Conservatories 'a modern alternative to the extension'

 
06 July 2010

Brits considering extending their home have been urged to consider investing in a bespoke conservatory as a modern and stylish alternative.

According to Apropos, a glazed extension offers extra benefits in comparison to the traditional bricks and mortar alternative.

With a near limitless range of options to choose from, conservatories allow homeowners to extend their living space while allowing natural light to flood into their property.

Modern technology and years of experience allow specialist firms such as Apropos to provide customers with conservatories that are more environmentally-friendly than ever and often stretch over two levels.

The firm uses double glazing to help retain heat and meet all the latest energy-saving requirements, which means homeowners can enjoy the conservatory all-year-round without worrying about it haemorrhaging heat.

"To create your bespoke conservatory Apropos send a designer round to view the space and offer advice on style, shape, colour and features to suit your property and make use of any dead space," the firm explained.

Homeowners can then choose the design they want, as well as any additional features they like, including tinted, self-cleaning and solar control glass.

Those who do decide to plump for a traditional extension, or already own one, could brighten it up by installing a roof light or folding sliding doors.
