Orangeries In Dorking, Surrey

An orangery offers a wonderful blend of a traditional extension and a conservatory. Think of it as a beautifully elegant room that merges solid brickwork or stonework with large expanses of glass. Unlike conservatories, which traditionally have more glass for their walls and roofs, an orangery typically features a substantial, flat perimeter roof with a glazed lantern or large glass roof panels in the centre. This design provides a more substantial, room-like feel, often incorporating internal plasterwork around the ceiling and walls, giving you a greater sense of privacy and thermal efficiency, while still letting in plenty of light. It's a bespoke space, truly integrating with your home.

The timeline for an orangery project can vary quite a bit, as each one is a bespoke design tailored to your home and preferences. Generally, once the design is finalised and any necessary permissions are in place, the construction phase can take anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks. Factors like the size and complexity of your new orangery, the specific materials chosen, and site conditions all play a part. Our experienced team works efficiently, aiming to complete your project to the highest quality standards, with minimal disruption. We'll give you a clear estimated timeline right at the start of your journey with us.

Quality and durability are at the heart of every orangery we build. We use a fantastic range of premium materials and products to provide a truly long-lasting and beautiful space. For the solid sections, we often work with high-quality brickwork or rendered finishes that seamlessly match your existing home. Our glass elements are typically advanced, thermally efficient units, often low-E or self-cleaning, to maximise light while keeping the space comfortable. We incorporate strong, sustainable timber where suitable, and our flat roof sections are built to withstand the elements for years. Every aspect of your orangery, from the structure to the finishing touches, is chosen for its superior value and performance.
