Top Tips – When Buying a Conservatory


It’s an exciting time when you have decided you want to buy a conservatory. Not only does it help increase the value of your home, it will also provide you with another room that can be used for relaxation and enjoying the finer things in life.

However, it is important to get it right when buying a conservatory. Here our top tips:

Size – First of all it is important to know either what size you want, or most commonly what size you can accommodate. Not only is the size of the land you have is an important factor, so it the size of the house.

As the conservatory is attached to the house you need to make sure it will look in good proportion. Also window locations on the house need to be taken into account, when planning what size you want and can get away with.

You need to establish what you want to use your conservatory for. If you want to use it as a retreat to read a book and relax, and there is only you in your home, then maybe a small design is best. If you have a large family and intend to invite lots of people over, then maybe you need to think about the largest size possible, budget depending of course.

If you have a young family or are planning starting a family and are wanting to stay at your property for a long time think ahead…. Although you may need a small conservatory now, you may not in a few years time….

Price – Its all well and good us talking about getting the largest size possible! However, price needs to come into it.

You will need to establish what size you require, but also you need to carefully weigh this up against what you can afford. There are options when buying a conservatory that you need to consider which will alter the price.

Also don’t forget to shop around and to look for the best deals. And remember, in winter months some conservatory companies offer discounts.

When you get a quote from a conservatory company make sure that you get a complete and all-inclusive breakdown about what is included in the price.

This way you can be sure that you are making a fair and complete comparison between suppliers.

Roof Options – It is important to work out what sort of roof you want. This is very important as it affects the price to a large degree.

Checking with your local authority – It is very important to check with your local authority about the rules and regulations about building a conservatory.

Showrooms – Now you have the basics in place with budget, size etc now is the time to go to a showroom. You may find there are designs there you have never thought of or finishes you now feel you want!

Buying a conservatory is a big investment, but also a great one. Not only do they bring hours of enjoyment, then can also add value to your home.

But it is important to plan before hand and avoid any disasters and problems later on.
