Glass verandas in Edith Weston
Aluminium and glass verandas in Edith Weston, fixed to the house properly so you can sit out whatever the weather.
A 4m × 3m aluminium and glass veranda typically costs £9,000–£14,000 supplied and fitted, and a 6m × 3m £15,000–£22,000. Side screens, lighting and heaters are priced on top. A veranda fixed to the house is treated like a single storey rear extension: usually permitted development if it stays within the extension depth and height limits, does not face a road and is not on a listed house.

Glass verandas in Edith Weston: what is involved
A veranda is an aluminium-framed roof fixed to the back wall of the house, with clear glass or polycarbonate panels and a built-in gutter, so you can sit out in the rain and the kitchen still gets its light.
Edith Weston sits on the south shore of Rutland Water, a stone village with a green and a number of substantial houses, next to St George's Barracks. Terraces, outdoor rooms and lighting designed around the views are the typical projects here.
We cover Edith Weston (LE15) and the villages around it, including North Luffenham, South Luffenham, Lyndon, Manton and Normanton.
Ground and conservation in Edith Weston
Edith Weston is on the limestone plateau above the reservoir, and most plots drain reasonably well, though clay pockets turn up. We test the ground before designing the base. Ground in Edith Weston can change within a single garden, so we dig the first post hole as a trial and set the depth of every footing from what we find.
Edith Weston has a conservation area and no Article 4 direction, so normal permitted development rules apply outside listed buildings, with natural materials the right choice in the conservation area.

Permissions in Edith Weston
- PlanningA veranda fixed to the house is treated like a single storey rear extension: usually permitted development if it stays within the extension depth and height limits, does not face a road and is not on a listed house. Open-sided verandas under 30m² are usually exempt from building regulations. Listed buildings and the Edith Weston conservation area have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: extensions
- TreesTrees in a conservation area need six weeks' notice before work, and protected trees need consent; both are free. Rutland County Council: tree works
- Building regulationsAn open-sided veranda under 30m² is usually exempt. Closing it in with glass walls can change that, so we check with Leicestershire Building Control Partnership (LBCP) first.
