Before buying a new conservatory in Manchester, it’s important to ensure you’ve thoroughly researched your decision. Conservatories are a considerable investment and you’ll want to know the one you’ve chosen if perfect for your needs.

The right conservatory could deliver returns of up to 108 per cent on your original outlay, so here are some factors you may want to consider before signing on the dotted line.

1. Style 

There are many different styles available for a conservatory, whether it’s Edwardian, Victorian, Mediterranean or Pavilion. In the simplest terms, styles can be described as either ‘modern’ or ‘traditional’ and the one you choose will depend on your existing home and personal preferences.

2. Heating and cooling 

Conservatories must have efficient heating and cooling systems to ensure they can be used whatever the weather. Speak with conservatory professionals to discuss your options in more detail, but underfloor heating, radiators, window blinds and portable heaters are all common.

3. Size 

The purpose of your conservatory is likely to dictate the size of your extension. For example, an additional study or reading area probably doesn’t need to be as large as a dining room. Also, larger conservatories typically encroach on your garden, so make sure you’re willing to sacrifice the space.

4. Windows and roof 

Double-glazing windows are often recommended for conservatories, as they better retain heat and prevent the cold from leaking through. The more windows you have, the more natural light can enter your conservatory, which may or may not be desirable depending on the structure’s purpose.
