Conservatories

A well-designed conservatory adds light, space and value to your home, creating a bright room you can enjoy all year round. At Lord Glazing we design and build bespoke conservatories in London, from classic Victorian and Edwardian styles to lean-to designs, gable-fronted rooms and elegant orangeries. Using energy-efficient glazing and quality roofing, our conservatories stay comfortable through the seasons rather than baking in summer and freezing in winter. With 15+ years' experience, 5,000+ completed projects and a 4.9★ rating from over 200 reviews, we deliver beautiful extensions built to last.

Why choose a conservatory in London

Space is at a premium in London, and a conservatory is one of the most cost-effective ways to gain a light-filled room without the upheaval and cost of a full extension. Whether you want a dining room, home office, playroom or relaxing garden lounge, a conservatory connects your home to the outdoors and brings in natural light. Modern glazing and insulated roof options mean today's conservatories are genuinely usable year-round. As a FENSA registered, GGF member company that is TrustMark approved and Checkatrade verified, and fully insured, we manage your project to a high standard from design to completion.

Key benefits

• Extra living space — a versatile room for dining, working, relaxing or entertaining.
• Abundant natural light — glazed walls and roof brighten your home.
• Added value — a quality conservatory can increase your property's worth.
• Year-round comfort — energy-efficient glass and insulated roofing keep temperatures pleasant.
• Connection to the garden — enjoy outdoor views from a warm, sheltered space.
• Less disruption than an extension — faster to build with no need for major structural work.

Options & materials

Every conservatory is designed around your home and how you want to use it:

• Victorian — a faceted bay front with a steep roof for a classic, ornate look.
• Edwardian — a square or rectangular footprint that maximises usable floor space.
• Lean-to — a simple, modern profile ideal for bungalows and compact gardens.
• Gable-fronted — a high, impressive roof that floods the room with light.
• Orangery — a luxurious hybrid with solid pillars and a glazed roof lantern.
• Frames & glass — uPVC, aluminium or timber with energy-efficient glazing and solar-control or self-cleaning glass; glass, tiled or polycarbonate roofs.

To finish your conservatory, consider matching doors such as bi-folds onto the garden, or add roof glazing with our rooflights.

Conservatories across London

We design and build conservatories across all 33 London boroughs, including North London (Barnet, Enfield, Haringey, Camden, Islington), South London (Croydon, Bromley, Lambeth, Southwark, Lewisham, Wandsworth, Merton, Sutton, Kingston, Richmond), East London (Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Newham, Waltham Forest, Redbridge, Barking & Dagenham, Havering, Greenwich, Bexley), West London (Ealing, Hounslow, Hillingdon, Brent, Harrow, Hammersmith & Fulham) and Central London (Westminster, Kensington & Chelsea, the City of London). Wherever your home is, our team can bring your conservatory to life.

Making your conservatory comfortable all year

The biggest concern London homeowners raise about conservatories is temperature — the fear of a room that is unbearable in summer and freezing in winter. Modern design solves this. We use energy-efficient glazing with solar-control glass to reduce heat gain and glare, low-E coatings to keep warmth in, and a choice of roofing to suit how you want to use the space. A fully glazed or lantern roof maximises light, while an insulated tiled roof creates a solid, thermally efficient ceiling that makes the room feel like a true extension you can use comfortably twelve months a year. We also consider ventilation, heating and even underfloor options at the design stage, so your finished conservatory works beautifully whatever the season. This whole-project thinking, backed by 15+ years' experience, is why our customers rate us so highly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission for a conservatory?

Many conservatories fall under permitted development, but size, position and property type matter, and conservation areas or listed buildings have stricter rules. We advise on planning during your consultation.

Will my conservatory be too hot in summer and cold in winter?

Not with modern glazing. We use energy-efficient glass with solar-control options and insulated or tiled roof choices, so your conservatory stays comfortable throughout the year.

How long does it take to build a conservatory?

Most conservatories take a few weeks from groundwork to completion, depending on size and design. We give you a clear timeline before work begins.

Can I use a conservatory as a kitchen or office?

Yes. With the right glazing, roofing and heating, a conservatory makes an excellent dining room, home office, playroom or garden lounge that is usable all year.

What roofing options are available?

We offer fully glazed roofs for maximum light, polycarbonate for value, and insulated tiled roofs for a solid, energy-efficient finish that makes the room feel like a true extension.
