Porch Extensions in Dublin

Porches lift the front of your home. They keep drafts out and give you somewhere to drop coats, shoes, and the buggy. We design and build the whole thing. And because we are roofers first, the porch roof gets done properly and matched to your house. Designed, built, and priced in writing before we start.

Why a porch

What a porch adds to your home

Porch is a small build that earns its keep every day. It changes how your house looks from the road and how it feels the minute you step inside.

Kerb appeal & a proper entrance

Well-designed porch gives the front of the house a finished, welcoming look, and it is one of the very first things buyers notice.

Warmth & fewer draughts

Porch sits between the cold outside and your hall, so opening the front door no longer sends cold air straight through the house.

Space, storage & security

Somewhere for coats, shoes, school bags and parcels, plus an extra front door and lock sitting between your home and the street.

What's included

Your porch, designed and built

We take your porch from first sketch to finished build, and we build it to last rather than to look good for a year. One crew handles the whole job from groundwork to handover, including:

  • Design that suits your house, front porch or side entrance
  • Planning check, with the application handled if one is needed
  • Foundations and groundwork done properly
  • Walls in brick, block, uPVC, or timber to match your home
  • Proper roof, pitched and tiled or slated to match, or flat if it suits, flashed where it meets the house so it will not leak
  • Glazing and a secure composite or uPVC door

Every porch ends with a tidy finish, a clean site, and a proper handover. You get a written fixed price in your hand before any work starts, and our workmanship cover stands behind the build

How it works

From Inspection to Sign-Off

Most roof problems start small and quiet, then get expensive. If you have spotted any of these, it is worth getting them looked at before the next downpour.

Free inspection

We come out, get on the roof, and find exactly what is wrong.

Sign-off and aftercare

We show you what we did and stand over the work.

How it works

Porch Styles We Design And Build

No two houses are the same, so no two porches are either. Walls, roof, and door all get chosen to match what you already have.

Brick And Block

Solid brick porches on proper foundations, built to match your house brickwork as closely as we can.

uPVC And Glazed

Bright porches with big glass panels and almost no upkeep, sitting on a low wall or glazed top to bottom.

On Site

Warm wooden porches, painted or stained, better fit for older houses where plastic would look wrong.

Moving In

Sloped and tiled like your house, or flat where suits, with skylight installation if you want daylight.

  • Size and whether it’s a front or side porch

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Direct answers from an experienced, hands-on roofing professional.

Most front porches are exempt if they’re small and set back from the road, generally not more than about 2 square meters in floor area and more than 2 meters from the public road, with a tiled or slated pitched roof no higher than 4 meters, or 3 meters for any other roof. It depends on your house and location, so it’s worth checking with your local authority. We can advise and handle the application if one’s needed.

Yes. A porch adds an extra sealed space in front of your door, so when you open the door you let cold air into the porch rather than straight into the hall. It cuts draughts and helps keep the heat in.

A pitched roof, tiled or slated to match your main roof, or a flat roof if that suits the house better. Because we’re roofers, we make sure it’s properly weathered and flashed where it meets the house wall, so it won’t leak.

Usually a few weeks once the design and any planning are sorted, depending on the size, the materials and the groundwork. You’ll get a timeframe with your written quote.
