What should you know before starting in Stourbridge?
Most conservatories and small porches can be built without planning permission or Building Regulations approval if they meet the size and separation rules, which we check before quoting. Where permission is needed in Stourbridge, Dudley Council handles it.
- The house heating shouldn't simply be extended into an exempt conservatory; it needs its own controls.
- A conservatory under 30 m², at ground level and separated from the house by external doors is normally exempt from building regulations.
- Old conservatory frames may need extra reinforcement before they can carry a solid roof.

Which options suit homes in Stourbridge?
Lean-to conservatory
A simple rectangle with a single sloping roof running down from the house wall. Lean-tos are the most affordable style, work under low eaves and on bungalows, and make good use of a narrow garden. The plain shape is also the easiest to furnish, and it's often the right choice for a dining or sitting space.
Glass replacement roof
Modern double-glazed roof panels with solar-control and self-cleaning coatings replace tired polycarbonate while keeping the room bright. It's a lighter change than a tiled roof, usually costs less and keeps the conservatory's character. It's a good choice if you mainly use the room in spring, summer and autumn and want daylight first.
Conservatories prices in Stourbridge
Expect to budget between £3,500 and £22,000 depending on size and specification in Stourbridge. Insulated tiled roof replacing polycarbonate on a 3.5 × 3 m conservatory: typically £7,000–£10,500.

Conservatories in Stourbridge: common questions
Will I still be able to use the house while the work is done?
Yes. Work is confined to the conservatory and the garden side of the house. The doors between the house and the conservatory stay shut while the roof is off, so the rest of your home stays secure and weathertight. You'll need to clear the conservatory of furniture before we start.
Do you cover Stourbridge?
Yes. Stourbridge (DY8) is about 8 miles from our West Bromwich base and inside the area we cover. Call 0800 088 6248 or send the form on this page to book a free survey.
How long does a conservatory roof replacement take?
Most replacement roofs take three to seven days on site, depending on size and whether the frames need reinforcing. The roof is usually off and the new structure weathertight within a day or two, and the rest of the time goes on tiling, plastering and finishing. A new conservatory takes longer, usually two to four weeks.
Who approves conservatories in Stourbridge?
Often not. Many porches and conservatories meet the permitted development and Building Regulations exemptions. If yours doesn't, the planning authority for Stourbridge is Dudley Council.
