Questions from Helensburgh
What is the difference between an orangery and a conservatory?
A conservatory has a mostly glazed roof; an orangery has a mostly solid roof with a lantern in the middle and usually more solid wall. Orangeries are easier to keep comfortable year round.
Can I add a lantern to my existing orangery roof?
If the roof has a suitable opening and upstand, yes. If not, the roof needs structural alteration first, which is a job for a builder with an engineer's input.
How quickly can I get a roof lantern in Helensburgh?
Stock sizes are typically ready in 5–10 working days, made-to-measure in 3–4 weeks, plus delivery. Your quote gives the date for G84.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Helensburgh?
We can quote for fitting where we have cover. Send your postcode and photos of the roof and kerb, and we will confirm before quoting.
