Verandahs
Verandahs in western Victoria
A verandah changes the front of the house and makes the back of it usable. Ours are designed around the existing roof line and eave height so they read as part of the home rather than something bolted on afterwards.

Licensed builder
Simon Walshe, registered domestic builder CDB-U 102226. The person who quotes the job runs the job.
Council approvals managed
Where a permit is required we prepare the documentation, lodge it and see it through to sign off. It is written into the quote.
Matched to the existing roof
Pitch, fascia height and colour matched so the verandah sits with the house, including on period homes.
Wrap-around and return sections
Corners, returns and stepped runs are all designed on site so the line carries around the building.
Your options
Bullnose and curved
The traditional look for weatherboard and Victorian-era homes.
Skillion
Single pitch off a low eave, the usual answer where head height is tight.
Flat
Modern, low profile, easy to run along a long wall.
Insulated roofing
Cuts heat and rain noise in a verandah used as a sitting area.

Common questions
- Can you build a verandah on an older weatherboard home?
- Yes. We check the existing structure and footing conditions on site and design the fixings and posts around what is actually there.
- Will it darken the rooms behind it?
- It can, so we work out the aspect during the design and use translucent sheeting or a higher pitch where light matters.
- Is a heritage overlay a problem?
- Not usually, it just changes the paperwork. We handle the planning and building documentation where an overlay applies.
