Felt Shingle Roof Porch

A sturdy timber porch with a felt shingle roof, giving your entrance proper shelter and a smart finish.

Stepping out of an unsheltered doorway means getting caught by wind and rain before you've even left the house. It also leaves your entrance looking a bit bare. This porch gives you cover exactly where you need it, and a neater, more welcoming front door, with options to match your home.

What Keeps This Porch Standing Strong?

Each porch is handmade from Northern European Redwood and pressure treated to guard against rot and fungal attack for up to 15 years. The frame uses 95mm x 95mm posts for genuine strength.

That means a porch that copes with UK weather year after year, without asking much of you in return.

How Well Does the Felt Shingle Roof Hold Up?

The roof is built from a fibreglass base, coated in bitumen and finished with volcanic basalt granules. It's a tried-and-tested combination for weather resistance.

You get dependable protection from rain and wind, in a roof that's easy to maintain and keeps its neat, even look for years.

Which Post and Colour Options Suit Your Home?

Choose 2 or 4 posts, in half-height or full-height, depending on how much coverage you want. The frame comes in Rustic Brown or Light Green, with roof tiles in Forest Green or Slate Grey.

These combinations let you match the porch to your door and the rest of your home's exterior.

Which Width Fits Your Doorway Best?

Both versions are 1.22m deep, with a choice of 1.8m or 2.4m width. The wider option gives extra room either side of your door, handy for boots, umbrellas, or a bench.

Getting the width right now saves you wishing you'd sized up later.
