Deciding on the design
of your conservatory is an important part of the
process and you will want to give careful thought to
the size and design and the impact it will have on
your property and garden.
 Conservatories
add value and living space and you will also need to
consider the intended main use. You may simply want to
extend your lounge living area into the garden or you
may be looking to add a dining room or children's
playroom or home based office. Once you have decided
on the main purpose of this additional living space
you will have a clearer idea of the style.
A DIY conservatory is the most cost effective and
easiest solution to adding more living space to your
home and because you have chosen the self build route
the cost is likely to be reflected in the value of
your property much faster because of the savings you
will make. |

 However,
it is important to remember that the style of the
conservatory should be in keeping with the design and
age of your home. Edwardian and Lean to style
conservatories suit most modern homes but if your home
is an older property, a Victorian or Gable End style
would probably be your choice. |
