The Differing Styles of Conservatory for Your Home
The Differing Styles of Conservatory for Your Home
Conservatories have been popular additions to many homes, all you need to do is go on Google Maps and you can see how many homes in the UK have conservatories with their telltale shape and style visible from a great height. If you have been looking for a good conservatory design but may not have decided on which one to go with then below is a short list of some common designs that you may be offered from the leading conservatory companies in your area.
Three Facet Victorian Conservatory
This is the most popular design in the UK currently, the facet part refers to the shape the conservatory takes at the end, a three facet creates an octagonal end which remains one of the more popular designs to this day.
Five Facet Victorian Conservatory
Another Victorian design that is popular but due to the increased number of walls it provides a more rounded shape which can mean slightly more floor space inside the conservatory. This style is used more commonly with larger conservatories so if you have a smaller garden you may want to choose the previous style.
Georgian Conservatory
Another classical design but one that makes the absolute most of its available floor space as it is rectangular in shape. Allowing you more room for furniture or storage as well as fitting well in tight spaces this style is popular especially in smaller gardens.
Gable Conservatory
A Gable conservatory is one of the more modern looking designs that some homes opt for and isn't a million miles away from the Georgian design, these ones differ though in that their roof is normally a pitched roof as opposed to one like the Victorian conservatories.
There are many styles to choose from and a professional conservatory fitter or builder will be able to discuss your plans, any designs you like the look of or suggest styles that suit your home or adhere to any restrictions that may in place in your area.
Restrictions can dictate whether you are allowed to install a conservatory in your home, planning permission should be sought before any work is done on your home. There have been people who have seen their conservatories torn down under orders of the council because proper planning permission was not in place and so had to be removed, and this can be at a dear expense for you the homeowner who may not have known about these restrictions.
New conservatory quotes and cheap double glazing can be found online with many homes making the most of their space and improving the overall appearance of their homes.
