If you’re considering upgrading your home with a new conservatory, one of the first things you’ll likely want to know is how much it will cost, and why different styles have a higher price tag than others. The cost of a conservatory can vary depending on several factors, so it’s essential to understand what may affect your conservatory quotes.
Here at Carera Windows, we have a range of conservatories for your home. We install conservatories for homeowners across Worcestershire and the surrounding West Midlands areas. Get in touch with our team of experts for more information on the conservatories we offer, and for a bespoke conservatory quote.
In this article, we’ll explore some of the key factors that can impact the cost of a conservatory, so you have all of the information you need to make an informed decision on the ideal conservatory for you .
Size and Design
The size and design of your conservatory will have a significant impact on the cost. Larger conservatories will generally cost more than smaller ones, as they require more materials and labour. Similarly, more complex designs, such as Victorian or Edwardian styles, may also increase the cost compared to simpler designs like lean-to’s. It’s important to consider your budget and the available space when deciding on the size and design of your conservatory.
Carera Windows offer a bespoke range of conservatories for your West Midlands home. From period style Edwardian and Victorian conservatories, to P-shaped and Gable, we have the ideal solution for your home. If you are looking for something smaller but with a similar level of class and style to the traditional builds, we also offer combination conservatories, which combine both a conventional style such as Victorian, Gable or Edwardian with a Lean-to build, which allows you to personalise these conservatories with ease.
Materials
The materials used to construct your conservatory will also affect the cost. uPVC is a popular and cost-effective option, while aluminium and hardwood tend to be more expensive.
Here at Carera Windows, we offer uPVC conservatories. uPVC is an ideal option for homeowners looking to upgrade their home on a budget, and uPVC is also a great energy efficient material, keeping the warmth within your home and keeping draughts at bay. uPVC is also incredibly weatherproof, so you can rest assured that your property will not leak or become draughty in adverse weather.
Glazing
The type of glazing you choose for your conservatory can impact both the cost and the performance of the space. Double glazing is the most common and popular choice, offering improved insulation and energy efficiency. However, you may want smarter glazing for your property, and this can be achieved with triple glazing or self-cleaning glass. Triple glazing and self-cleaning glass are a costly addition to your property. However, they perform with low U-values and keep your home looking fresh with minimal effort. Decorative glass can also be fitted into your new uPVC conservatory; however, this would also come at a higher cost.
It is important to consider your desired level of insulation when choosing the glazing for your conservatory, especially if you are looking for improved performance or aesthetics. Get in touch with our team to discuss the glazing options we have available for your conservatory project, and for tailored conservatory quotes.
Foundation and Base
The type of foundation and base required for your new conservatory may also affect the cost. A solid concrete base will generally be more expensive than a lightweight base. The condition of the ground and any necessary groundwork or on-site preparation can also impact the cost.
Here at Carera Windows, we are on hand to discuss your conservatory projects, and to learn more about the space and area you have within your property, so we can make the necessary decisions on which foundation and base would be the best option for your home.
Additional Features
Additional features, such as heating, ventilation, and electrical installations, can also impact the cost of your conservatory. These features can enhance the comfort and usability of the space but may require additional investment.
We discuss your project at length with you prior to offering a quote, so we can include any additional extras within your initial conservatory quotes, so you can rest assured that there is no confusion or hidden fees.
