Do Conservatories Need Planning Permission?

Although many house extensions require planning permission in the UK, conservatories can be an exception to this under certain conditions. Thankfully, there are clear regulations that determine whether or not your conservatory will require planning permission.

Are All conservatory Insulation Quilts The Same?

No! Our Low-E quilt is unique in the UK. Low-E is the ONLY breathable quilt available in the UK. Low-E is the Worlds #1 insulation quilt with over 1 billion sqft installed in over 30 countries worldwide. Over 95 % of companies in the UK use multi-layer quilts, don’t be conned by multi-foil quilts, they all contain moisture or vapor control layers due to the fact they generate condensation.

How Close Can The Garden Room Be To My Boundary?

To adhere to the permitted development rules we will construct the garden room on site as follows:

Garden rooms up to 15m2 internal floor area - Minimum 0.5m from any boundary.

Garden rooms over 15m2 to 30m2 - Minimum 1.0m from any boundary.

How Should I Prepare My Site Area?

All we ask is that the site area be clear of any obstacles (i.e. rocks, trees, shrubs, sheds etc.). It is preferable to have a level soil or grass area to install our foundation system.

We can install our garden rooms on either a flat or gently sloping site area. If your site area slopes a lot then it may need leveling before we can install the garden room.

What About The Electricity Supply?

Each garden room price includes a complete electrics package including: Consumer unit, electrical sockets, lighting and light switch. On completion of the build our qualified electrician will visit you to test the internal electrics and provide an electrical certificate in readiness for the mains connection.

To connect mains electricity from your house to the garden room, you can either use your own electrician or we can supply you with a quote to carry out the works for you.
