Can you have a rooftop greenhouse built?

Question

Can you have a rooftop greenhouse built? That being that the roof itself is see-through with a greenhouse/conservatory in the loft? Would this be safe? Could such a thing be approved at all?

That’s a really cool idea if you’d be ok to do it would have to be really good strong quality glass I’m guessing would have to be something specially made and bespoke and would be very expensive that’s for sure.

The best way to find out is to ask planning permission as this would give you your answer and you’d have to apply for this anyways before any such project, I guess the worse they could say is no. Hope this helps, Dale @DLKM Services 😉

You would need to speak to your local authority regarding the legalities but as far as physical construction I would speak to a local builder

Rooftop greenhouses are required on multi-unit products alike apartment buildings that have units. Consider a rooftop where it is directly hit by the sun so that the plants will have enough sunlight. Be sure that a rooftop that you will build has a measurement.
