Entrance Porches
Porches in Stockport
A well-designed porch adds storage, insulation, security and serious kerb appeal — installed across Stockport, Manchester and Cheshire by our own time-served fitters.
Why add a porch?
A porch is one of the highest-return home improvements you can make. It cuts heat loss through your front door, gives you a place for coats, boots and parcels, adds a layer of security and lifts the entire look of the front of your home. Most installs include a brand-new composite or uPVC front door as part of the build.
Styles to suit your home
Fully glazed uPVC or aluminium porches suit modern semis and detached homes. Brick-and-glass designs sit better on period and traditional properties. Dwarf walls, decorative leaded glass and matched front doors are all options — we'll show you examples of completed Stockport projects, along with our work across Greater Manchester and Cheshire, before you decide.
Planning and building regs made simple
Porches under 3m² generally fall under permitted development. We handle the planning conversation and building-regs sign-off where they're needed, so you're not chasing paperwork. Most installs are completed in 1–2 weeks from groundworks to handover.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a porch cost in Stockport?+
A fully-glazed uPVC porch typically lands between £3,000 and £6,000. Brick-built porches sit in the £6,000–£12,000 range depending on size, materials and groundworks. We provide a fixed written quote after a free home survey.
Do I need planning permission for a porch?+
Porches under 3m² and 3m high generally fall under permitted development. Conservation areas and listed buildings are stricter — we'll flag any planning requirements during the survey.
Will a porch actually make my home warmer?+
Yes. A porch creates a thermal buffer in front of your main entrance, dramatically reducing draughts and heat loss every time the door opens. Insulated floors and uPVC frames lock that performance in.
How long does a porch installation take?+
Most porches are completed in 1–2 weeks from groundworks to final glazing. Brick-built designs and complex bases can take a little longer — we give a clear timeline before starting.
Is the front door included in the price?+
Yes — our porch quotes include a composite or uPVC front door, side glazing, locks and finishing trims. No surprise extras.
