Made-to-Measure Glass Rooms with Sliding Walls in York
The reason customers in York pick a sliding-wall glass room over a fixed one is simple: they use it differently in July than in January. Panels stack flush to a corner in summer, close and seal in winter. Same room, two lives.

Frequently asked questions
What does a sliding-wall room cost in York?
Most York sliding-wall glass rooms sit between £22k and £45k depending on panel count, glass spec and floor preparation. Fixed price from survey.
Do you cover Selby?
Yes — Selby is 14 miles from York and runs on the same install schedule.
How long is the install?
Three to five days on site for a typical York sliding-wall room. Manufacturing lead time 8-12 weeks depending on panel spec.
Do I need planning?
Under permitted development in most York gardens. Conservation areas around the River Ouse sometimes need a formal application; North Yorkshire Council handles this.
What's the U-value?
Comparable to a modern extension when closed — double-glazed toughened units with thermally broken frames. Standard York winter use with a small electric heater is comfortable.
