One of the first questions Irish homeowners ask is simple: how much does a veranda cost? The honest answer is that it depends on size, roof type and finish, but you can still get a clear sense of the ranges before you ask for a quote. Here is a practical guide to veranda pricing in Ireland for 2026.
What affects the price of a veranda?
- Size: the larger the span and projection, the more frame and roofing material is needed.
- Roof type: a glass roof costs more than an insulated solid roof, and a louvered or folding roof sits at the top of the range.
- Glass options: toughened glass, laminated glass and self cleaning coatings change the price.
- Extras: integrated LED lighting, heating, sliding glass doors and side screens all add to the total.
- Installation: wall type, ground conditions and access on the day affect labour.
Typical veranda price ranges in Ireland
As a rough guide, a compact aluminium veranda with a solid roof starts at the lower end, a mid sized glass roof veranda sits in the middle, and a large veranda with a louvered or folding roof and extras like lighting and glass doors reaches the upper end. Because every home and garden is different, the most accurate way to price your project is a measured quote. You can compare roof styles on our glass verandas and folding roof verandas pages.
An example: our most popular veranda
Supply only, including VAT and delivery; fitting is quoted after a site survey. Enclosed means glass sliding doors across the front and one side, with a half aluminium, half polycarbonate wall on the other side. Bigger sizes, a glass roof and extras add to these figures, and every project is quoted individually after measuring.
Is a veranda worth the money?
A veranda adds usable living space without the cost of a full extension, and it protects your patio doors and back wall from the weather. For many homeowners it also adds kerb appeal and makes the garden usable for far more of the year, which is where the value really shows in the Irish climate.
