Considering whether or not you need building permission for your home improvement in Leicester?

Some buildings are considered by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister to be exempt from the requirement of the Building Regulation. If your desired home improvement fits the criteria, no building control permission is required.

Before proceeding with your home improvement it is necessary to notify the Local Authority with written details and sketches of your proposals. They will then confirm if the work is exempt. You can then keep this as your proof of permission if you ever come to sell your property.

Even though your proposals may be exempt from the Building Regulations you may still require Planning Permission. This has to be applied for separately and advice can be obtained from the Planning Portal – details below.

Types of buildings that can often be exempt from building control permission.
· 1. Porches
· 2. Carports
· 3. Conservatory
· 4. Covered yard or covered way
· 5. Extensions or Alterations to an existing exempt building
· 6. Small detached building not containing sleeping accommodation.

I’ve just been speaking with one of our designers about custom built conservatories in Leicester, the Midlands and Milton Keynes and he mentioned that there were a number of options available to create custom conservatory designs and shapes to suit a wide range of properties.

Maybe you are looking for something different? Something that you’ve not seen in the many standard pictures floating around the internet? We can help.

A Lean to with Edwardian end can create a stunning conservatory design.

A Lean to Victorian and Gable can create a variety of dramatic, bespoke shapes and sizes.

Or even a raised lantern section tailoring the roof to suit the individual character of your property.

These are the types of jobs we excel at and our vast range of Sculptured PVC-U Conservatories in our range of colour options, Pilkington Glass and Ultraframe Roofing Systems, really make our job and the creation of the perfect conservatory commonplace for our customers across Conservatory Leicester, Nottingham, the Midlands and Milton Keynes.

The Quantal roof system is also particularly adept at spanning larger areas such as swimming pools.

It’s one thing gaining plenty of light into your conservatory and it’s another controlling the heat as a greenhouse effect might not be to every ones liking!

Of course it’s normal to want to keep the heat in, and if you are considering a Leicester conservatory, we can help.

Firstly, ascertain whether or not your conservatory is to be south facing as conservatories with this placement can endure higher temperatures.

A number of sophisticated glass solutions are in place to deal with heat levels within your new Leicester conservatory. The first is Pilkington Optifloat which is a coloured glass tint.

Or there is the Pilkington Arctic Blue which reduces incoming heat transmission.

Through professional design, fitting and the use of the best glass solutions, the ideal Conservatory in Leicester can be achieved. Visit Pilkington Glass

Because of our fully sculptured profile Trustyle are often the preferred choice of Architects and discerning period homeowners.

 As specialists we offer a wide range of pvcu and upvc double glazed windows across many styles and colours.

Many period homes have metal casement windows, often made of iron or steel.  Wood is also seen in older properties and finding another window to match is where we excel!  Over time the metal can distort, the hinges or fittings fail, or the window can just decay from rust. You may wish to replace these windows or even extend your home and fit our sculptured profiles throughout.  Whatever you choose for your Midlands property, we can help.

As the proud owner of a period property you don’t want to change the beauty or appearance of your home but you’d like Double Glazed new PVC-U Sash Windows that are appealing, warm and add real value. Sound familiar?

Our Sculptured Wood Effect PVCU Sash Window replacements are the perfect solution to your home improvement. In either Rose Wood or Golden Oak, you’ll be amazed at their Strength, Double Glazed Warmth and traditional appeal.

Order our brochure to see how many of our customers customise the glass panes too with Georgian bars, Stained Glass, varied panel sizes within the window frame and opening styles just to mention a few.

The latest double glazing security is also in place with double and triple locking and mushroom strikers.

As we see many original Victorian sash windows reaching the end of their life, now is the perfect time to look into the latest double glazing replacement window technology at affordable prices.

There is also little to no fuss too as we are well practiced in removing your old sash windows and replacing them with our UPVC replacement in little to no time at all!

When considering your new double-glazing, you might have noticed that many windows have one frame but are then made up of one or two smaller windows within. These smaller windows are usually the opening windows and the look and appeal of the product is called the “Sight Lines”.

Where the frames are fixed, the glass will be larger. This is known within the industry as unequal sight lines and is perfectly normal to see windows with unequal sizes of glass in them. Take a look around and you’ll see what I mean!

If you see older properties, you’ll notice that the windows often have equal size panes of glass within the frame providing an equal site line. This gives the feeling that all the windows within the frame are the same even though only some of them will actually open.

Our designers are fortunate in that we have a complete and very varied range of pvc-u replacement windows and double glazing options, making it very easy to find the perfect match for any home of any age or style throughout Leicestershire, the Midlands and Milton Keynes.

Often I’ve noticed that for older properties, our Wood Grain effect in Rosewood or Light Oak look superb. These are just a couple of the many exciting choices for your home.

If you are thinking of upvc sculptured replacement windows or a conservatory within the Charnwood area of Leicestershire, Trustyle can help.

You may or may not have heard of a Fully Sculptured Profile effect but, truth be known, our decision to only use a fully sculptured profile has been one of hte reasons for our success. It provides a beautiful looking window, almost like looking at a picture frame providing a window to look at as well as look through.

This is extended throughout our conservatory range too which we provide as a customised service to suit you and your budget. We are expert designers so we are well used to dealing with the many questions that you may have.

Our sculptured Windows and Conservatories come in a range of colours and styles, like the Victorian Conservatory, P Shape, Lean To, T Shape, Large Span, Gable and Georgian. In future posts I’ll be providing pictures for each design and why they are chosen by our customers. We have some pictures of our work in the Windows and Conservatory buttons on the left.

Of course, Ultraframe Roofs, Pilkington Glass, High Quality UPVC Composition and 10 year guarantees come as standard if you choose us. Brochures and quotes are also free using the buttons above.
