As 2016 approaches, homeowners will be turning their thoughts to how they can improve their home and their lifestyle in the New Year. Whether you’re thinking of selling and dreaming of a new home, or edging closer to retirement and want an extra room to relax or a hobby space, a conservatory is always a good investment.

A conservatory is a great asset to any home, but it’s even more beneficial if it’s energy efficient. Conservatories can be difficult to heat in the winter, and can sometimes get too hot in the summer – so it’s important that the properties of the materials used are considered in the planning stage.
