What areas are included in your free home design and consultancy visit?
We cover most of the Midlands and beyond so we can usually visit you in your home wherever you live. Contact us to arrange a visit.
We'll measure your outdoor space and discuss suitable products. Alternatively, if you live elsewhere in Mainland UK, we offer a remote survey over WhatsApp where we can discuss your project in detail and give you an idea of the price.
How long does a site survey last?
Our site surveys can take anything from 45 minutes to 2 hours.
The satisfaction of our customers is our top priority, the survey and consultation is one of the most important stages of making your project exactly as you envisage, without haste.
How long does it take to install my new veranda or glass garden room?
On average a veranda takes 1-2 days to install, and a glass garden room typically takes 3 to 6 days.
Obviously, this depends on many factors, however, we will never rush an installation, it will take as long as is required to install carefully and correctly.
How long after I order my veranda or glass garden room will it take before it’s fitted?
Our standard lead time is 4-6 weeks, excluding holidays etc.
We carry many of our most popular verandas in stock, these can be delivered and installed more quickly.
Lead times will vary due to seasonal fluctuations and the complexity of your project, dates can be provided at the time of your enquiry.
Do I need planning permission?
Generally, planning permission is not required.
Nevertheless, we recommend checking local regulations before proceeding with the installation.

Please see electrical connections above.
What heaters do you recommend?
You should not use any open fire, gas or propane heating sources under your veranda or within your glass room.
Place electric heaters, like infrared heaters, at least 350mm from any glass or polycarbonate sheets to prevent defects such as tension points, cracks, shattering, or melting.
What guarantees are included?
All our installations and products are warranty-backed.

Features & Options
What are your verandas and glass garden rooms made from?
We use high-quality aluminium for our verandas and glass rooms, ensuring strength, durability, and a long-lasting premium look.
This ensures your new veranda or glass garden room will look great for years to come.
What glass do you use for the roof?
We use 8.8mm laminate glass in all glazed roof systems, meeting industry standards for safety and quality.
Why are you less expensive than the competition but offer a premium quality product?
Glass Garden Rooms operates efficiently by sharing warehouse facilities and getting goods delivered direct to our customers from our suppliers to minimize overheads.
We are a family run company with the aim of keeping our customers happy with not necessarily the cheapest product, but the best value for money.
Additionally, we maintain straightforward pricing without resorting to quoting inflated prices just to offer you huge “discounts” just to get you to sign up on the day, like many of our competitors.
What polycarbonate do you use for the roof and side wall options?
We use a very strong and durable 16mm triple wall polycarbonate in Clear or Opal (Opaque) as standard. We can also offer Opal Solar Control or Ultra-Clear as an upgrade option.
What colours do you offer?
Most of our verandas and glass garden rooms come in the following main colours: Black, Dark Grey, Traffic White and Cream.
Please contact us for RAL numbers if required.
Can we add lighting to our veranda or glass garden room?
Absolutely, we offer LED lighting as an optional extra in all our verandas and glass garden rooms.
If you are considering incorporating LEDs, we recommend completing this as part of the initial project.
What is the difference between a Veranda and a Pergola?
A veranda is a structure typically attached to a building with a single-sloped roof, however, we offer a “freestanding veranda” should you wish to have your veranda or glass garden room placed away from your home in your garden.
A pergola, which can either be attached to a building or stand alone, has a flat roof made of aluminum louvres or laminated glass. These louvres can be rotated to open or close depending on the weather and are operated either by an electric motor or a manual winding pole.
