With so many conservatory companies out there, choosing the perfect conservatory style, size and even supplier for your new investment can be a difficult and demanding task. However don’t worry Lifestyle Conservatories have put together what we think is a comprehensive and informative web-site to give you the facts about what we think are the best combination of products available.
Lifestyle Windows and Conservatories are a small family owned and operated business emphasizing on service and value for money. We are located in Ilkeston (Junction 25 M1) just between Nottingham and
We are lucky to have built a team dedicated to providing the levels of service that our conservatory customers have come to expect, this shows in the amount of people who come back to us again and recommend Lifestyle to their friends and family, in fact most of our local work within the Nottingham and Derby areas, all comes from the recommendation of existing customers.
We do not employ “pressure” sales representatives, instead we simply offer honest advice and detailed written conservatory quotations. We believe the written estimate we produce for conservatories should be as detailed as possible, they often include eight or nine pages of detail specific to each conservatory, several colour 3D CAD drawings, a superimposed colour 3D CAD drawing onto a picture of the proposed elevation of the property and several pieces of additional literature all with advise and suggestions which may not have already been thought of. We have had excellent feed back for many years on the way the price is broken down, we always detail the finished build cost of the conservatory and then detail finishing items such as electric’s, plastering, flooring and heating as separate items so our customers can see just how they arrive at the final price . This also gives us a chance to include prices for ideas that will make the conservatory more usable all year round such as roof vents, upgraded roof glazing and argon gas filled glass units.
Our conservatory advice and the detail given in our written estimates helps potential customers identify the key areas of the conservatory product and design that we believe are the most important. Think practicality!!! Consider that when thinking about the floor space in a conservatory. Incorporating a dwarf wall? That 500mm is lost on the width and 250mm is lost on the projection and this can have a substantial impact on how much floor space you are actually left with. One of the most frequent comments made by our conservatory customers is “I’m surprised about how much time I spend in there, I wish I’d gone for a bigger conservatory”. An extra half meter or meter on your garden does not have a large impact but an extra half meter or meter on the conservatory has a huge impact to the useable floor space. In my opinion I would say the loss of floor space is why most people think about a Victorian design but order an Edwardian design. Consider that conservatories are now a room for all seasons, but only if they are designed with winter and summer in mind. Adequate ventilation in the side wall frames, roof ventilation, and a choice of roof glazing that provides you with a well insulated conservatory but also provides protection from the sun. One of our most popular options is to Argon gas fill the glass units at a very small cost to increase the efficiency of the glass unit. One of the most impressive options available is the solar control glazing available for the roof or the roof and the side wall frames. This impressive glass has been designed to keep conservatories warm in winter and cool in summer, one of the solar control options available cuts out a phenomenal 74% of solar heat through the conservatory roof.
When being asked about the style of the conservatory we often get asked “What do you think?” Well I always think that a conservatory should look like it was designed when the house was; the roof of the conservatory should incorporate aspects of the house roof and elements of the windows and doors in the house should be continued onto the conservatory. You can achieve this with small choices like the level of the transom or some small Georgian bar detail in the top lights of the conservatory. The important thing to remember with the style of the conservatory is that we are all different and we all have different preferences so look at all the options available and pick the one you like the most. This is another instance where our photo CAD design service is often proven as invaluable and can really help people visualize the finished conservatory, quite frequently we will go back to the drawing board when someone has had the chance to see their first ideas superimposed onto their property.
As part of your conservatory, Lifestyle can incorporate a number of additional trades and finishing requirements, from simply constructing your conservatory to installing all your internal finishings; at Lifestyle we have the knowledge to offer a total project managed conservatory. Internal finishing could typically involve the following, plastering, floor tiling, wood laminate flooring, solid oak flooring, electric’s, under floor heating, plumbing, skirting boards and decorating.
A popular alternative to a fully project managed conservatory is purchasing a DIY or self build conservatory. At Lifestyle we have two ranges of DIY conservatories available to you, our modular range which starts from as little £1774.00 including VAT and delivery, and a fully bespoke package with the same quality, standard of specification and product range that all our retail customers enjoy.
