Which Building Extension Should You Choose? When looking to renovate your home, it can be difficult deciding what
extensions and renovations to get. There are so many different types of extensions
and it is important to consider what space you have available and how much
value you can add to your home.
Working across agricultural, domestic and commercial
properties, we provide various building services to our clients. R. S. Greer (Contracts) can always discuss different
building extensions and the best option for you.
Sunrooms Sunrooms are often less popular than conservatories,
however, they offer a fantastic style and stunning exterior appearance for any
home. A sunroom is similar to a conservatory but contains a solid or slate
roof with a flat or vaulted internal ceiling. This means it usually has a lot
more windows and can often be called a sun lounge. This can be built into
either the side or back of the house and gives you a fantastic view of your
surroundings and garden.
Sunrooms offer a unique design with considerably more
windows than other extensions. It can be used at any time of day or year,
allowing more light into your property and making it an ideal area in your home
to relax. There are several colour schemes for any sunroom and can be quite
expensive to install. Whilst your property will increase in value, other
extensions could be a better option when working on a smaller budget.
Conservatories Similar to sunrooms, conservatories create a fantastic
setting to relax in, as well as allowing more light into your property.
Conservatories are often one of the most common building extensions people
choose from. As they also absorb a lot of heat due to their design, it means
they easily heat themselves, saving you money in any energy bills that other extensions
could increase.
Conservatories give you a lot of extra space whilst often
fitting seamlessly into your property and the existing interior design you
have. Many homeowners begin to think their property is no longer big enough for
them. However, extensions, and in particular conservatories, can offer a much
simpler solution, being cheaper than a new home and you don’t always need
planning permission to begin construction.
Roof & Loft Conversions Whether you want loft or roof conversions, these extensions
can transform the exterior look of your home as well as the living space
available in the property. Even whilst your roof remains in good condition, you
can still renovate and upgrade your home exterior. If your loft is currently
out of use, this could be the best option for your home, creating living space
whilst also adding windows or even balconies to your roof.
If you are just looking to renovate the roof rather than
improve the room, there are several designs and roofing features you can
consider. Roof light conversions add more light to the room and can make the
room more usable if the lighting is often poor in the room during the day.
Balconies can also be installed to your roof and although this will only be
used in good weather, it is a luxury feature for any home and gives your property
a unique appearance.
Garage Extensions Garage extensions can be used for a variety of purposes, usually
being added to the front or side of your property. Conservatories and sunrooms
are a relaxing environment that, with the additional windows, create a lovely
setting for homeowners. Although garage extensions add living space, they are
more suitable as function rooms to transform it into something you love.
Adding this extension or renovating your existing space
should not be as expensive but still adds fantastic value and may not take-up
as much space during construction. Being separate to the rest of your property,
your garage interior can have a unique design and colour scheme suited just for
that room and your preference.
