Your entryway will never have looked as impressive as it does with a charming porch built into the frontage. Aside from the amplified styling it instils, one of our porches will also offer exceptional insulation, creating a cosier space for all within.
Things will feel so much different once a porch is part of the house, the extra dimension it delivers opening new and exciting avenues. Every aspect of your porch installation will be controlled by Yorkshire Windows, capable of handling the organisation of window, door and roof fitting, electricals, internal plastering, UPVC guttering, drainpipes and panels.
A porch may not perhaps have the glitz and glamour of a conservatory or orangery, but the versatility of porches is a definite driver to buy one. Being able to store items like shoes, coats, prams etc. will free up space inside your house and allow you to get around it more easily.
Are porches subject to planning permission?
A porch will be deemed a permitted development and not require planning permission so long as it is under 3m² and not within 2 metres of any boundary that fronts a highway.
It’s important to be aware that compliance with building regulations is also necessary, regardless of whether or not a porch is subject to planning permission. Yorkshire Windows will get things clarified on your behalf so that no rules are broken.
Choosing windows for a new porch...
Extreme UPVC Windows Extreme to say the least! This UPVC window range has been specially conceived by Yorkshire Windows to attain unbeatable security and high energy ratings.
Envisage Flush Windows The flush style has never gone away; we just happen to have reinvented this classic look – modest and elegant all over.
Eclipse Aluminium Windows These are some of the slimmest aluminium windows currently in existence and offer luxury at an affordable price.
Finding the right porch door...
The main factors of consideration when looking into a door for a porch are aesthetics, security, thermal efficiency, robustness and material choice. You want a door that goes perfectly with the porch itself, of course, and the property as a whole. It could be a single or double door with or without glazed panels and decorative embellishments.
Yorkshire Windows’ stocks vibrant UPVC doors, premium composite doors and double opening French doors that are worth a place in just about any porch design.
Customise your porch
Our porches are built to last for a significant span of time, so any porch you secure from us will be a long-standing constituent of your property. In light of that, you want a porch that will never lose its appeal, which it won’t if you insist on our roofs, windows and doors being included in it. Get guidance on customisation possibilities from our team and see a 3D vision of your porch on our intelligent design software.
Two distinct tile options to assess...
Our porch roof tiles are significantly lighter than the roof tiles traditionally employed on roofs, and they are extremely easy to maintain.
If seeking an alternative to tiles, may we introduce our believable lightweight slates, perfect for porches that have a low-pitched roof and ageless in looks.
Separate to the aforementioned roof tiles, Yorkshire Windows can also fit traditional slate tiles or traditional concrete roof tiles, if they seem more suitable.
Explore attractive finishes for Extreme windows...
UPVC window finishes used to be pretty limited, but pioneering techniques have led to legions of colours being released and you can parade them on the Extreme windows in your entrance porch.
We know that you’ll uncover a finish you like, whether it’s Hazy Grey or Chartwell Green. The amount of colour options is quite staggering really.
Envisage should be up for discussion in any window debating...
What a wealth of colour there is for Envisage windows, including a host of eclectic shades, wood effects and textures. Elect for a hue that either brings the windows to prominence or makes them understated in the overall porch aesthetic without being overlooked. Every porch gets a perfect finish at Yorkshire Windows.
Aluminium finishes with an extra class...
When administering the 11-stage powder coating process that we obey to apply our finishes to the Eclipse aluminium frames, it induces strong paint adhesions and results in a quality effect.
Formulating aluminium woodgrain finishes involves a different process, given the name sublimation. Following this procedure, we’re able to fashion Oak, Rosewood and Walnut finishes that look exactly like authentic wood effects.
