Solihull's homes, by the numbers
Solihull in the 2021 census: 89,483 households, 82% houses, 18% flats.
Owner-occupation in Solihull runs beyond seven homes in ten, in detached and semi-detached houses across Olton, Elmdon, Lyndon, Blythe, Knowle, Dorridge and Hockley Heath. Where one of those houses has a conservatory or a glazed garden room on the back, it changes the flooring question entirely.
Solihull is one of the West Midlands’ most affluent boroughs: a leafy Birmingham suburb of high-value detached homes, generous 1930s semis and sought-after period villages like Knowle and Dorridge. Buyers here are quality-focused, investing in substantial family properties where interior finish matters as much as address.
A room under glass runs hot in summer sun and cold on a clear winter night, and the swing between the two is wider than any other space indoors. Whatever goes in there needs an expansion gap sized for that movement, not for the hallway's.
