Ensuring A Quality, Lasting Investment
Conservatories continue to be a popular option for homeowners looking to expand their living space. There are so many ways to enjoy your new room, some include:
- Home office
- Spacious dining space
- Cosy reading nook
- Play room
- Art studio
- Breakfast room
- Music room
- Pet room
Whatever your conservatory use ideas are, you will want to ensure that you can make the most of the space for as long as possible. Whilst conservatories used to only have a lifespan of around 10 years, advancements in technology mean that today, choosing a high-quality build will supply up to 25 years of enjoyment.
Investing in a durable design and professional installation will help your conservatory remain a functional and cherished part of your home for decades.
Factors that increase conservatory lifespan:
1. Materials
Choosing a conservatory supplier that uses high-quality materials will ensure your investment will last. High-grade uPVC offers excellent insulation and weather resistance, aluminium provides unmatched strength and a modern look, and timber delivers natural beauty and excellent thermal efficiency.
2. Design
Work with experienced conservatory designers to tailor a conservatory that is perfect for your property. A bespoke conservatory is designed to extend seamlessly from your home, not only increasing your living space but also boosting your property’s value.
3. Installation
Professional installation is crucial to guaranteeing your conservatory is structurally sound, safe and reliable. Experts will pay careful attention to details such as sealant and joints to ensure weather resistance and heat retention. A bespoke design reduces potential gaps and weak points, significantly reducing the risk of leaks and other structural issues, which can be common in generic, off-the-shelf solutions.
4. Maintenance
Good maintenance is a key factor in keeping your conservatory in excellent condition for longer. Regular cleaning combined with visits from conservatory maintenance specialists to deal with larger jobs is the best combination. Simply wipe down windows, frames and roofs to prevent the build-up of dirt and grime. Stay in touch with our team in case of more complex maintenance needs.

The best way to be confident that investing in a new conservatory is worthwhile is to work with a high-quality supplier. Here are some things to consider when choosing who to work with:
