Porch entrances for Chigwell homes

Around Chigwell you will mostly find large detached houses, executive homes and 1930s semis. Detached houses and cottages usually have room for a larger porch, but one exceeding permitted development size limits will need a planning application.

1930s semis with recessed or arched entrances suit infill porches that close the recess with a new glazed frame and door, rather than a separate structure. In conservation areas and on listed buildings, porches on front elevations are closely controlled, so discuss the design with the council before submitting plans.

Big glass panels are heavy, and long drives or side access can be awkward, so delivery and lifting are planned properly at the survey rather than on the day. Many owners also prefer one company for windows, doors and the roof together, which is how we work: the same team surveys, makes and fits. Chigwell is about 5 miles from Edmonton.

A porch adds an enclosed entrance at the front or back of your home, creating a buffer against weather, draughts and noise, plus space for shoes, coats and deliveries. We design and build porches with made-to-measure frames and doors, suiting terraces, semis and detached homes alike.

  • Extra space for coats and shoes
  • Buffer against draughts and cold air
  • Secure place for parcels and deliveries

Questions from Chigwell

Do I need planning permission for porch entrances in Chigwell?

Much of Chigwell is in the Green Belt and Epping Forest District Council looks closely at changes to larger homes, so we check whether planning permission is needed before quoting. A porch on a house is usually permitted development if its ground floor area is no more than 3 square metres, no part is over 3 metres high and it is at least 2 metres from a boundary with a highway, and ground-level porches under 30 square metres are generally exempt from Building Regulations if the existing front door is kept.

How soon can you fit porch entrances in Chigwell?

Lead times vary by product and workload — confirmed with your quote. Being about 5.0 miles from our factory makes surveys, fitting days and aftercare visits easy to arrange.

What door should I choose for my porch?

A composite or uPVC door matched to the frame colour is a common choice, with your existing front door kept as an inner door. This creates a draught lobby and keeps your home secure. Keeping the existing door also helps the porch stay exempt from Building Regulations.

Can I see samples before I decide?

Yes. Our showroom is at Unit G, 1 Anthony Way, London N18 3QT (Mon–Fri 8am–5pm), about 5.0 miles from Chigwell. We can also bring samples to your home in Chigwell at the free survey.
