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.
