Orangery extensions in Tottenham
From the first sketch to final sign-off, we plan and build orangery extensions in Tottenham and the surrounding Greater London area.
- Guide price in TottenhamFrom £39,000 inc VAT
- PlanningSame limits as single-storey rear; glazing checked for building regs
- Build time10–16 weeks on site
- Postcode districtsN9, N13, N15, N17, N18
What we take care of
- Aluminium or timber lantern and full-height glazing
- Thermal calculations where glazing is generous
- Foundations, walls and insulated perimeter roof
- Design of piers, roof perimeter and lantern proportions
- 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.
Planning rules that apply in Tottenham
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.
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.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).
Working in Tottenham
We cover Tottenham and the postcode districts N9, N13, N15, N17, N18, N22. Nearby, we also take on projects in Edmonton (2 miles), Harringay (2 miles), Palmers Green (2 miles), Wood Green (2 miles).
London's housing is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many with a rear outrigger and a side return, and 1930s semis in the outer boroughs. Conservation areas are common, so the planning check comes first.

Orangery extension questions answered
Will my neighbours in Tottenham be involved?
If a planning application or prior approval is needed, the council notifies neighbours. If the work is on or near a shared boundary, party wall notices may also be needed.
Who do I contract with for an orangery extension in Tottenham?
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 Tottenham?
On site, typically 10 to 16 weeks once approvals are in place. Before that, allow 6–12 weeks design and approvals.
How much does an orangery cost?
Our guide range is about £3,120 to £5,850 per m² including VAT, so a 16 m² standard-spec orangery is typically £58,000 to £73,000 in Tottenham.
Does an orangery need planning permission?
It follows the same size limits as other single-storey extensions. In England many fit within permitted development or prior approval; others need an application.
