Do you make conservatories
to order?
Yes-every one of our conservatories is made to measure and can be personalised
with a host of accessories and design features both inside and out.
|
| |
Our neighbours aren't
friendly - how can we protect our privacy?
Conservatories can be made private by the thoughtful use of obscure glass, solid
side panels, blinds or even a solid wall on one side.
|
| |
How soon
can we have our conservatory?
The average turnaround is six to ten working weeks from placing the order (depending
on the weather or if planning permission is required).
|

Can I use
my conservatory all year round?
Modern conservatories, with insulated bases and cavity walls, which feature double-glazed
units and a thermally efficient roof, can be used all year round. A good use
of heating will also help. Comfort levels can be further enhanced through glazing
which is specifically developed to keep conservatories warm in winter by retaining
heat, and cool in summer be excluding solar radiation.

Will Wood
grain finishes fade with time?
Most of the products are guaranteed for a full 10 years against discolouration
and delamination of the specially bonded wood-effect finish.

Do we need
Planning Permission or Building Regulation Approvals?
Probably not. Planning Permission isn’t required unless you’re adding
a conservatory to a house that has already been extended. You may also need to
check the age of your home as developers of new build properties sometimes have
restrictions placed upon them.

North,
East, South or West?
The positioning of your conservatory will influence the ambience of the room
at particular times during the day. In general the following applies:
North facing: subjected to the colder
side of our climate but enjoying some morning sun. Good insulation
and heating will be required.
South facing: The
warmth of a conservatory on the sunny side of your
property will be appreciated by both people and
plants. Sufficient ventilation and shading will
help to keep the room at a comfortable temperature
during really hot spells.
East facing: Benefits
from early morning sun, making it an ideal breakfast
room.
West facing: Fairly
well lit at the start of the day and benefits from
the warmth of the sun in the afternoons and evenings-perfect
for entertaining and dinner parties.
