Annika Properties can assist you in adding a conservatory to your home. A conservatory is a simple structure typically constructed using materials like UPVC, timber, or aluminium. Whether or not you need planning permission for the construction of your conservatory depends on the specific details of your property. However, it’s important to note that building control regulations still apply, similar to those for porches. To determine if planning permission is necessary, it is advisable to consult your local planning authority.

Before commencing construction, it is essential to notify the building control department. They may conduct inspections to ensure that your conservatory meets the required standards for safety, energy efficiency, and ventilation. Additionally, if your conservatory serves as an extension to your home, it can impact your home’s energy efficiency rating. In such cases, Annika Properties recommends the use of energy-efficient windows and doors, as well as the addition of insulation to the walls and roof.
