Should I build an orangery or conservatory?

Whether you get a conservatory or orangery depends on what you plan to use your space for.

The main difference between them is that orangeries are more substantial, sitting somewhere in between a conservatory and a proper extension. They’re usually built out of brick pillars and have a solid roof, which can either be made of glass or be fully tiled like a standard roof. 

The pros of an orangery include:

1. Their brick base helps them blend in better with your property 
2. They’re more energy efficient than conservatories
3. They’re considered more aesthetic, and add more value to your property

On the other hand, the pros of getting a conservatory include:

1. They’re highly customisable and come in a large range of designs
2. They allow more natural light to flood your home than orangeries do
3. They’re usually more affordable to install than orangeries

Other conservatory FAQs

How much do conservatory builders cost to hire?

How much you end up spending on your new conservatory depends on a range of factors, including the conservatory style, the type of roof you want (glass, polycarbonate or tiled), the conservatory style (lean-to, Victorian, Edwardian, gable-end), and where you live in the UK. In general, you can expect to pay anywhere between £20,000 and £60,000 on a new conservatory. Orangeries start at around £45,000 and can cost upwards of £80,000.

For more information about conservatory and orangery prices, read our 2026 conservatory replacement cost guide. Or, if you only need to replace your conservatory roof, read our 2026 conservatory roof replacement cost guide.

Do I need planning permission for a conservatory or orangery?

You generally don’t need planning permission if the conservatory covers less than half the land around your house, stays lower than your existing roof, and isn't built forward of the main property line. 

Orangeries are subject to the same rules as single storey extensions. To avoid applying for planning permission for your orangery, you’ll need to ensure it falls under the permitted development rights outlined on the Planning Portal website.

For more information, read our planning permission guide, or ask a local conservatory installer for advice.

What questions should I ask a conservatory builder before hiring?

Always ask if they have valid public liability insurance, how many years of experience they have, and whether they use fully insured subcontractors. You should also request a clear project timeline and a complete, transparent price breakdown to help you manage your budget accurately.
