Orangeries are more than a conservatory but not quite an extension and considerably less disruptive to build. Originally a conservatory would have been all glass and an orangery would have had low brick walls. Over time there has come to be little difference between the two. Whatever you choose at AllGlass will do our best to give you a light and stylish extra addition to your home.
Orangery design
You may already have an idea about how you want your orangery to look or need advise and inspiration. At AllGlass we have many photographs and plans to inspire you. In fact the choices can be over whelming that’s where the expertise of our design team can help you focus on what your needs are and what is possible and best for your home. Our design and quotation service is completely free and without obligation.
After we have some measurements our designers will draw up a computerized plan showing how the orangery will look from every angle. Once the design is approved a AllGlass surveyor will visit to take accurate measurements and decide on the position of doors and opening windows. We will find out in advance whether planning permission is needed and handle this with the local authority so you don’t need to.
Installation
When the plans and measurements are finalized we will issue a schedule of work so you know who is arriving and when. From digging the foundations, forming the base, matching brickwork, erecting frames, roof and glass fitting our courteous building team will work hard to
make it as stress free as possible.
Finishing Touches
At AllGlass we want the outside of your orangery to look outstanding but know that to make it a completely worthwhile addition to your home the interior must be extra special. You have the freedom it to match the rest of the house or create a high-tech, state of the art modern orangery. We have experts to finish plastering, flooring, and electrics to a high standard. Whatever additional fixtures and fittings you choose from under floor heating, lighting and fans, we will install, and leaving your new space clean, tidy and ready for you to move to in and enjoy. As with all our products we have colours and finishes from every shade and frames and doors that look just like timber but which need no repainting and are far more durable. Our colour match service can perfectly match literally any colour you choose no matter how unusual.
Our AllGlass glazing will make the biggest impact of your orangery. Just by changing the many gorgeous glazing options using a computer, our designers can show the range of different looks that are possible. You may want an expanse of clear glass or to add patterned or coloured top lights, integrated leaded lights or use beveled glass to add depth. Side panels and doors can be plain or match top lights. Getting it just right is so important. Our team will work with you to make sure you see how many different combinations and looks there are enabling you to make a fully informed choice. The beauty of the computer screen is you can keep going till you find the right one!
