If you are looking for an oak frame porch kit, this cost guide will help you develop an initial budget and plan for associated costs.
Final prices will vary by location and constructions costs.
Oak Frame Porch Kit – Initial cost
There are two types of porch packages:
- Supply only kit
- Supply and fit kit
Lets take a look at each to learn more
Oak Frame Porch Kit – Supply Only
A self – Construct package would include the delivery of the porch kit, along with plans. The customer takes it from there.
The obvious advantage of constructing your own porch kit is what you’d save from reducing the porch installation cost. On average, most people will save between £1,000 and £3,000 depending on the scope of the project and who does the majority of the work.
The price of the oak frame porch is determined by two things: the size of the structure and the cost to deliver the porch to your home.
If you are considering a self-installation, ask if the quoted price includes delivery.
If it does not, get a delivery quote in writing.
The porch assembly has 4 main elements :
- Groundworks—This will cost approx £150-200 sqm, £1000.00
- Oak Framed porch kit— £3,000-6,000
- Tiling— £1000-£2,000
- Delivery – £250-500 depending on location
Standard Porch Kit Packages
A standard Porch kit package typically includes the following:
- Detailed cad drawing
- Oak frame
- oak pegs for fixing
- softwood treated feather edge cladding (where relevant)
- softwood studding material
- softwood rafters
Standard packages can vary greatly from company to company, so ask specifically what it includes.
To save money, many homeowners choose to handle the balance of the project themselves, including the completion of the groundworks, electrical work, and any tiling or paving.
On average, most folks can save several thousands of pounds doing this.
As a general rule most standard oak frame porch packages will cost between £1,000 and £5,000.
Most people will spend another £2000-4000 on porch accessories, roofing materials, electrical work and paving.
Supply and Fit Oak Framed Porch Packages
The overwhelming advantage of a turn-key installation is convenience.
The oak framed porch company handles all of the above, plus these details:
- Hiring contractors
- Getting bids
- Scheduling and overseeing their work
The customer doesn’t need to oversee or manage any aspect of the project.
Many customers find it worth the investment to let someone else handle everything—not to mention the added peace of mind knowing that there is only one company responsible for the project.
On average, turn-key oak frame porch projects cost £5,000–£12,000.
Projects that require extensive roofing work, flashing kits, or other elaborate elements can cost much more. Other things you may consider are covered in these articles below
