Find conservatory and orangery projects before the installation is arranged

Conservatories, orangeries and glazed extensions are being proposed in your area. Planr helps you discover relevant planning applications and introduce your installation business while homeowners are still planning their new space.

A homeowner could already be planning the perfect glazed extension

Imagine a homeowner submitting plans for a new orangery overlooking their garden. Or someone proposing a substantial rear extension with large glazed sections.

These projects could be a good fit for a specialist conservatory or orangery installer, but you might not hear about them through ordinary enquiries.

Planning records can provide an earlier view of what’s being proposed.

The challenge is searching through council portals, checking descriptions and drawings, and identifying projects that genuinely suit the products and services you provide.

Planr does the searching and helps bring potentially relevant projects to your attention.

What Planr looks for for conservatory and orangery installers

Planr identifies planning applications that may create opportunities for glazed extension businesses, including:

• New conservatories: Applications explicitly proposing a conservatory addition.
• Orangeries: Projects involving traditional or contemporary orangery-style extensions.
• Glazed rear extensions: Proposals featuring substantial glazing or garden-facing living spaces.
• Replacement conservatories: Projects involving alterations to or replacement of an existing structure.
• Larger home extensions: Developments where a glazed extension solution could be relevant.
• Listed building alterations: Projects involving specialist design considerations for additions to historic properties.

Many conservatories and smaller extensions can be built under permitted development, so they won’t all appear on planning portals. A planning application also doesn’t confirm that the homeowner is seeking an installer or hasn’t already chosen one.

Planr highlights potential relevance. You review the proposed design and decide which projects suit your business.

Introduce your business with their proposed space in mind

Once you’ve found an application that interests you, Planr helps you create a personalised letter introducing your services.

Your letter can reference the proposed conservatory, orangery or glazed extension rather than arriving as a generic home improvement advert.

On Growth and Pro, Planr can also learn about your business from your website, helping your letters reflect the products and services you actually offer, whether that’s bespoke orangeries, contemporary glazed extensions, replacement conservatories or complete design and installation.

Download the letter to print and post yourself, or choose Planr’s Print & Post service for £2.50 per letter.

Nothing gets posted without your approval.

Find potential installations beyond showroom and website enquiries

Recommendations, showroom visits and online enquiries are valuable, but they won’t necessarily show you every relevant project being planned locally.

Planr gives you another way to discover potential conservatory and orangery opportunities across your chosen council areas.

Review the applications, select the projects that match your expertise and make a professional introduction while the plans are still taking shape.

You decide which opportunities are worth pursuing.
