Porch roofing that complements Stockton-on-Tees entrances

About this service

Weather protection for a prominent entrance

A porch roof keeps rain away from the entrance while forming a visible part of the front elevation. Its projection, available wall height and relationship with the main roof help determine whether a pitched or flat design fits best. Tile or slate can give a suitable pitched porch a familiar finish. Flat designs can use an appropriate membrane system. Because the roof is small, proportion matters: an oversized profile or clumsy edge can dominate the doorway. We plan the shape and material to sit comfortably with the property.

Neat connections where the porch meets home

The wall connection must stop water running behind the new roof. We form the abutment and flashing details to suit the design, then complete outer edges and the chosen covering. Guttering or another planned discharge route keeps water from pouring onto the step every time it rains. Material matching, course layout and trim colour can all affect the final appearance. We finish these visible points carefully because the porch is often the first section of roof you and your visitors see at close range.
