ORANGERIES

If you are looking to add something completely unique and original to your home, look no further than our Orangery design and installation package. We have the experience and expertise to help guide you through the process, from creating designs based on your ideas and concepts, through to product selection and installation, bringing your dreams into a very real reality.

Orangeries are a popular alternative to traditional home extensions often not requiring planning approval, allowing you to create a new luxurious space with maximum light and outside influences whilst maintaining a substantial structure and thermal efficiency. Orangeries offer a unique blend of outdoor living with indoor comforts, and are the perfect addition to any living area within a working home.

Design your orangery to match the current exterior of your home and keep it traditional, or opt for a contemporary feel and add a modern twist to your living space. We will help you design your orangery to maximise the light that is allowed into your home, and encourage you to take advantage of all the products we have on offer, including our blinds and shutters ranges to ensure your new glass room is perfect for your lifestyle and will grow with your home and family.

There are many designs you can opt for when thinking about an orangery, and sometimes it is difficult to know where to begin. If this is the case for you, do not worry as we can arrange a consultation with one of our expert installers who will be able to suggest designs and products based on how you are intending the space to be used. We can assist you in creating your orangery in a material of your choosing, and will advise you of the pros and cons of each regarding the specifics of your design.

We use selected local architects and engineers to assist us where necessary in the design of your orangery, ensuring you get the peace of mind that your orangery is built to last, and is constructed in a way that not only befits your existing property, but maximises the potential of your new space. Create an vision of light with a bespoke amalgamation of products to give you a truly unique design!

Structural Design

Depending on your existing home and what it is your want to create in addition to it, the first step is ensuring that we can create what you want within existing building regulations and guidelines. The more we invest in this stage, the simpler the process tends to be in the long run, ensuring we ascertain any potential problems that may arise throughout planning and installation.

To ensure your orangery is weather worthy throughout the year, we need to design your orangery to have a substantial frame and roof design, especially important if you have an open-plan layout in your home. At this stage, depending on the size and scale of your project, we will advise you whether we feel we need to include any architects or engineers in the development stage. If we do, we have a range of professionals we work with regularly, so you needn't worry about how to find this expertise, and we will do all the leg work.

Aesthetic Design

Once the design has been finalised and checked by experts and all parties involved are happy with the structural integrity, we can then progress onto the design stage, where we can finalise which products we will be using in your orangery and how best to take advantage of them.

This stage will be largely driven by your imagination, we will just assist you in getting all those ideas into a comprehensive design on paper, which we can then adjust and change as often as you would like throughout this stage.

We will endeavour to supply you with as many design choices as possible, advise on the pros and cons of material options, and seek new innovative ways to use our products which will enhance your orangery to its fullest potential. Once you have decided on the final design for your new space, we will then get this drawn up into a scale diagram if necessary, before we move onto the installation phase.

Installation

Once the products have been manufactured and delivered, we will start your installation at a time that suits you. Depending on the complexity and scale of your product, this may take any length of time, and if necessary we will ensure that architects or engineers are also on hand to ensure the smooth running of the installation.

This is the part where you get to see all your ideas come to life piece by piece, and watch your new space grow into a work of art. The addition of the products one by one is always an exciting time, and our expert installers can talk you through the process as it is happening, and show you exactly how to use the space to the fullest advantage.

Final Product

Once the installation is completed, your new orangery will be ready to use as soon as our installers and their tools have left for the last time! Before they go, they will explain to you exactly how the products you've chosen work, any manual operations you will need to be aware of, and any maintenance they would suggest.

We do have an aftercare package for all our products you have peace of mind that we will still be on hand if there are any problems in the future!

All that's left for you to do it make your new bespoke orangery part of your home, and enjoy the stunning views that it opens up to be enjoyed by you and the rest of your family.
