Orangeries

Orangeries are a classic extension style that has become incredibly popular since the turn of the century. They are colloquially described as being the ‘middle-ground’ between conservatories and house extensions, taking the best elements from both. You get a bright and airy social space for the whole family, without compromising on privacy and security. It will feel like a true extension of your home.

Orangeries can be used for a variety of different purposes. Rather than limiting yourself to a few options, orangery extensions can essentially operate as any room you may already have in your home, with the added benefit on increased light and air. Use them as a primary dining area, a lounge, secondary social space, home office or even as a kitchen. The possibilities are endless with a Leekes orangery.

Being an incredibly popular home improvement option, potential buyers will also be attracted to a property that has a new orangery fitted. With this, installing one of these bespoke extensions is a superb way of improving your house’s kerb appeal. If the time does come for you to move to a new home, you will receive much more interest, which could even lead to you receiving more than market value.

Our orangeries are fantastically thermally efficient. Replacing portions of the glazing with thicker brickwork can drastically enhance the heat retention. When coupled with a stunning lantern roof, our orangeries will do a superb job of trapping your home’s natural warmth. This will prove especially helpful during winter, as you’ll find the orangery will remain at the optimal temperature.

All our orangeries are made bespoke to order. Before beginning the build, a member of the Leekes team will survey your home. Doing this allows us to produce an orangery with brickwork that completely unifies with the rest of your home, regardless of how old your property is. With this, your new extension will feel seamlessly connected to the rest of your home, delivering sleek and stunning aesthetics.

Unlike older extensions, our orangeries require very little maintenance to look and perform their best. The high performance uPVC roofline will never warp or bow, meaning you won’t be spending excessive periods of time cleaning the guttering. All that’s required from the homeowner is an occasional clean of the glazing and uPVC, with particular attention on any moving components that can become dusty.
