Covering Holyhead
Alongside Holyhead, we also cover Llangefni, Caernarfon (19 miles to the south-east) and Bangor.
Homes in Gwynedd and Anglesey
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 goes into 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 and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
- Glazed roof lantern and windows or doors
- Heating, electrics and decoration-ready finish

Planning and building rules in Holyhead
Planning decisions in Wales are made by the local council, using permitted development rules set by the Welsh Government rather than England’s. Building regulations in Wales have their own approved documents, and the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies to work on shared walls and boundaries.
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?
- Timber-look aluminium or timber frames suit period houses.
- Solar-control glass in the lantern stops summer overheating.
How does the project run?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
