Mr and Mrs Hatch live in a stone built detached house.

They decided to add a conservatory to their home so that they had more space to entertain guests and relax throughout the whole year.

The leicester conservatory they chose was the Victorian with an Ultraframe polycarbonate roof.  It has a set of double doors which link it to their kitchen to provide a generous and comfortable space where people can chat and relax as dinner is prepared.

The interior of the leicester conservatory is furnished in a relaxing and elegant neutral colour scheme with wooden flooring, a two seater sofa and a small dining table.

“The addition of the conservatory allows us to spend the whole of the year in the garden - we dont know what we’d do without it”

With increases in the cost of living, maintaining a home is an expensive proposition and what many people do not realise is that they could save alot of money by getting their windows replaced.

This is why Trustyle of Leicester urges all homes with old wooden timber windows to get them replaced at the next opportunity and replace them with uPVC equivalents.

By keeping draughty timber wooden windows in your home is practically amount to throwing your hard earned cash out of the window.  Any small gaps in such windows can allow a huge amount of heat generated from your home to escape, leaving your living area susceptible to coldness.  Trustyle’s Sculptured pvcu windows prevent this from happening as we have manufactured them so that they offer the upmost in protection, security and stylishness for your leicester home.

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?
