A veranda suits Canterbury's period housing because it borrows rather than competes: a slim glass roof off the rear elevation keeps the architecture in charge and the patio dry, and it usually sits comfortably inside permitted development.
A veranda is the classic way to cover a patio: an aluminium frame against the house with a glass or polycarbonate roof, keeping the rain off without losing the light. It turns the strip outside your back doors into usable space ten months of the year, and it's the natural base for glass sliding doors if you later want the full garden-room effect.

★★★★★Ben LewisOrdered and installed inside a week
Simple ordering process, delivery and installed within the week, very easy to recommend.
★★★★★Sam CreedCarport, Tunbridge Wells
Chose Eden Grove because they're accredited installers and the build quality clearly justified it. No pressure, every question answered, and the powder-coated finish looks high-end.
Want yours priced properly?
The survey is free and settles the three things that decide the job: ground fixings, water run-off and height. No obligation either way.

The detail
The ranges we fit
Glass or polycarbonate roof?
Glass looks better, lasts longer and stays clearer; polycarbonate costs less and softens glare. South-facing verandas want ventilation or shading designed in either way, because a glass roof works like a greenhouse in summer.
Can a veranda be enclosed later?
Yes. Glass sliding doors and fixed panels retrofit onto the Deponti systems, which is the most common upgrade we fit. Starting open and enclosing later is a sensible way to spread the cost.
How is a veranda different from a pergola?
A veranda is fixed to the house with a solid translucent roof. A pergola can be freestanding and often has an adjustable louvred roof. Which is right depends on whether you want maximum light or maximum control.
