Conservatories
Elwyns offer a range of conservatories custom-designed to suit every property. You can choose from a wide choice of styles to create a modern or period design including Victorian, Edwardian, Georgian, traditional mono-pitch or nearly any combination of these.
Our impressive conservatories and orangeries will have a dramatic but complimentary effect on your home. Conservatories are simpler in terms of styling with a slim structure and a larger glazed roof and are available
with elegant pilaster, frieze and gable detailing.
Orangeries
Orangeries have been around for approximately four centuries and were originally built for growing exotic plants and fruits. Orangeries are solid, more substantial extensions to properties and are distinguished by having glazed lanterns within flat roof structures as well as having more columns.
If you require a more substantial structure than a fully glazed conservatory then an orangery is the right choice for you.
Styles & Colours
Elwyns range of conservatories includes a choice of styles – contemporary or period designs such as Victorian, Edwardian, Georgian, traditional mono-pitch or nearly any combination of these. Orangeries have glazed lanterns set within a flat roof and are available in a wide choice of colours and finishes depending on the material used to build the structures.
Roof Glazing
For the roof glazing there is the option of self-cleaning glass that reduces maintenance; high performance sealed units that reduce solar gain thus keeping conservatories/orangeries cool in the summer; low iron glass and gas filled sealed units that reflect heat back into the conservatory or orangery thereby keeping the building warm, are also available.
Maintenance
Conservatories and orangeries, whatever the frame material used in their construction, require a minimal amount of maintenance to keep the surfaces clean. All moving parts such as handles and hinges should be checked annually and lubricated appropriately, where necessary. All profiles should be wiped/ washed down using a mild detergent in water at three monthly intervals. The use of abrasive or corrosive cleaners and materials are not recommended.
Glass should be cleaned in the normal way with warm, mild soapy water or a quality glass cleaner.
