Home Improvements for Oxford Homes

Oxford’s residential character changes completely from one side of the city to the other: Victorian terraces in Jericho and Cowley, leafy 1930s suburbs in Headington and Summertown, and larger detached homes further from the centre still. Twenty-plus years as a family-run conservatories, orangeries, extensions, windows and doors specialist, and our authorised Ultraframe installer status, mean we’re equipped for whichever of those Oxford has in store, standing apart from the general glazing firms competing across the city. We cover Oxford alongside Abingdon and Witney in our regular working patch, designing each project around the terrace, suburb house or detached home it’s built for.

Conservatory with dark glazing, roof lantern, wide glass doors and open-plan furnished living space.

Conservatories

Victorian, Edwardian, lean-to, gable-end and combination styles, built to measure for Oxford homes. Compact lean-to and Victorian designs suit the terraced streets of Cowley and Jericho, while gable-end and combination layouts make better use of the larger gardens in Headington and Summertown.

Orangeries

A more substantial, year-round room than a standard conservatory, with brick pillars and a central glazed lantern that works particularly well as an open-plan kitchen extension on the larger detached and semi-detached homes in Headington and Summertown.

Replacement Conservatory Roofs

If an existing Oxford conservatory is too hot in summer and too cold in winter, our Ultraframe Livinroof and Ultraroof systems transform it. As an authorised Ultraframe installer we fit and guarantee these to a standard most local competitors can't offer.

Extensions & Conversions

An Oxford home extension or conservatory-to-kitchen conversion, designed and built in-house from survey through to installation, using the same Ultraframe roof systems and high-performance glazing as our conservatories and orangeries.

Oxford Home Improvements: Your Questions Answered

Clear answers to the questions Oxford homeowners ask us most about conservatories, orangeries, roofs, extensions, cost and planning. Still have a question? Call us or book a free home visit.

Are you based near Oxford?

We're based in Thatcham, around 40 minutes away, and cover Oxford alongside Abingdon and Witney as part of our regular working patch. Being within easy reach means a quick home visit and a team that stays reachable.

Do I need planning permission for a conservatory or orangery in Oxford?

Most fall under permitted development, though limits on size, height and position apply, and Oxford has a number of conservation areas with stricter rules. Oxford City Council is the relevant planning authority, and we check your property against their guidance during the home visit.

What affects the cost of a project in Oxford?

Size, style, roof system, groundwork and finish are the main factors. We don't publish fixed prices because every Oxford home is different, but we give a clear, itemised quotation after a free home visit.

Can you replace just the roof on my existing conservatory?

Yes, and it's one of our most popular jobs in the area. Swapping an old polycarbonate or glass roof for an Ultraframe Livinroof or Ultraroof system makes the room comfortable all year, usually at far less cost than a full rebuild.

Which service suits my Oxford home best?

It depends on the property. Terraced homes in Cowley and Jericho often suit a compact lean-to conservatory, while the larger houses in Headington and Summertown have room for an orangery or extension. We'll give honest advice during a free home visit.

Why does being an authorised Ultraframe installer matter?

Ultraframe is the UK's leading roof system manufacturer, and authorised installer status means we're trained and approved to fit their systems to specification, a standard most general glazing firms around Oxford can't offer.
