Make an EnquiryThe main difference between an orangery and a conservatory is the amount of glazing used within the structure. Traditionally conservatories are made up of a glass roof, a glazed structure, and a brick dwarf wall. On the other hand, orangeries traditionally have a flat roof with a central glass lantern, a brick structure, and large, glazed windows. However, the difference between the two glazed extensions has blurred over the last few years due to the flexibility homeowners have when it comes to designing them. With tiled conservatory roofs, fully glazed structures, and roof lanterns surging in popularity, homeowners are mix and matching features from both styles of glazed extensions, to create something completely unique to them.
What are glazed extentions?In most cases, you do not need planning permission for a conservatory, as long as it meets certain criteria. These include:
1. The conservatory does not exceed 50% of the total land area around the original house.
2. The conservatory is not higher than the highest part of the existing roof.
3. The conservatory is not more than 4 meters high at the highest point of the roof, and does not extend more than 4 meters from the rear wall of the original house (for a detached house) or 3 meters (for a semi-detached or terraced house).
4. The conservatory does not have a balcony, veranda, or raised platform.
5. The conservatory is built at ground level.
