Frequently Asked Questions

1. I have a Bungalow/house with low back height, can you still install it?

Yes, we will use bungalow brackets to gain additional height at the back if needed.

2. What is your lead times?

We currently have a 3-4 week lead time from the date that your order is approved. Coloured structures have a slightly longer lead time and are closer to the 4 week timescale. Please note, the above timescales can change depending on how busy we are so please check at the time of ordering.

3. Do your structures require planning permission or building regulation?

Planning permission and/or building regulations are sometimes required before a canopy, veranda or carport can be installed, this is dependent on a number of factors including the area the structure will cover, the height and whether a building is a Listed building or on designated land. We advise contacting the local planning department for the installation area for specific advice.

4. How high can your structures be?

B&B Shelters structures can be up to 3m high at the front and a maximum of 22.5 degrees (pitch) at the back.

5. How is your structures fixed to the floor?

There are two methods to fixing a our carports, canopies and verandas to the ground, method one is to bolt each post to a concrete foundation that is suitable and sufficient for the size of the structure that we are installing. These are normally a size of 600mm x 600mm x 600mm. Method two is to make a hole varying in size up to 600mm x 600mm x 600mm, once the roof sheets and main frame have been installed, backfill concrete around the post (cast in) then make good around the post.
