Do I need planning permission in Morecambe?
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.
Homes in conservation areas, national parks, National Landscapes (formerly AONBs), the Broads and World Heritage Sites have tighter rules, so we always check the property's status and planning history before design starts.
Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).

Common questions in Morecambe
Do you cover all of Morecambe?
Yes. We cover Morecambe and the surrounding parts of Lancashire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.
Who do I contract with for an orangery extension in Morecambe?
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.
Do I need building regulations approval in Morecambe?
Yes. Almost every extension needs it, whatever the planning route. We prepare the drawings and book the inspections.
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 £2,280 to £4,280 per m² including VAT, so a 16 m² standard-spec orangery is typically £42,500 to £53,500 in Morecambe.
