Choosing a bespoke solution means we design the greenhouse to suit your requirements. Flexibility on constraining dimensions gives us the freedom to exactly meet your needs, while maintaining a very traditional appearance.
Victorian or Edwardian? Size or span, budget, required growing conditions and what was there before can all influence the choice of specification, alongside the setting and aesthetic preference.
Our definition of a “Victorian” greenhouse is uniquely specific and historically accurate. Ideal for larger structures and where a strong visual impact is important. Our Victorians also offer greater flexibility with ventilation and can accommodate a wider range of climate control solutions. Our elegant and adaptable Edwardian specification offers a more cost-effective solution and is particularly suited to smaller gardens.
If you are replacing or reinstating an old greenhouse you may have existing walls which the greenhouse needs to suit. Whether that’s a freestanding structure or a lean-to that incorporates a high wall, we’ll advise on which of our specifications is most appropriate for your situation.
Or, you may have a blank canvas – be it a newly built property or the redesign and landscaping of your existing garden – and be unconstrained…
We’re on hand to discuss your plans and advise on matters ranging from optimal orientation and striking design features, such as multi-module porches and atriums, to the challenges of navigating local authority’s planning departments where listed buildings, conservation areas and AONB’s are concerned.
