Is your conservatory looking a little tattered? Budget won’t stretch to a full replacement? Then save money by revitalising your existing conservatory with our unique refurbishment option.
Old timber, aluminium and plastic systems can be replaced with new white or woodgrain effect uPVC profiles without going to the expense of new base work.
The benefits of transforming your conservatory this way are endless; virtually no maintenance (no painting/staining required); improved insulation with the use of Pilkington K Glass, K2 Celsius Performance Glass or 35mm polycarbonate; increased security thanks to internal beading, multipoint locking systems (PAS011) and reinforcing; and a new 10 year insurance backed guarantee covering both product and installation.
In some instances the main structure of the conservatory is in sound condition but improvementin other
areas might be required such as insulation, condensation, overheating, ventilation or aesthetics.
Replacing the double glazed units in existing conservatory frames to Pilkington K Glass is a great way to
improve insulation as it’s about 30% more thermally effective than regular glass units. It also helps to reduce
condensation considerably.
South facing conservatories invariably suffer from overheating which can make the room unbearable at times.
New developments in polycarbonate roof sheeting now mean a large percentage of solar energy is reflected
and not transmitted through into the conservatory making the inside temperature more comfortable.
Another option for roof glazing is K2 Celsius Performance Glass which carries a number of benefits including a
u-value of 1.4, glare reduction, improved sound insulation, easy-clean coating and a solar factor of just 28%.
Roof vents can be added to a new conservatory roof to aid ventilation. These can be manually operated or
rain and heat sensors can be installed to control electric motors for automatic operation.
Many things can be done to lift the overall aesthetic appearance of a conservatory, for instance a tinted
glass or polycarbonate roof, fluted corner post, dentil mouldings and ridge cresting/finials.
