Covering Powys
Our coverage across Powys includes Newtown, Brecon, Welshpool and Llandrindod Wells.
Because Powys covers a wide area, we confirm availability after the first call and include any travel costs in the written quote rather than adding them later.
Homes in Powys
Housing in Wales ranges from terraced streets in the valleys and older industrial towns to stone-built homes in rural areas and modern estates around the cities.
What do you get with 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
- Front door and side window supply and fit
- Plastering and flooring ready finish

Guide prices for porches, including VAT where it applies. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing after the survey.

Planning and building rules in Powys
Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.
In Wales small porches are usually permitted development, with similar size limits to England.
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.
From first call to completion
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
