Conservatory Design & Advice Guide

Our 40 page, Conservatory Design & Advice Guide has been compiled to answer the many questions we get from clients entering the marketplace for a new Conservatory, Orangery or Garden Room; In other words, a glazed extension/living space. The author has over 25 years of designing traditional brick built and glazed extensions in aluminium, PVCu and different timbers, including Pine, various Mahogany and European Seasoned Oak to a high standard.

Whilst, Architects, Builders and some Joineries, have knowledge of Conservatory construction, most are not aware of the design constraints and it is essential to have advice from a specialist Conservatory Designer and a conservatory constructed by a joinery experienced in manufacturing conservatories.

Despite the attitudes of a considerable percentage of the Double Glazing Industry now trying to boost their falling window sales by entering the conservatory market, a conservatory is not just a bunch of windows and doors with a roof and a base. Now-a-days it is a highly technical construction, frequently built to meet stringent Building Regulations standards and Planning Constraints, and designed to meet the excesses of our British weather, at the same time to provide a comfortable living environment throughout the extremes of winter cold and summer heat.

Our guide is not intended to replace the advice which is required for every individual situation, but it will provided a broad background of the main considerations and will provide a good foundation of useful knowledge, prior to a consultation with a specialist.

The Key Subjects Covered are:

  • Design
  • Planning & Building Regulations
  • Necessary Building Works
  • Glazing, Ventilation and Heating
  • Flooring and Furnishing
  • VAT implications on New, Listed or Uninhabited Buildings

We encourage you to study this information properly as it could save you making a costly mistake.
