Across Wales you find valley terraces, coastal towns, rural stone houses and newer estates, so access, slopes and local materials all feature in the design.

What does an orangery involve?

We build orangeries on proper foundations with insulated walls and roof perimeter, so they can be used all year as a dining room, sitting room or kitchen extension. The lantern size and the frame finish are chosen to suit the age and style of the house.

How is an orangery approved in Gwent?

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. Small single-storey rear extensions can often go ahead without an application, but the limits differ from England's and there is no larger-extension prior approval route, so we check the current Welsh rules for your house before drawings are finalised.

What can affect an orangery?

An orangery open to the house needs to meet energy rules, which limits the proportion of glazing.
Heating should be part of the house system, not a plug-in heater.

Orangeries: common questions

Does an orangery need building regulations?

Usually yes, because it is built as part of the house rather than as a separated conservatory.

How long does it take to build?

About 8 to 14 weeks on site.

Can you visit a house in Gwent to quote?

Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
