Is planning permission needed for a conservatory?
-
In most cases, the answer is no because a conservatory is counted as being an addition which is classed as being a 'permitted development right' under UK law. However, before confirming any final conservatory costs and embarking on the building project, EYG will deal with all the necessary planning permission and paperwork to make sure it is a stress-free process for you.
What is the EYG conservatory design and build process?
-
While our conservatory specialists draw up your proposed design, we will give you a free no-obligation quote, before carrying out a detailed site survey to check for drain levels and any proposed conservatory ridge heights.
If the top point of the roof (or the ridge height) is not higher than the eaves on your property's roof, planning is not usually needed.
Once all of the necessary planning permissions have been put in place, we would then come and take accurate fabrication measurements.
All manufacturing stages are quality controlled in accordance with BS5750, and toughened safety glass to BS6206 class A and A-rated class is now fitted as standard in all our conservatories.
All trench footings are dug down to a minimum depth of 650mm and a full damp proof course membrane incorporated into the base, which also carries a 10-year warranty.
After a second survey, our fully-qualified fitters will erect your unit, paying careful attention to weatherproofing and then finish the interior with an insulated floor covering.
Our specially-trained conservatory fitters are highly skilled, and we have builders, plasterers, and heating experts among our team, who are all used to carrying out the highest-quality installations.
