EpicConservatories - Making Your home Epic

Bespoke conservatories are growing in popularity as homeowners are more interesting in improving their property rather than moving property.



Conservatories could make excellent extensions to any home but construction such property additions may take up a lot of time because the planning process and style decisions can be difficult.



An important choice to make may be the actual design of the conservatory you would like to attach to your house since there are a number of points to consider when deciding on the right design style.



Victorian style conservatories are popular with some homeowners but they can look out of place when mounted on modern properties and therefore are best suited to houses that have been built in the same era.



A good thing to do is to talk with a designer from the conservatory firm and explain what you would like your extension to complete as they will be able to put your ideas down on paper.



You will need to inform the designer concerning the extension's purpose as you may simply want it for extra space on the floor or you might like it to be considered a party room where you entertain friends and family.



After you have consulted with your conservatory designer, there are still a number of basic what exactly you need to consider which will help you receive the best out of your outdoor extension.



Living in Britain is not the perfect for weather so you should always ensure that your conservatory faces the sun's rays when it is at its warmest because you will be able to experience the benefits in the summer months.



A south-facing conservatory will enable you to get the most year-round sun but this may be too hot for many people, especially the elderly, in summer so you may need to add opening windows and roof vents for added ventilation.



East-facing conservatories will get the early morning sun causing them to be great breakfast rooms but quote that easterly winds can be chilly so heating appliances are advisable.



West-facing conservatories get sunlight within the afternoons and evenings which means this type of extension is perfect for plants which enjoy indirect sunlight as they will love this pleasantly warm environment.



North-facing conservatories do not receive direct sunlight throughout the winter so it will be crucial to install heating and insulation as this will make the cold months more bearable.



If you're happy with the location your conservatory will face then the next step is to relax and wait for your extension to become built.
