Plastering and flooring ready finish
How much should I budget for a porch?
Guide prices for porches, including VAT where it applies. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing after the survey.
| Porches | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Open canopy over the door | £2,500 to £5,000 |
| Brick porch with tiled roof | £6,000 to £10,000 |
| Larger porch or front extension | £10,000 to £16,000 |
What approvals does a porch need in England?
English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.
In England a porch is permitted development if its footprint is no more than 3 m² measured externally, no part is higher than 3 m, and no part is within 2 m of a boundary with a road or footpath. Larger porches need planning permission.
What can change the price or programme?
- Gas meters and drains near the front door may need relocating.
- The roof pitch should echo the main roof or bay window.
What happens after I enquire?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
