Housing in Wales ranges from terraced streets in the valleys and older industrial towns to stone-built homes in rural areas and modern estates around the cities.

What is 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.

  • Planning or permitted development check
  • Glazed roof lantern and windows or doors
  • Heating, electrics and decoration-ready finish

What will an orangery cost?

Do you need permission for an orangery in Colwyn Bay?

In Wales the planning rules, including what counts as permitted development, are set by the Welsh Government, and Welsh building regulations differ in places from England’s. We check both against your house before drawings are finalised, and handle party wall notices where needed.

Wales has its own permitted development rules, set by the Welsh Government.

What can affect an orangery?

  • Solar-control glass in the lantern stops summer overheating.
  • Heating should be part of the house system, not a plug-in heater.

How does the project run?

  1. Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
  2. Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
  3. Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
  4. Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
