Replacement double glazing designs
Author: Conservatory Outlet | Leave a Comment >>The very latest highly engineered uPVC windows give you the opportunity to choose from hundreds of design options. The slender frames needed to achieve a slimline look have the same front to back dimension as traditional timber which means it is possible to remove your old windows and replace them easily and efficiently.
Showers…storms…drizzle…We hate to break it to you, but the average rainfall in the UK is between 700mm a year in East Anglia and 3,000mm a year in the Scottish Highlands. That’s a lot of potential for leaks, puddles or even worse.
Today’s uPVC windows are technically superior, too. Multi chamber construction helps control noise and heat loss. High levels of weatherproofing and intruder protection keep you safe from the worst of the British climate – and secure in your home. Plus there’s a sophisticated choice of finishes from white through to wood effects that have virtually no maintenance.
Whitegrain uPVC windows are also extremely tough. They feature high-impact uPVC frames with fusion welded joints and corners. This makes them robust and strong so they’ll last a lifetime. All the fixings and hardware are tested to breaking point to ensure the multi-point locks, shoot bolts and locking handles offer maximum protection by gripping the frame securely. For added peace of mind quality uPVC windows are internally beaded so the glass cannot be removed from the outside. All of this means your home can look beautiful and remain a sanctuary for you to enjoy in…

Our composite doors come in six external colours; red, green, blue, white, light oak and now also Black. The internal colour is white.
The solid colours – red, green, blue, white and black – are pre-pigmented which means the colour is added during the manufacturing process. As the skins are applied, the colour goes on evenly.
The light oak finish is a hand-applied stained finish to give depth the woodgrain and all the doors have a high gloss, UV resistant film to give them a final sheen.

Planning laws for Orangeries
Author: Conservatory Outlet | Leave a Comment >>Everything you need to know about Planning Permission and Building Regulations for your bespoke orangery project.
For many, when planning your modern bespoke orangery, Planning Permission and Building Regulations can be an unwanted concern. By choosing Conservatory Outlet this is taken out of your hands so you are free to enjoy the exciting parts of choosing your dream orangery or contemporary conservatory – such as what style will you have, will the roof be glass or polycarbonate and how will you use your new orangery or sunroom?
What is the difference between Planning Permission and Building Regulations?
Planning Permission and Building Regulations are often confused. Both are the responsibility of the Local Authority and basically, Planning Permission takes into consideration the aesthetic effect of a new building/orangery on the surrounding homes and neighbourhood, whilst Building Regulations define how the structure must be constructed in terms of thermal efficiency etc.
Do I need Planning Permission?
Conservatory Outlet will take care of this for you, but for your information, here is a summary of the basic facts. In most cases you will not require planning permission for your orangery in the same way as a conservatory under the present legislation, unless you are adding an orangery to a house that has already been extended. You may also need to check if your house is a ‘new build’ as developers sometimes place restrictions on them.
You may now be able to build quite a number of…
Which double glazing company?
Author: Conservatory Outlet | Leave a Comment >>Which double glazing company?
If you’re currently getting double glazing quotes, and trying to find a good double glazing company then in the current economic climate you need to be very careful.
You need to do your research to find the best double glazing firm, but unfortunately there aren’t very many good double glazing review websites to help you. There are quite a few online double glazing quote websites which give you the chance to find out how much double glazing costs, but be careful not to just go for the cheapest double glazing quote.
Cheap double glazing is not always the best double glazing!
In the last 12 months, 10% of uPVC window companies have gone bust, and over the next 12 months there’s likely to be even more companies ceasing trading. And if the company you choose goes bust once you’ve placed a deposit then you may be in trouble. And what about your double glazing guarantee?
Conservatory Outlet carefully vets all its dealers to ensure they are premium quality double glazing installers. All dealers also offer our unique 123 guarantee which gives you the ultimate in peace of mind when purchasing uPVC windows, uPVC doors, a conservatory or an orangery.
