    Modern Conservatories with excellent heat retention in Leiston

    Conservatories Leiston are commonly thought to be more prone to extreme temperatures than other rooms. This is because glass conducts heat better than brick or plaster – and conservatories typically have a larger ratio of glazed to non-glazed surface than traditional rooms. However, there are many technologies and features which offset this. And if you choose the right model – and the right installer – there’s no reason your conservatory shouldn’t be comfortable all-year round.

    Our conservatory glazing is chemically treated to increase reflectivity far in excess of a normal pane’s. In the summer, when the sun’s rays are one of the major heat sources, this keeps the conservatory cool.

    In the winter, however, most heat comes from inside the home, which means the glass’s increased reflectivity doesn’t result in unwanted cooling. On the contrary, our multi-chambered profiles and argon-filled inter-pane areas trap heat, keeping you comfortably warm.

    Conservatory planning permission in Leiston

    Previously, planning permission was difficult to obtain for some homeowners, however as of 1st June 2019, recent regulations in England are now more lenient with single storey extensions and building new conservatories Leiston, meaning you may not even need to apply for planning permission. This gives homeowners greater flexibility to improve their current home, rather than move when space becomes limited. However, it is situation-dependent, which is why we will send one of our trained architects to your home to provide an assessment. If you do need planning permission, we’ll have you covered from the beginning to the end of the process.

    You may be exempt from requiring planning permission if your conservatory is of a certain size:

    • If terraced or semi-detached: the extension can be up to 6m long.
    • If detached: the extension can be up to 8m long.

    There are many other conditions, including homes that have already reached planning limits, or properties are located in sites of specific interest. So for more information, read our guide to planning permission. Alternatively, if you’re still unsure or would just like to speak with someone, please get in touch via a formgive us a call – or keep reading. We’re more than happy to help.

    How big can a modern conservatory Leiston be without planning permission?

    When you're picking out a modern conservatory, keep an eye on a couple of important things. Making sure it's energy efficient is key because this means your conservatory will be cozy all year and won't cost as much to heat or cool. You should look for ones that have double glazing technology, including double-glazed windows and doors, and glass panels that keep the heat in well. Also, think about what kind of roof you want. A solid roof with double glazing and insulation helps to retain warmth, creating a warm conservatory feel all year round, while a glass roof allows for plenty of natural light to come in. Whether you go for a solid or glass roof really comes down to what feels right for you and how you plan to use your new space.

    The rules on how big a conservatory can be without planning permission can vary depending on where you live and the specific regulations that apply in your area. However, in general, in the UK, you can build a conservatory without planning permission as long as it meets certain conditions, including:

      1. The conservatory does not extend beyond the rear wall of the original house by more than 3 meters (for an attached house) or 4 meters (for a detached house) and is no higher than 4 meters at the highest point.
      2. The conservatory is not closer to the public highway than the original house.
      3. The conservatory is not intended for use as a separate dwelling.
      4. The conservatory does not cover more than half of the original garden.

    Understanding Different Conservatory Styles

    When it comes to picking out a conservatory Leiston, you've got lots of styles to choose from, each with its own special touch. If old-school charm is your thing, the Victorian conservatory is a hit with many because of its bay front, pitched roof, and fancy top part. On the other hand, for something simpler but still classic, an Edwardian or Victorian conservatory might be up your alley with its straight-edged rectangular shape and sloped roof from each edge, creating a sense of grandeur. For those leaning towards modern vibes, a lean-to conservatory or one with a gable roof that stands tall could be just right. In making your choice, it's key to pick something that not only looks good on your house but also feels like "you." With options ranging from period style elegance to contemporary coolness, incorporating your garden into your home with a conservatory featuring large glass panels is a sure way to add a touch of nature to your living space.

    Maximising Conservatory Performance

    Making your conservatory energy-efficient is super important because it can get too hot in summer and too cold in winter. To make sure it's comfy all year round, think about doing these things:

  • Put in windows and doors that have two layers of glass. This helps keep the warmth inside.
  • Choose glass for your panels that doesn't let too much heat build up, so you don't end up feeling like you're in a greenhouse.
  • Think about using solid panels or blinds to block out some sun on really bright days, which keeps things cooler.
  • Go for a solid roof instead of a clear one. It does a better job at keeping the heat from escaping.
  • By focusing on making your conservatory more energy efficient with stuff like solid roofs and solid panels, not only will it be nicer to hang out there no matter the season, but you'll also save money since it won't cost as much to keep warm or cool.

    Enhancing Security Measures

    Making sure your conservatory is safe is really important. To feel more at ease and boost security, think about doing these things:

  • Put in windows and doors that have two layers of glass and locks that are hard to break into.
  • Use glass that's either laminated or toughened because it's stronger and harder for burglars to get through.
  • Think about getting some security gadgets like lights that turn on when they sense movement or an alarm system.
  • Always check the locks and hinges on your conservatory’s doors and windows to make sure they're working right.
  • You might also want to put a special film on the windows. It keeps people from seeing inside, which helps hide any valuable stuff you have in there.
  • By taking these steps, you can kick back in your conservary without worrying too much since you know it’s secure.
