The conservatory, reconsidered

All the light and connection, with a more substantial feel.

Traditional conservatories are often associated with glass or polycarbonate roofs and rooms that can become difficult to use when the weather changes.

We build ours differently. A highly insulated solid roof gives the room a more substantial feel and helps improve thermal performance.

Generous glazing keeps the garden firmly in view, while modern windows and doors bring in plenty of daylight. Rooflights can be built into the solid roof to open up views of the sky.

Shaped around your home

Because the best solution isn't always the standard one.

Maybe you want to open up the back of your home. Perhaps the kitchen feels cramped when everyone's together. Or you might simply want another room where you can enjoy the garden without actually being outside.

We'll look at the space you have, how the new conservatory will connect to your existing rooms, where the best views are and how daylight moves through your home.

From there, we'll shape the size and layout, roof design, glazing, windows and doors around what works best for the space.

Make it your space

The details can completely change how the finished room feels.

Solid insulated roof

A highly insulated solid roof helps create a more comfortable, room-like environment while giving the conservatory a more substantial appearance.

Rooflights

Rooflights can be positioned within the roof to bring daylight deeper into the room and open up views of the sky above.

Windows and glazing

Generous areas of energy-efficient glazing keep the garden connection, planned around your property, outlook and where you want the most light.

Doors

Choose from aluminium bifold doors, sliding doors or French doors depending on the opening, view and look you want to create.

Made for more than summer

A room shouldn't become off-limits when the weather changes.

Older conservatories have a reputation for being too hot when the sun comes out and too cold when temperatures drop. With a completely new conservatory, we can approach comfort differently from the very beginning.

  • Insulation where it matters

    A highly insulated solid roof helps reduce heat transfer through one of the largest areas of the structure.

  • Energy-efficient glazing

    Modern glazing and thermally efficient frames help reduce unnecessary heat loss while keeping the room bright and open.

  • Plenty of natural light

    Windows, glazed doors and optional rooflights bring daylight in from different directions, even with a solid roof overhead.

  • The garden stays part of the room

    Generous glazing keeps the view open, so even when you're warm inside on a cold day, the garden still feels close.

More room for whatever comes next

A new conservatory gives you the chance to create the room your home is currently missing.

Family living

More room to spread out, spend time together and handle the realities of everyday family life.

Kitchen and dining

A bright space for breakfast, Sunday lunch, entertaining friends or simply getting everyone around the same table.

Somewhere to switch off

A quieter corner of the house where you can read, relax, enjoy a coffee and watch what's happening outside.

Home working

A dedicated workspace with plenty of daylight and a little separation from the rest of the house.

Open-plan living

Give an existing kitchen, dining or living area more breathing room and create a more natural flow towards the garden.

New Conservatory FAQs

  • What is a modern conservatory?

    A modern conservatory keeps the natural light, generous glazing and garden connection people love about conservatories, but takes a different approach to how the space is built.

    Our new conservatories use highly insulated solid roofs rather than traditional glass or polycarbonate roofing, alongside energy-efficient glazing and modern windows and doors.

  • Can I use a new conservatory all year round?

    That's certainly what we design them for. Rather than relying on one feature alone, we look at the roof, insulation, glazing, windows and doors together.

  • Will a solid roof make the room dark?

    Not if the space is designed properly. Windows and glazed doors can bring in plenty of daylight, while rooflights can introduce light directly from above.

  • Can I have rooflights in my new conservatory?

    Yes. Rooflights can be incorporated into the solid roof and are a great option if you want additional daylight or views of the sky.

  • What windows and doors can I choose?

    Depending on your design, you can choose from a range of energy-efficient windows and options such as aluminium bifold doors, sliding doors and French doors.

  • Do I need planning permission for a new conservatory?

    Not always. Some conservatories can fall within permitted development rights, but it depends on your property, the size and position of the proposed conservatory and any restrictions that apply.

  • How much does a new conservatory cost?

    There's no single price because the size, structure, roof, glazing, windows, doors and finishing choices can vary considerably from one project to another.
