Your Local Edwardian Conservatory Specialists in Thatcham
Thatcham is our home town, and the Edwardian conservatory is the style we install most across the RG18 and RG19 area. Its square front and hipped ridge work equally well on the family semis and detached homes near Dunstan Park, the older properties closer to the Broadway, and the more rural character homes in Cold Ash, Hermitage and Crookham. Oakley Green is a family-run conservatory specialist based right here in Thatcham, with more than 20 years of experience and authorised Ultraframe installer status. Being local is not a phrase we use lightly: we are a short drive from every property in this area, we know the housing stock, the plot sizes and the planning considerations, and we are easy to reach long after the work is done. Book a free home visit and we will give you honest advice on whether the Edwardian suits your specific home.
A Design That Works Across Thatcham's Housing
The housing around Thatcham covers significant variety: the newer family estates in the northern part of town, the older terraces and semis near the Broadway and the town centre, and the rural and village properties in Cold Ash, Crookham, Hermitage and Ashmore Green. The Edwardian conservatory's neutrality across property types makes it the consistent recommendation. It does not impose a period style on a modern house, and it does not look out of place on an older one. We see more Edwardian conservatories across the RG18 and RG19 area than any other single style, and the practical reason is straightforward: the square front gives the most usable room from the available footprint.
West Berkshire Climate and Roof Choice
West Berkshire's climate, with cold winters and warm summers, makes the roof choice on any conservatory genuinely important. A polycarbonate or standard glass roof on an Edwardian conservatory in the RG18 area can make the room too cold in January and too hot in August to use comfortably. An Ultraframe solid or tiled roof on the same footprint transforms the room's usability throughout the year. As a local authorised Ultraframe installer, we see firsthand the difference this makes on properties across Thatcham and the surrounding villages, and we advise honestly based on which direction your room faces.
Local Knowledge, Local Service, Local Guarantee
Being based in Thatcham means we bring genuine local knowledge to every project. We know the access arrangements on the rural properties around Cold Ash, the typical plot sizes on the Dunstan Park development, and the West Berkshire Council planning considerations that apply across the area. Our 10-year workmanship guarantee is backed by the fact that we are a short drive away if anything ever needs attention, not a national firm with a remote contact centre. We also carry the Ultraframe manufacturer's warranty on every Ultraframe roof installation.

Edwardian Conservatories in Thatcham: Your Questions Answered
Questions answered by your local Thatcham specialist. Not here? Call us or book a free home visit.
What is an Edwardian conservatory?
An Edwardian conservatory is a classic glazed extension with a square or rectangular floor plan, a high, pitched roof, and clean, symmetrical lines. Its design maximises floor space and natural light, creating a bright, airy room that blends traditional elegance with modern benefits.
What is the difference between an Edwardian conservatory and a lean-to conservatory?
The main difference lies in the shape and roof design. An Edwardian conservatory has a pitched, often ornate roof and a spacious square or rectangular layout, ideal for a grand, timeless look.
A lean-to conservatory, on the other hand, features a simpler sloped roof that “leans” against the house, making it a compact and practical option for smaller spaces or bungalows.
How much does an Edwardian conservatory cost?
The cost of an Edwardian conservatory varies depending on factors such as size, materials, glazing options, and roofing style. Each project is tailored to the homeowner’s requirements, so prices are best discussed through a bespoke quote based on your individual design and specifications.
Do I need planning permission to install a conservatory?
Most homeowners in Thatcham and the surrounding regions don’t need planning permission for a new conservatory if it meets the Permitted Development rules. This includes being at the rear of the property, under height limits, and not covering more than half the garden. Permission could be required for listed buildings, conservation areas, or larger designs, so check with your local planning authority before starting work.
