Covering Wishaw
We work in Wishaw (ML2) and the places around it, including Motherwell, Hamilton and Airdrie.
Homes in Lanarkshire
In Scotland many families extend bungalows and semis, while tenement flats bring shared ownership of roofs and walls that needs agreeing early.
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.
- Design to suit the house style
- Insulated roof perimeter with plastered pelmet
- Glazed roof lantern and windows or doors
What is the guide price for an orangery in Wishaw?

|---|---|
| Standard specification | £3,000 to £3,500 per m² |

Do you need permission for an orangery in Wishaw?
Scottish projects follow a different process from England: the council issues a building warrant before work starts and accepts a completion certificate at the end, alongside any planning permission needed. We prepare both applications.
Scotland has its own householder permitted development rules, and small single-storey rear extensions are often covered. Whatever the planning position, you need a building warrant from the council before any building work starts, and a completion certificate at the end.
What can change the price or programme?
- Timber-look aluminium or timber frames suit period houses.
- Solar-control glass in the lantern stops summer overheating.
What happens after I enquire?
- 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.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
