Will the council need to approve it?
In Scotland, householder permitted development rules (Class 1A for single-storey ground-floor extensions and Class 1B for extensions of more than one storey) allow some smaller extensions without a planning application, within limits on depth, height and distance from the boundary. Conservation areas and listed buildings are more restricted. Separately, almost every extension needs a building warrant from the council before work starts.
The planning position for a specific Annan address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Where work affects a shared wall or a neighbour's land, we agree access, protection and making good with your neighbour in writing before work starts.
Building close to a public sewer needs the agreement of Scottish Water, which we check during design.
Applications are decided by your council as planning authority.
Covering Annan
Site visits are available across Annan (DG12). Nearby, we also take on projects in Dumfries (15 miles), Stranraer (71 miles).
For homes towards Scottish Borders, Hawick is around 34 miles away. Scotland's housing includes sandstone villas, terraces and tenements in the cities and plenty of post-war and modern houses and bungalows elsewhere. A building warrant is needed before work starts.
What is included
- Design of piers, roof perimeter and lantern proportions
- Opening into the main house
- Thermal calculations where glazing is generous
- Aluminium or timber lantern and full-height glazing
- Heating sized for the glass area
The lantern-to-roof ratio sets the character. A wider solid perimeter gives a calmer, more room-like space and hides downlights and speakers; a bigger lantern feels brighter but needs more care against summer heat.

Common questions in Annan
How long does an orangery extension take to build in Annan?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–12 weeks design and approvals.
Can I see a price before committing to anything?
Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Annan, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.
Do I need building regulations approval in Annan?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. In Scotland that means a building warrant before work starts.
Will an orangery be too hot in summer?
Not if it is designed with solar-control glass, a solid perimeter and ventilation. We size the lantern and opening vents with that in mind.
How much does an orangery cost?
Our guide range is about £2,350 to £4,410 per m² including VAT, so a 16 m² standard-spec orangery is typically £43,500 to £55,000 in Annan.
