Lean-to Conservatories
Or sometimes referred to as sun rooms or Mediterranean conservatories these are the most basic of all the styles and will suit virtually any property. They are highly versatile and are often used where space is limited. They have a shallow sloping roof which makes them ideal for bungalows where a pitched roof would not be suitable.

Edwardian Conservatories
Or sometimes described as Georgian conservatories. These are easily recognisable due to their square base and pitch roof. The square base makes the best use of the space available maximising the living space.  There are also many customisations you can make to an Edwardian conservatory such as stained glass and coloured uPVC allowing you to make you conservatory truly unique.

Victorian Conservatories

They come with a pitched roof and have a bay window at the front made up of either three or five tilted windows giving an octagonal appearance. This is one of the most traditional styles of conservatory and hives your home a classic feel.

These are just a few of the many different styles of conservatory available whether you are looking for something traditional or a little more contemporary a conservatory makes a fantastic addition to any home.

It is very easy to get carried away when you are choosing a style of a conservatory but try to remember to think about the existing style of your home. If your house is built from brick then adding a conservatory with a dwarf wall built from Yorkshire stone will look out of place. Likewise if you live in a Victorian property then a Victorian conservatory will probably look better than a Edwardian style conservatory.

To be ensure that your new conservatory will be big enough it is important to establish now what your conservatory will be used for. Whether it is going to be an office, playroom, dining room or extra living room will influence how big your conservatory will need to be. It can also be useful to mark the conservatory out in your garden this will help you to visualise the size and where you want the doors etc to go.

When it comes to choosing materials try to stretch your budget as much as you can and get the best quality you can. Although this may be a stretch at the time it will pay dividends in the future and will be well worth it. Make sure you install adequate heating now so that your conservatory will be warm in the winter. Likewise there needs to be plenty of ventilation to ensure that your conservatory is cool in the summer.

A lot of the advice above is common sense and the most important thing is to allow yourself plenty of time to choose your new conservatory and not rush into any big decisions. Although it can be an  exciting time and you will want your new conservatory as soon as possible by taking your time and doing your research will ensure that you get the perfect conservatory which will provide you with hours of pleasure for many years to come.

However modern conservatories and orangeries are built using materials such as uPVC and double glazing. These materials not only make modern uPVC conservatories and orangeries more affordable but they are also far more efficient and effective structures. uPVC is not only much lower maintenance than metal but it also will not corrode like metal. Double glazing is not only very strong making it much harder to break but it is also a great insulator making it much cheaper to heat modern uPVC conservatories and orangeries. This means that modern conservatories can be used at any time of year.

Although conservatories and orangeries were originally built as a place for growing plants they have developed considerably and they are now used by people for a whole variety of purposes. Although for many people their main function is still to bring the outdoors indoors they combine this with a multitude of uses such as an extra living space, dining room, office, playroom the choices are limitless. uPVC conservatories and orangeries add usable space like no other room in your house and therefore have become very desirable and actually add value to your property.

Traditionally conservatory frames were built out of wood or timber. Modern technology has moved on and the majority of conservatories are now built out of uPVC. This is because uPVC conservatories are much cheaper and require far less maintenance. There are many different styles of uPVC conservatories such as Victorian, Edwardian, Mediterranean and Bespoke conservatories.

Victorian conservatories are easily recognisable by their angled facets. Depending on personal preference and the room available there are two types of Victorian conservatory the most popular is the three facet design but there is also the five facet design. Edwardian conservatories are defined by their pitched roof and rectangular footprint which allows you to get the most use out of the available space. Whereas Mediterranean or lean-to conservatories are a great option where there are height restrictions such as in a bungalow. Mediterranean conservatories have a shallow slanted roof and often have floor to ceiling windows allowing the maximum view of the outdoors. Bespoke conservatories are individually designed for each customer making each one unique. They are becoming more popular as they can be designed to perfectly fit in the space available.

The great thing about modern uPVC conservatories is not only do they come in a wide range of styles but they can also be matched up to uPVC windows and uPVC doors. By matching up a conservatory with uPVC windows and uPVC doors it can tie the whole house together and make it more aesthetically pleasing.

The historical development of conservatories is connected to the progress made in the manufacture of flat glass over the last two hundred years. Conservatories first appeared during the Victorian era of 19th Century Europe. At the time they were used for conserving botanical treasures from around the world. They were a method of displaying social status in a class system.

Today the role of the conservatory has changed. A consumer can select a wide variety of material such as aluminium, uPVC, hardwood, treated softwood and other styles. Developments in the technology of glass has also contributed to the popularity of today’s conservatories. Double glazing has virtually eliminated the condensation that was inevitable with the older single-glazed conservatories. The low-E glass guarantees an excellent level of thermal efficiency and special coated glass helps control solar rays.

A conservatory is very convenient to use, easy to maintain and fast to construct, taking approximately two weeks, and offering a fantastic extension to any home.
