The Havering Bespoke Conservatories Process
Initial Consultation & Site Assessment (Week 1)
We begin with an initial consultation to discuss your specific goals, intended room use, budget, and material choices (timber, uPVC, or aluminium). We measure your property, evaluate orientation for daylight exposure, and check the build against local Havering planning guidance and permitted development rules.
CAD Design & Planning Sign-off (Weeks 1–2)
Our team creates detailed CAD plans showing how your selected style (e.g., Lean-To, Victorian, Edwardian, or Orangery) and roof option (glass, tiled, or solid) will look and integrate with your house. If your build requires full planning permission or building control sign-off, we prepare and submit the necessary applications.
Groundwork & Base Construction (Week 3)
Once plans and structural calculations are approved, our installation team begins on-site. We complete all necessary excavation, foundation work, and base construction, including brick or block pillars if you have opted for an orangery design.
Frame Assembly & Roof Installation (Weeks 3–4)
We assemble high-performance timber, uPVC, or aluminium frames. The chosen roof system—whether high-specification solar-control glass, a lightweight tiled roof, or an insulated solid roof—is fitted, sealed, and weatherproofed.
Doors, Windows & First-Fix Utilities (Weeks 4–5)
We install your chosen doors (French, patio, or bi-fold) and double- or triple-glazed windows. During this phase, qualified tradespeople run the wiring for electrical outlets and lighting in accordance with Part P regulations, as well as installing electric underfloor heating systems if specified.
Internal Finishing & Final Handover (Week 5)
Internal plastering, ceiling finishing, and flooring updates are completed. We perform thorough quality checks, arrange final building control sign-offs, and hand over your completion certificate alongside a 10-year guarantee covering workmanship, glazing, and weatherproofing. Total project completion: 3 to 5 weeks.

Customer Reviews
"We had a lean-to conservatory installed on a slightly tight rear plot. The team worked within our exact budget and stuck strictly to the schedule they gave us on day one. The finish on the frames and insulation is top quality. It’s easily become our favorite room in the house!"
— Priya K., Gidea Park
"I was initially unsure whether to repair or completely replace our 90s uPVC conservatory. The surveyor was really transparent about our options and didn't push the most expensive choice on us. We ended up going with a full refurbishment—new solar-control glass and bi-folds. It feels like a brand new room without the price tag of a full rebuild."
— Mark T., Romford
"From the initial CAD design through to the base work and final plastering, the whole 5-week process was super smooth. They handled all the building control bits for our new orangery, which took a lot of stress off our shoulders. The final result looks like it was built with the original house. We couldn't be happier!"
— David & Clare P., Hornchurch
"We had an old polycarbonate roof that made our conservatory freezing in winter and like an oven in summer. Havering Bespoke Conservatories replaced it with a tiled roof and new glass doors, and the difference is night and day. The team was punctual, polite, and left everything tidy every evening. Highly recommend them if you're looking for honest, local tradespeople
— Sarah M., Upminster
