New Pergolas and Verandas
At Lancashire Double Glazing, we understand that creating an inviting outdoor area can transform your home. Two popular options for achieving this are pergolas and verandas. While they may seem similar, these structures serve different purposes and offer unique benefits.
Whether you’re seeking a modern pergola for summer shade or a year-round veranda for added comfort, Lancashire Double Glazing can help you design and install a solution tailored to your lifestyle. Every project is crafted with precision, high-quality materials, and attention to detail so you can enjoy an outdoor space that looks stunning and lasts for years to come.
Enhance your home, elevate your garden, and make the most of outdoor living with a pergola or veranda from Lancashire Double Glazing.
Understanding Pergolas
What is a Pergola?
A pergola is an outdoor structure typically characterised by its open-top design, consisting of vertical posts or pillars supporting a framework of crossbeams and open lattice. This allows for partial sunlight and air circulation while providing a sense of enclosure without complete coverage.
Uses of Pergolas
- Shaded Seating Areas: Pergolas are often used to create shaded spaces for outdoor seating. They provide a comfortable spot to relax, read, or enjoy meals with family and friends.
- Climbing Plants: The open lattice design is perfect for supporting climbing plants, such as wisteria or clematis, which can add beauty and shade as they grow.
- Outdoor Entertaining: Pergolas can create a stunning backdrop for outdoor gatherings, making them an ideal space for entertaining guests.
- Garden Pathways: They can also be used as decorative walkways, guiding you through your garden while providing a touch of elegance.
Understanding Verandas
What is a Veranda?
A veranda is a roofed outdoor space that is typically attached to the house, offering complete coverage and protection from the elements. Unlike pergolas, verandas provide a more enclosed environment, allowing for comfortable outdoor living regardless of the weather.
Uses of Verandas
- Year-Round Enjoyment: Verandas allow you to enjoy the outdoors in any season, providing shelter from rain, sun, and wind. This makes them perfect for year-round relaxation and family gatherings.
- Extended Living Space: They effectively extend your indoor living space outdoors, providing an area for dining, lounging, or even working.
- Design Flexibility: Modern verandas come in various designs and materials, offering flexibility in style. You can choose options like polycarbonate roofing for a sleek look, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your home.
- Personalisation: With features like sliding glass doors, LED lighting, and side panels, verandas can be tailored to suit your specific needs and preferences, creating a unique outdoor retreat.
Traditional Differences
While both pergolas and verandas enhance outdoor spaces, their primary differences lie in structure and functionality:
- Coverage: Pergolas offer partial coverage, allowing sunlight and air to flow through, while verandas provide complete protection from the elements.
- Design: Pergolas have a more open and airy design, suitable for gardens or pathways, whereas verandas are typically attached to homes and can serve as an extension of indoor living areas.
- Usage: Pergolas are often used for creating shaded areas for plants and seating, whereas verandas are ideal for year-round outdoor living and entertaining.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS
Very pleased with the end product.
Carly and her team were first class from start to finish and I would highly recommend anyone to use this company for all there building and glazing needs. Top class service, thanks again Carly!
We would definitely recommend them to other people.
For reference I have built and converted homes for over 30 years now and never had these issues before.
I would fully recommend LDG to anyone.
Each window and door I needed was a different and bespoke size, and every one arrived on site and fitted perfectly, so much so that I am currently in the process of placing new orders with LDG for phase 2 of my build. Very competitively priced and also with a quick turnaround, they were delivered on time.
Highly recommended!
This is a simple 3m by 3.5m extension — two windows, a lantern skylight, and a set of double doors. We were told it would take a matter of weeks. Instead, we've had long periods with no one on site, poor communication throughout, and 3 months on there are still key elements left incomplete.
We're still waiting on:
Tiling to the exterior shell and steps.
Electrical issues (switches not working, spotlights incorrectly positioned).
Damage to the paintwork on the newly installed door and the door not shutting correctly.
Window and door frame finishing.
It has been up to us to chase subcontractors, manage timelines, and clean up after people — none of which we expected when paying a professional company to do a turnkey job.
I’m posting this review in the hope it spurs LDG into finally delivering on the project. We were promised a stress-free, quick build. It has been anything but.
Have used LDG for years, but their after sales service seems to be sadly lacking.
Had windows fitted no problems, but in less than a year one pane had failed, now here comes the comedy show of errors/not being bothered.
First engineer visit to assess fault- no show.
Second visit, faulty window measured and replacement confirmed.
Third visit, cancelled on day of appointment due to faulty replacement (days holiday taken)
Fourth visit, wrong sized window pane brought by fitter.( another days holiday taken)
Please reach out for a solution, starting to think that LDG couldn’t find organise a drinking session in a brewery.
Highly recommended
No high pressure sales technique just good advice and a good price,
Surveying done professionally, both John and Calum fitted the windows to a very good standard, turned up when they said they would and tidied up afterwards.
The plasterer and the sealer were pretty good also.
Would highly recommend LDG.
Signed up and paid deposit, salesman said doubted planning permission needed.
Then huge delay till go ahead.
Builders and fitters great.
Then all went wrong with plasterer that could not plaster!!
Totally ruined.
Then 2 guys came on separate occasions to rectify mistakes.
Still not great.
Cost us alot of money.For a botch job.
Then chased by manager ti pay final amount, No discount and slapped with extra £600,survey fee.
Our conservatory still not right.
Very sad, to put this review together.
THINK BEFORE YOU ORDER FROM
LANCASHIRE DOUBLE GLAZING.
SIMPLE CORDIAL BUSINESS TASK OF INFORMING -UPDATING A SICK PENSIONOR. THAT HE WILL BE HONOURED AND HAVE HIS INSTALLMENTS ON SCHEDULE . ABSOLUTE DISGUSTING ATTITUDE BY LDG.
Highly recommend
The installer Harry was just as professional. Arrived on time, got the job done in a timely manner and left the place clean after. All round great service and would recommend them to anyone asking about doors or windows.
The window fitters Paul and Lauren were excellent. Professional, friendly constantly keeping me in the loop of what they were doing on the day and making sure I agreed. They are an asset to the company. If you want windows/doors just go to the best and that really is LDG. Outstanding!!!
We asked for 30 min notification prior to turning up on three separate occasions and not once did that happen. One day they didn't turn up at all. Once installed they looked great from a distance but when you got closer it was a mess. I'd probably be hopeless at using silicone - but so was whoever did this one. I think 3 out of 6 windows needed silicone taking off and redoing. After the panelling was added and re silicone it did look so much better and they wasted no time in getting things sorted out once notified.
The welds on the frames are somewhat visible where the white has bled on the top of the grey. Most frames covered in transfer . Which all eventually can be filled in with a paint pen and the transfer can be rubbed off with a bit of elbow grease. They shouldn't really leave manufacturers before this is done but that's just my opinion. Some frames were scraped and scratched and handles scratched . These were flagged and these was rectified.
Workmen we're polite and friendly and very easy to get on with. They cleaned up after themselves every shift and worked hard to get things done.
The back door wouldn't lock at all. Had to leave completely unlocked overnight until someone could come and check it. Had to be readjusted and is now fine.
One of the panes of glass on the patio door 'shattered' during installation so we waited around 4 days after the installation was complete for a replacement. Once again no 30 min warning just turned up at the door. As soon as this piece of glass was fitted - like literally 2 whole minutes of leaving the house - the phone then rang from the office asking to settle the invoice . Which is completely and utterly rude to be asking for money after all the crap that went wrong without checking the pane.
Good job we didn't pay as the replacement glass we got had a massive scratch on the inside of the double glazing to which we waited another 2 to 3 days for that replacement.
Finally almost 3 weeks from start date we was at 100% , the windows and doors look brilliant now and it was a definite improvement over how it was before we started. Ultimately when you spend this much money you just expect things to be perfect and right the first time. I can't help but think we could have saved a couple thousand pounds and got the same result if not better somewhere else. It's unfair to give any lower than a 3 and I can't find reason to give any more also.
So I would say use at your own peril but please please check the work over and over again. In 20 years time - if they last that long - I probably wouldn't use this company again unfortunately and I wouldn't recommend to a friend or family . Maybe we just got a bad wave of hiccups based on the other reviews but that's my personal opinion.
