November 15, 2010

Sales of DIY Conservatories Are On the Up!

DIY conservatories sales are officially going up according to consumer resources who have reported a staggering 40% increase in sales during the recent recession.

Home owners who are looking to extend their living spaces but cannot afford to move to a new home are increasingly turning their attention to DIY conservatories as the next best alternative. As any family knows, space is always an issue when you have a growing family and not enough room to accommodate them.

Compared to conventional purchases of conservatories which are installed professionally, DIY conservatories are much, much cheaper to buy and erect, and can be done so without too much hassle. A reasonably adept person at DIY can easily build a conservatory as long as they have the groundwork done by a professional beforehand or use steel conservatory base construction.

DIY conservatories are proving to be the ideal solution in creating a workable living space which doesn’t cost a fortune. Many families use DIY conservatories as dining rooms, to serve as an additional lounge or even a children’s play area.

The possibilities are endless, and they make an excellent feature for a home, all while saving costs of extending a house or moving. DIY conservatories are easy to maintain, and you can add in a heater without difficulty to keep it warm during colder days.

With families looking at saving costs wherever they can, DIY conservatories are perfect for creating additional space without a costly extension, whilst also adding value to the price of your home.


Conservatory Base Construction

November 11, 2010

Conservatory Base ConstructionIn the past conservatory base construction was limited to traditional methods of excavation, ready-mixed or on-site mixed concrete for the floor and the building of footings or dwarf walls. This was quite a time consuming, disruptive and messy process, but now there is a process of conservatory base construction that will prove to be the process of the future.

The ConservaBase steel conservatory base system is the modern way to quickly and easily construct conservatory base foundations. Standing on just a few easily constructed concrete pads or foundation blocks, it simply bolts to any existing wall. Conservatory base construction can now be completed in just a day, greatly reducing the time taken to build the whole conservatory, enabling the construction to be completed in days instead of weeks.

ConservaBase steel bases are constructed from strong, made-to-measure steel box sections to the exact size and shape of any conservatory, ensuring a perfect fit every time. The steel, coated with anti-corrosion green oxide is delivered in fully welded sections, providing the ultimate steel conservatory base construction, to the highest specification.

There are too many benefits of this future-proof method of conservatory base construction to list here, but the benefits include: reduction in build time, exceeds all relevant building regulations, no skips needed to remove spoil as no major earthworks are required, no builders required, manholes and drains can be left undisturbed and remain accessible, can even be taken with you if you move and, comes with an industry beating 25 year guarantee.
