Orangeries in Wrexham, North Wales, and North West of England

A conservatory is mostly glass, with glazed walls and usually a glazed or tiled roof. An orangery has more solid structure, often with brick piers, and a flat roof around the edge with a glazed roof light in the middle.

That makes it feel more like part of the house, with better privacy and insulation, while the glass overhead still brings in plenty of light. Take a look at our conservatories page to compare.

A lantern roof is a raised glazed structure that sits in a flat roof, flooding the room below with daylight from above.

The Stratus system we use is fully thermally broken and 65% more thermally efficient than conventional aluminium roof systems, with a U-value of 1.0 across its glass options.

Yes. The solid walls and insulated flat roof keep heat in, while solar control glass overhead stops the room overheating in summer.

Stratus glass options include Ambi Sunshade Blue, which reflects 82% of solar energy, and Ambi Neutral, which reflects 68% while letting in more light. Self cleaning glass is also available.

Orangeries are one of the most versatile home extensions, making a wonderful kitchen diner, family room, dining room or home office. Because they feel like part of the house, they can open straight into your existing rooms.

Pair your orangery with French doors or aluminium bifold doors to connect it to the garden, and it becomes the room everyone wants to spend time in.

Stratus offers contemporary, two way, three way and square designs. Two way and three way styles can be up to 3m wide and 6m long, while square versions go up to 3m by 3m.

The ridge is 66% smaller than standard systems, giving a slim, elegant profile from inside and out.

Some orangeries fall under permitted development, but it depends on the size, height and position of the build, and whether your home is listed or in a conservation area. Building regulations are also likely to apply.
