Wind Barrier Porch Build in Cheshire

Porches act as a great first impression creating a lead way into your home. Enclosed porches add this further by also creating storage areas for you to hang up coats, store shoe stores and create utility storage. Curb appeal and practicality rolled into one.

This particular porch also has a full-length floor to the ceiling narrow window on the right next to the front door which helps create a contemporary look with the joinery and large glass screen; these with the help of the oak frame go great with the style of the building. Enabling the porch to look like a natural fit, as opposed to something you can clearly see was added at a later date to the house. As the timbers silver with exposure to the sun this point will be re-enforced further.

150mm x150mm straight cut saddle stones have also been used whilst Machine made clay tiles have been used on the roof as well as for the ridge tiles.

This stunning oak porch with its exposed oak internal rafters, copper guttering and its surrounding glass facade have been used to create a bight open secure space that acts as a brilliant statement piece before entering into the main house whilst also at the same time remaining a strategic storage area.

underfloor heating beneath the stone floor has been used by the clients and as you can see within the pictures these clients have children so as you can imagine having that extra wide area and double door really helped them unloading and loading young children in and out of push chairs with all the gear that comes with them!

With age the external oak framework will silver, as it has on the rest of the house. As you can see by the side profile photo the roofing on this porch does not butt up at the back to the main house due to the windows behind. This was designed on purpose to make it a more cost effective alternative but to also allow the existing windows to let in a decent amount of light into the existing hallway within the house.

now they have a lovely porch which is an asset to sit under with table and chairs during the summer and winter as well as balcony that they can walk out onto with gorgeous views across their garden.

It also shows how with the use of glass and wood how it is a great & easy method to help renovate & revamp a brick property. The porch element of the frame was made in oak that has silvered in the sun over time whilst the balcony has been done in idigbo.
