The shingles are Grand Manor by Certainteed.

I believe the color was Black Pearl.

Beautiful combination of exterior details! Could you possibly confirm this shingle color? It looks like it has more variation than Black Pearl, but maybe it's just the way the light is hitting it.

Can anyone suggest a better way of finishing off the pitched roof here, rather than erecting that diving wall which protrudes quite far and is a bit of an eyesore!

I see what you mean. I disagree that it will look wrong, I think it's difficult to make it look right. It has to sit well with the rest of the house and that's the hard part. Your current window colour makes things the hardest. To put brown windows in the orangery just won't look nice. Any grey tone would look nice, but then the windows need to match everywhere really. A lovely tasteful shaped orangery in white always looks great, but again, all your windows and doors need to match. I'd extend the patio to, wrapping it around the Orangery and making that the feature point of the rear of the house. I know this is 'grand plans', but hopefully you'll see what i mean.

Hi Daniel, The bearing of your property should not inhibit your ability to have a green roof, generally it just requires different varieties of plants which can thrive in shade to be used. I have no expertise in the type of plants which can be used but a good green roof supplier will be able to advise you on this. There are a couple of other things to also consider. Firstly the thickness of the roof will be thicker than conventional roofs and the structure will likely need to be bolstered to accommodate the additional load of this. Secondly consider the access and maintenance of the roof. Visually, green roofs can be a great design addition when done well, and can really enhance the thermal performance of your property helping it to retain heat in the winter and keep cool in summer. Hope this helps.

Go with the rooflights if you want a nice bright space. Builders don't have much vision in my experience, and prefer to do what they've always done.
