Local to Market Drayton
Site visits are available across Market Drayton (TF9). Nearby, we also take on projects in Wellington (14 miles), Telford (15 miles), Shrewsbury (18 miles), Oswestry (25 miles).
Across the West Midlands, brick-built semis with long gardens are common, so single-storey and two-storey rear extensions are popular choices.
Included in a typical project
- Foundations, walls and insulated perimeter roof
- Design of piers, roof perimeter and lantern proportions
- Aluminium or timber lantern and full-height glazing
- Heating sized for the glass area
- Thermal calculations where glazing is generous
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.

Do I need planning permission in Market Drayton?
In England a glazed or orangery-style extension follows the same size limits as any single-storey rear extension: 3 m or 4 m without an application, or up to 6 m and 8 m through prior approval. Building regulations limit glazing to about a quarter of the new floor area plus the openings it replaces, unless whole-house calculations show the design still performs.
Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.
Building regulations approval is separate from planning. In England you can use the council's building control team or a registered building control approver; a full plans application gets the drawings checked before work starts, and the inspector signs the work off with a completion certificate.
If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Common questions in Market Drayton
Who do I contract with for an orangery extension in Market Drayton?
Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which designs and manages the project and the build teams who carry it out.
How long does an orangery extension take to build in Market Drayton?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–12 weeks design and approvals.
Do you cover all of Market Drayton?
Yes. We cover Market Drayton and the surrounding parts of Shropshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
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 £2,330 to £4,360 per m² including VAT, so a 16 m² standard-spec orangery is typically £43,000 to £54,500 in Market Drayton.
