Inverness Conservatory: Different types of conservatories

If you're running out of room in your house and need extra living space, an orangery, conservatory or sun room could provide the space you need. Bespoke conservatory designs can created and provide a range of options for room uses, being practical for play rooms, reception rooms and dining rooms, or to grow house plants and unwind after work. If you're building a new house, a sun room or orangery can be incorporated into the design as a kitchen, atrium, hallway or general living area which offers excellent light and ventilation and is a comfortable temperature during cold winter months.

Different types of exterior doors for Inverness Homes

There are a significant number of exterior door types to choose out of when you're replacing old existing doors or you're completing a building project and need new doors installing. For door options suited to opening onto your patio or yard, folding doors, which can be bi-fold or tri-fold, or aluminium framed sliding doors could be the ideal solution for you. If you're building a porch or replacing an exterior door at the front or rear of your property, composite doors tend to be popular as a solid wood alternative, especially considering their higher energy efficiency. Another material to consider is a uPVC door, which is available in a range of finishes from walnut to oak veneer and plain white. Five lever mortice locks are usually fitted as standard to uPVC doors, which are a popular option as they are more secure than wooden doors with single point locks.

Increasing your home's energy efficiency

Installation of replacement windows and doors is a practical way to improve a house's energy efficiency by excluding drafts and increasing the amount of insulation between the outside and your property. Replacing single glazed windows is a good way to make significant improvements to your property and installing double glazed windows, or if your budget can stretch to it, triple glazing. Improvements in window technology means that seals are better and higher quality glass is used, therefore reducing heat loss. Exterior doors are another area where heat can be lost, so replacing old inefficient doors can further reduce your carbon emissions. Sun rooms and conservatories can provide a buffer from cold air outside, as can porches at the front of your property, helping insulate your home and warm it, reducing heating bills. Due to the expanse of glass property extensions such as these constructions are built with, choosing high quality glass for doors and windows is recommended.

Inverness Homes: Different types of glazing

When carrying out window upgrades, different glazing styles are on offer, including etched glass, stained glass and glass with frosted designs. Windows with frosted and etched designs tend to be popular installations for bathrooms and shower rooms to provide light but not allow people to see in. Glass with decorative designs such as stained glass and leaded patterns, which can be diamonds, square or swirled designs, can be used to enhance a door or window pane. Period properties and listed buildings often require replicas of existing window designs to be made when they are being renovated and fitted with new windows to ensure the original look and feel of the property is not lost.

Window choices for Inverness Homes

Your initial decision when fitting replacement windows or fitting windows in an extension or self build building project, is which sort of windows you want to buy. One of the most popular types of windows is casement windows, and they can either be top hung or side hung, with either one or both sides attached, and there are also options for top vents. Sash windows are another alternative sort of windows. Sash windows are generally of wood construction and can be painted or stained to match interior or exterior wood work. French windows are designed where both panes of glass can be opened like a French door or you could choose tilt/turn windows which are flexible, enabling you to open them a small amount or turn through 180 degrees for easier window cleaning. Windows made from uPVC can have matching cills and window boards and an additional benefit is that there is no painting, staining or varnishing work required to maintain them.
