We're looking at replacing our front porch as it's rotten and am after some ideas. I've spent ages googling and can't find these type online no matter what I search for, so struggling for ideas and options.
This is the current state of it.
The house is 1920's and the black arch is original, the wooden porch added some time later.
I don't particularly like the porch so one idea would be simply to take it out back to it's original state, the issue with this is it's extremely handy for leaving packages and deliveries in which obviously nowadays is really useful.
We've had a look round the local area at some upvc ones but they they don't look great, rebuilding out of wood would be an option and would look better but we plan to stay here for a long time so want something to last for many years, after speaking to a few people it could also work out more expensive due to the amount of labour involved.
Even any ideas what to google for, I've tried arched porch, storm porch, lead roof porch, french door porch and every other combination I can think of?
