Conservatories & Sunrooms

Adding a sunroom or conservatory to your house not only provides extra space, but it is also a great investment too, and it links the inside of your home with the outside.

The first reason for considering adding a conservatory or sunroom would be because you need another room – maybe a dining room, TV room, playroom, sitting room or home office. Or maybe you have other ideas. With power points, heating, ventilation and excellent security, there·s no limit to what you can use a conservatory for these days. But you must use a reputable and reliable company like Penicuik Home Improvements, who have been in the business for over 30 years.

Any kind of home improvement (and the emphasis is on the word improvement) will increase the value of your house, both in terms of £££s but also by making it a more attractive item to sell. So any outlay for a conservatory or sunroom is money saved or invested, not money spent. Penicuik will guide customers on the best style of conservatory or sunroom to improve their house, and will even sort out the finance for them too.

Sunrooms, which have a solid roof, and conservatories, which have glazed roofs, are very similar, in that the construction is a relatively simple process, and they both let in lots of light and sunshine. This is what makes them so popular. Most people have experienced the special kind of light which comes into a room with plenty of glass. It brings the outside in and allows you to enjoy the garden or the view without the hassle of unpredictable weather and midges. In fact the conservatory might have been designed for Scotland.

They are great at night too, especially if well lit by lamps, candles or even fairy lights, which will reflect in the glass. One of Penicuik’s own favourite conservatories is in a beautiful garden which has spotlights on all the trees and flowers, so the room at night is magical.

Craig Scott, Penicuik’s marketing manager, says that conservatories and sunrooms are not just for summer either: "A lot of people assume that these are summer rooms, when they really come into their own in winter. You can enjoy being close to nature during months when you would normally be stuck inside four walls. The sun shines in winter too."

Penicuik, who manufacture award-winning conservatories and sunrooms, also make innovative doors and windows. Their world-leading self-cleaning glass, underfloor heating, energy-efficient windows and fire-rated doors are only some of the many state-of-the-art features you will find in their products. Check out their Elite windows, which are stylish and so much more sleek than double glazing used to be. Black rubber is now a thing of the past.
