When home improvements become the order of the day, as a homeowner you must consider your investment wisely, focussing on something that can bring value to the home and provide enjoyment for the family. While there are a number of great ideas to improve the home, few can match the quality or benefits of a conservatory. More and more homeowners are choosing to build new conservatories and are reaping the rewards as a result, but just what it is that makes this type of home extension such a great investment?

Think New Conservatories?

Extra space in the home

All of us could do with extra space in the home and this is exactly what new conservatories provide. Of course, all other types of extension offer extra space too, but a conservatory is different. Whereas a new brick-built room gives you more of what you already have, a conservatory gives you something different – a warm room that is flooded with light and is incredibly versatile. Penicuik’s conservatories are designed around you and your home, giving you space that can be used for anything from a dining room to a kids playroom.

A view of the garden

Many homeowners spend considerable time and money in creating beautiful gardens, only for the Scottish weather to prevent these from being enjoyed. The great thing about conservatories is that they allow us to spend time in the surroundings of the garden, even in the cold weather. The design of these mostly-glass rooms can also be beneficial for plants, with extensive amounts of light and warm temperatures providing ideal conditions for growth.

Added value

If you are looking to invest in something that can add value to the home, a conservatory is the perfect solution. Penicuik’s new conservatories will not only appeal to you, they will look attractive to potential buyers too. The overall benefits that this type of extension brings will significantly increase the price of your property should you ever choose to put it on the market.

Energy efficiency

At Penicuik, all of our conservatories are manufactured using PVCu and insulated double-glazing. Our designs are virtually maintenance free and offer superior energy efficiency, allowing sunlight to warm rooms naturally and preventing heat from escaping. This gives conservatories a major advantage over other types of extensions and means significant savings on heating bills.

New conservatories are perhaps the most beneficial home improvement investment of all, providing you with a space to enjoy and making your home more marketable. If your home does not have one, then it’s probably time it did!
