Adding Space without an Extension

by | Nov 12, 2013 | Home Improvement

Many people often wish they could add an extension to their homes, just for that little extra space or another sitting room. Home extensions can be costly and time consuming, having to find a reliable and trustworthy builder, budgeting to pay for it and having your home disrupted for months while the extension is completed. Even then, there could be further problems, so one idea that many people are opting for is to add a conservatory to their home instead.

Because the south of England gets more sun than much of the rest of the country, conservatories in Esher are more popular than perhaps places such as Manchester or Newcastle. Essentially a conservatory is a sunroom which is made largely from glass and uPVC, but can be made from wood too. Ordinarily, people prefer a sunroom because it stays warmer even in winter. The uPVC is thick insulated heavy plastic and the glass can be double or triple glazed to keep in the heat. For summer you can also add an air conditioner or ceiling fan for a nice cool breeze when you design your conservatory.

Different Options

Conservatories come in many shapes and sizes and you can design your own specifications when you talk to your contractor. They will work with you on the design and plan the conservatory as big or small as you want it. They will also make the best use of the available space you have according to the width of your home, the size of your garden and at the same time trying not to reduce the size of your outside space by too much. You can choose a covered roof or a glass roof, French doors or sliding patio doors, glass walls or solid walls and a whole host of other options that are available when you choose your design. Remember that some designs may not be as practical as other designs because of the layout of your outside space and the size of your home.

Once your conservatory is fully finished you can then choose the type of flooring you want in there as well as design your sunroom to the best advantage. You can fill it with lovely furniture and tropical plants to make it extra homely.
