Do I need planning permission?
In most cases, planning permission is not required for an orangery, as long as you comply with local authority guidelines, which we can advise you on. If you plan to sell your home in the future, it’s reassuring to know that the Leka roofing system comes with JHAI system approval, ensuring compliance and peace of mind.
Will a solid roof make my oramgery dark?
Replacing a glass roof with a solid one may slightly reduce natural sunlight, but it significantly improves insulation and energy efficiency. To maintain a bright, airy space, you can opt for roof lights or incorporate electric lighting for a well-lit and comfortable atmosphere. A fresh coat of white or light-coloured paint can also enhance brightness and reflect natural light effectively.
How long will my orangery take to be built?
Most of our orangery installations are completed within 7 to 10 days, though external factors like weather conditions can influence timelines. Since every orangery is bespoke, we will provide a tailored time estimate during your initial consultation and site visit.
If you have any other questions or need expert advice on designing your dream orangery, our team is here to help!
What is an insurance-backed guarantee?
All of our work is covered by a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, ensuring that even if we were to cease trading, your installation remains protected.
Additionally, the Leka roofing system comes with a 40-year guarantee on all components, so you can enjoy your orangery with total peace of mind for years to come.
What’s the difference between an Orangery & Conservatory?
Many people are more familiar with the term conservatory, often associating it with a high percentage of glass. In contrast, an orangery typically features a brick base, a flat perimeter roof, and a central raised lantern-style section.
Historically, orangeries were first introduced in the 17th century, originally used for growing citrus fruits indoors, making them a luxury addition to wealthy homes. Today, they bring the same elegant design and year-round usability to properties across Liverpool.
While conservatories maximise glass to let in the most natural light, they can sometimes become too warm in summer and too cold in winter. With modern advancements, such as insulated tiled roofs, many homeowners are upgrading their old conservatories to create a more comfortable, energy-efficient space.
