Homes in the North West

The North West has long rows of Victorian terraced houses in its towns and cities, alongside inter-war semis and post-war estates, so rear extensions, dormer lofts and kitchen extensions are common projects.

What do you get with an orangery?

An orangery is a single-storey extension with brick piers or walls, large windows and a glazed lantern set into a solid, insulated roof. It sits between a conservatory and a full extension: lighter than an extension, warmer and more solid than a conservatory.

  • Design to suit the house style
  • Planning or permitted development check
  • Heating, electrics and decoration-ready finish

What is the guide price for an orangery in Barrow-in-Furness?

How is an orangery approved in Barrow-in-Furness?

English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.

In England a single-storey rear extension can often go ahead under permitted development: up to 3 m deep on an attached house or 4 m on a detached one, no higher than 4 m, with eaves no higher than 3 m within 2 m of a boundary.

What can change the price or programme?

  • Timber-look aluminium or timber frames suit period houses.
  • Heating should be part of the house system, not a plug-in heater.

From first call to completion

  1. Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
  2. Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
  3. Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
  4. Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
