We have decided to construct a room at rear of the sitting room, 3m x 3m, with hardwood painted windows and dwarf brick wall, with french doors leading outside.
Our options are regarding the roof...because of the different height levels of the existing roof on bathroom extension, we are very limited for head height with a normal polycarbonate conservatory roof type structure, not allowing very much fall for rainwater to the gutter.
A second option would be a constructed roof with black tiles similar to those on existing roof, but we think this type of structure will require building regulations acceptance. Third and most likely choice will be a roof lantern fitted into a flat roof. This type of construction is normally fitted to an "Orangery" style of building, but given the small square metre size of our room, will it still be a conservatory? a sun room? or a mini organgery?
