Your Flat Roof Conservatory Options at Starglaze
A conservatory is a classic addition to any home, giving you more space for your family, or simply a space designed for relaxation. Whatever your needs, a conservatory will give you more room to grow and bring in the maximum natural light into your property.
Are There More Options Than You Know For Your Conservatory?
Conservatories have been a popular addition to British homes since the Victorian era. Originally a place to house, grow, and show off plants brought back from far-off explorations, they soon became a space for entertaining and relaxation. As the years have passed, their style has begun to transition to more sleek, modern designs that prioritise functionality, but many still favour elaborate Victorian and Georgian designs.
We understand that, much like every person in Britain, every single home deserves to be unique. There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all dream house. A conservatory can elevate your home and expand your space without changing the existing structure too greatly. It gives you a brand new extension while bringing in natural light to brighten up your property.
How Have Conservatories Improved Over The Years?
A problem that conservatories of the past have faced is a difficulty in balancing out the temperature of the outside world. In the summer they can become uncomfortable greenhouses, and they can release a lot of heat in the winter. Thanks to improved materials and techniques getting better over the last few decades, this problem is becoming something of the past. Double-glazing and well-sealed panels have led to heat distribution that gives customers a comfortable home all year long.
Along with modern materials and installation techniques, conservatories themselves are becoming more sleek and modern as the years pass. While the ornate iron detailing on traditional conservatories looks beautiful and classic, that isn’t always what a person or a home needs. A house built in the last five years is unlikely to match an architectural style popular in the 1800s. Aluminium frames with large glass panels are becoming more popular, prioritising functionality over elegance.
Customisation Options For Your New Conservatory Roof
One thing that has begun to change is the choice of a flat roof over a slanted one. A traditional conservatory has typically had a gabled or pyramid roof which takes up space in a different way than a typical home nowadays. A flat roof offers the option of a cleaner, sharper appearance for those who want to move away from the classical expectations of a conservatory extension. With this change, there are options to choose from to bring daylight in through your new installation. At Starglaze, we offer a range of options to give you the perfect design for your new conservatory, or just a replacement roof for your existing structure.
Low-Maintenance Aluminium Flat Roof Lights
One option for lighting your space when you opt for a flat conservatory roof is an aluminium flat roof light. These sleek designs blend into a space seamlessly to bring light into your home without affecting the aesthetics of your home. With three different colour options, customers can choose a look that melds with their home. Built with integrated blinds, you can enjoy optimal comfort and convenience, using the wall switch or remote control the operate the motorised blind fitted within the window. Let light into your space or shut out the hot summer sun to keep your space cool with the push of a button.
The placement of the blind between two panes of glass also increases the thermal efficiency of our roof lights, helping to trap the warm air inside and reduce heat loss on colder days.
