Homes in Yorkshire and the Humber
Yorkshire has a strong mix of stone terraces, red-brick semis and modern estates, plus conservation areas in many historic towns and villages.
What does an orangery involve?
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?
What orangeries typically cost. These are guide ranges; the written quote for your house replaces them.

| Standard specification | £3,000 to £3,500 per m² |
| Good specification | £3,500 to £4,100 per m² |

Planning and building rules in Harrogate
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 should Harrogate homeowners check first?
- 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
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
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.
Can it be used in winter?
Yes. It is insulated and heated like any other room.
Do you work in Harrogate?
Yes. Harrogate is within our coverage for orangeries, along with nearby Yeadon and Guiseley.
