If your home is looking a little tired, a new house porch is a great way to modernise and upgrade your exterior. They’re a stylish addition to any style of property and offer many practical benefits.
Because house porches are small, they aren’t very expensive. They’re an easy way to give the exterior of your home a facelift on a budget.
Find out more about the many benefits that porches offer by reading our quick guide.
A Welcoming Entrance
A new house porch can really add a welcoming touch to your front door. Kerb appeal is greatly improved and you’ll reap the benefits of your new home addition every time you return home.
Increase Value
A house porch will increase the size of your property – which matters, even if it’s only by a little bit. Porches are a desirable feature that many buyers find attractive.
Extra Space
Every home could benefit from a little bit of extra space. Your house porch will be a great place to store items like umbrellas, shoes and coats. You can also leave muddy shoes in the porch to save tracking dirt inside the house.
Security
Adding an extra door to enter the property serves as a security measure. Opportunist thief’s will be much less likely to try and break through two doors. Classic PVC put your security first, so our products come with security features as standard. You can also add extra security features to your house porch to further deter intruders.
Improve Energy Efficiency
It’s a minor detail, but by closing your porch door before opening the door to the house, your home will retain a little more heat.
If your property is a little older and is prone to draughts, you’ll feel an even bigger benefit. The added insulation of a porch will stop heat escaping and could end up reducing your heating bills.
Planning Permission
The great thing about porches is that if they don’t exceed a size of 3 square metres, they don’t require planning permission under the permitted development rights. This will reduce the building costs and mean that you can crack on constructing it without delay.
House porches aren’t very large projects. They can be planned and installed relatively quickly and with minimal fuss.
