Specialist & Bespoke conservatories

The word conservatory comes from the Italian word conservato, meaning stored or preserved, and the Latin word ory, meaning a place for. Originally used to describe a non-glazed structure where food was stored, conservatories were later used for conserving or protecting plants from the effects of adverse weather.

The first known conservatory in Britain as we know them now was constructed in 1637 in the Botanic Gardens of Oxford University. Conservatories were hugely popular amongst the nobility during the Victorian era. Ideal for keeping foreign plants and fruit trees protected from the volatile British weather, conservatories were also ideal for lounging and entertaining. The popularity of conservatories among Britain’s wealthy was largely due to the cost of wrought iron and the hefty tax placed on glass up in England up until 1845.

Although popularity dipped at the beginning of the 20th century, conservatories become popular once again following the end of World War II. Today, conservatories are an enduring, versatile feature of many British homes. There has also been great strides in technology in recent years, meaning conservatories can now be engineered with a number of contemporary conveniences such as double glazing, under-floor heating and self-cleaning glass.

The cost of installing your conservatory will come down to the exact specifications of your home as well as your own personal tastes.

Sash windows 

It’s never been more simple to combine antique elegance with modern convenience. . uPVC vertical sliding sash windows combine classic design with high energy efficiency ratings and increased security. As a result, they’re ideal for historically sensitive restoration projects and work well as a replacement for antique timber windows. Retain your traditional home’s historical charm or give your contemporary property an elegant flourish reminiscent of Victorian Britain.

Bay windows

Our range of bay windows can add historic grandeur to your home, evocative of Victorian Britain. Bay windows are square in design and come with your choice of fixed or operating casement windows, making them ideal for maximising space and natural light in your house.

Bow windows

Bow windows, also known as compass style windows, have a streamlined shape and style that works well in both traditional and contemporary homes alike. An alternative to the classic bay window, bow windows effortlessly complement any property with traditional aesthetics reminiscent of a bygone era.

Tilt and Turn windows

Combining a practical yet simple operation and modern, visually appealing design, tilt and turn windows deliver innovative dual-opening technology. Tilt and turn windows open two ways using a single, easy-to-use handle and are ideal for maximising ventilation in your property while still retaining optimal levels of energy efficiency and heightened security.
