Orangery style living spaces

You’ll love the way our orangeries provide an enhanced sense of space, whilst keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer. An orangery extension offers homeowners a valuable additional room that can be customised to your requirements; from bifolding or French doors to decorative interior lighting and reflective glass.

We offer a home visit design consultation, helping you to make informed decisions regarding the wide range of styles, colours and design features of your new orangery.

Energy efficient Orangeries

Originally designed to grow and protect valuable citrus trees in the 17th Century, modern orangeries have come a long way! Our orangeries utilise our 70mm uPVC A rated envirowindow® frames and uPVC thermally clad aluminium glazing bars as standard.

Do you need permission for an orangery?

Orangeries often fall under the category of a house extension, and the regulations governing extensions typically apply to orangery construction as well. Factors such as the size of the orangery, its height, proximity to property boundaries, and impact on the surrounding area will be considered when determining whether planning permission is necessary. Conservation areas, listed buildings, or properties located in areas with specific planning restrictions may require additional approvals

Is an orangery the same as a sunroom?

While there are similarities between an orangery and a sunroom, they are not the same. An orangery and a sunroom are both types of home extensions that incorporate elements of glass, allowing natural light to enter the space. However, there are distinct design differences between the two. An orangery typically features more brickwork and has a solid roof with a lantern or skylights. This design provides a more substantial and integrated extension to the house.

    Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Orangeries

    We’re sure you’ve got some questions or queries about our charming orangery collection. If you can’t find an answer below, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

    What’s the difference between a conservatory and an orangery?

    Traditionally, the main difference between an orangery and a conservatory was that orangeries featured brick pillars and a lantern roof, giving the appearance of a full-blown extension whereas conservatories were usually made from glass or polycarbonate panels. Nowadays both orangery and conservatory style extensions can be highly customised to suit your needs.

    How much does a new orangery cost?

    Every Ideal orangery project is custom-made to accommodate your home and its specific needs - therefore, our prices are completely bespoke.

Once the survey is complete, an installation co-ordinator will be in touch within 3 weeks to confirm an installation date that suits both parties. Fitting schedules remain flexible due to unforeseen circumstances, such as the weather.
