Covering Radcliffe

Our coverage around Radcliffe (M26) also includes Whitefield, Prestwich and Bury.

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?

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.

  • Foundations, brick piers and insulated base
  • Insulated roof perimeter with plastered pelmet
  • Glazed roof lantern and windows or doors

Planning and building rules in Radcliffe

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 Radcliffe homeowners check first?

  • An orangery open to the house needs to meet energy rules, which limits the proportion of glazing.
  • Timber-look aluminium or timber frames suit period houses.

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. Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
  4. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
