3 Things To Consider When Getting A Conservatory Fitted

Things to think about when extending your home

A guaranteed way to revive your excitement for home living in your current property is to have a conservatory incorporated into it. 

It will provide you with a brand-new space to imprint your personality and enjoy together as a family, and also in isolation when you need some time alone. 

You will find every possible conservatory style at TradeMark, and are unlikely to come across another company with such expertise in this form of extension. 

We therefore know what you must consider prior to installing a conservatory, including these three points:

Will it require planning permission?

Not if it has Permitted Development Rights, it won’t. Because they comply with strict limits and conditions, Permitted Developments can be immediately built without planning permission. 

If you want official confirmation of whether planning permission is necessary or not for a conservatory installation, just speak to your local authority. Their verdict is binding. 

Building regulations approval could also be needed in addition to planning permission. Reach out to your local building control officer for guidance on this.

How much budget do you have?

Try and obtain at least three quotes to get an idea of what a conservatory might cost so that you can figure out what budget you will need for the project.

Go through your finances too and see what you would be able to contribute towards a conservatory. 

Using this information, our team of experts can tell you what will be possible on your budget and construct some potential design concepts.

Is it going to add value, as well as space?

Building a conservatory onto a home is almost certain to increase its current valuation, but exactly how much value will it add to yours?

It’s difficult to give you a precise estimate because it all depends on the size of the structure, where you happen to live, how the conservatory is accessorised etc. It will be worth it though, we can say that with certainty. 

After being informed of your requirements, we will be in a good position to let you know of the value it may bring.
