Orangeries Preston
Orangeries can be a more extravagant extension to your home. They date back to the 18th century where they were looked upon as symbols of prestige and wealth. They stood in the grounds of the most fashionable residences, creating a warm oasis where homeowners could relax and propagate their expensive and fashionable citrus fruits. The orangeries of today look remarkably similar and consist of more brickwork and less glass compared to a conservatory. They have a lantern roof and a concealed gutter creating a pelmet inside the room.
Orangeries are designed to let light flood into your home but with the added insulation they will keep you warmer in the frosty winter months which in turn will help to reduce energy bills. An orangery can add a great deal of value to your home and can be designed and built to blend into the existing property as shown in the images.
At Lee Kelly we understand that all budgets are different. As shown below we can offer a more affordable Hybrid orangery which can be designed to suit most budgets. We have two options in this category.
Hybrid Orangery/Conservatory
This is a more cost effective way of creating an orangery feel from the inside. We can install an internal shelf/reveal that will go around the internal perimeter at the base of the conservatory roof and top of the frames. This can be installed in either a PVC or a plastered option. Both options will allow for downlights if required, adding that magnificent lighting ambiance.

It is used in over 90% of the roofs we do which certainly helps with heat loss and reflects the suns rays. The lower the u-value the better the thermal performance.
