Questions from Stroud
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.
Should the lantern match my bifold doors?
A common choice is to match the outside colour, often anthracite. The inside can be white to keep the ceiling bright.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Stroud?
With the midsummer sun about 61.7° high at noon, roof glass in Stroud gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.

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.
