Making a "lean to" roof for a walkway - Part 1

  • This video follows the first part of my project to make a lean to roof over a walkway at the side of my house. It has now turned the walkway into a useful, sheltered space.
    Part 1 shows how I designed the roof and built the frame for it as well as how I chased out a channel in my brickwork for the lead flashing.
    I am a TH-cam DIYer and am no expert but have built a very solid roof. If this video has helped you with a similar project or given you the confidence to give it a try then please let me know in the comments. I also welcome constructive criticism or advice on how things can be done better.
    If you have enjoyed the video please give me a like with a thumbs up and subscribe.
    Thanks for watching

    This is brilliant. I have an old terrace house and this is so happening in my yard. 👍

    I’m building a lean to shed. Bolts for fixing the 3x3 to the concrete posts were a big help. Never seen them before.

    I know this is an old video but it popped up when I was watching something else.
    Check your local Council. This could need planning permission and if it’s a party wall, you will need your neighbours permission. Just because it’s your house and your fence it doesn’t mean you can do what you want.

    Question about drilling into the concrete posts.
    Have you had any adverse effects i.e. cracking or fixings loosening from the wind and elements over time?
    I'm thinking of doing the same thing instead of sinking more posts into the ground right against my fence.
    Great vid btw👍

    I'm thinking of building something similar at the side of my house. The problem I have is that I will be using clear plastic sheeting as the roof. However there's a black pipe coming down the side of the house. When i put the plastic sheeting around the pipe. What's the best way to make it water tight?

      Permitted development rights allow a max height of 2.5m within 2m of a boundary.. so long as the structure doesn't project forward of the principal elevation of the property.. Check out the gov planning portal.... It's worth checking with your local planning authority because some authorities have exclusions which prohibits this kind of development..
