Hello Everyone,
I have just been reading this and it seems a bit excessive for what I want to achieve. I abandoned the Idea with a veranda and now wonder what if I build some pergola with a decking underneath? It is less than 30 sq meters and will not be attached to the house. The road is only to the front of the house and there is a driveway to one side of the thing I want to build and a neighbour to the other. If I make it around below 3m maximum height it should be fine? What if I attach it to the house?
My main goal is to have a bit of a dry area in the garden during wet times.
