Local to Yateley

Postcode districts we cover around Yateley include GU46. Neighbouring towns we cover include Fleet (4 miles), Farnborough (5 miles), Aldershot (7 miles), Basingstoke (12 miles).

Sandhurst, in Berkshire, is roughly 2 miles from Yateley and also on our list. In the South East, plenty of houses have already been extended once, which makes checking the remaining permitted development allowance an important early step.

Do I need planning permission in Yateley?

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.

The planning position for a specific Yateley address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.

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).

Is an orangery extension right for your house?

  • Those who want daylight without overheating
  • Homeowners replacing an older conservatory
  • Period and detached houses with a garden view

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.

    Our team builds the extension, keeps you updated weekly and finishes with building control sign-off.

Common questions in Yateley

Can I see a price before committing to anything?

Yes. The guide prices on this page are adjusted for Yateley, and the guide-price tool gives a range for your own size. After the survey you get a written price before anything is agreed.

How long does an orangery extension take to build in Yateley?

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 Yateley?

Yes. We cover Yateley and the surrounding parts of Hampshire. Site visits are free and there is no obligation.

What is the difference between an orangery and a conservatory?

An orangery has a solid roof perimeter with a central lantern and more solid wall, so it is warmer and more like a room. A conservatory is mostly glass. Building regulations treat a heated orangery joined to the house as an extension.

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.
