Lean-to conservatories are usually rectangular with a roof that leans on to the main property (hence their name). They have clean, simple lines giving them a modern, uncomplicated look and making them suitable for a wide range of house styles. In particular, they are the ideal choice for bungalows or other homes where the roof has low eaves. Lean-to conservatories are also known as sunrooms and studio rooms.

Called either the Georgian or Edwardian, this style of conservatory is similar to the Victorian. The main difference is that they are flat fronted where as the Victorian has an angular front. Representing a perfect marriage of form and function, they also tend to be more understated - making them the ideal choice if you do not wish to detract from the visual impact of the main property.

Thanks to its impressive versatility and its ability to complement most types of property, the Victorian is one of the most frequently seen styles of conservatory. It can be distinguished by its steeply pitched roof and its use of ornate detailing along the roof's centre apex (called the ridge). Typically, Victorian conservatories have 3 or 5 panel facets.

Few conservatories are more imposing or enjoy a great sense of presence than the Gable. A style that works especially well with older properties, these conservatories have a square floor plan. In addition, and unlike the Georgian/Edwardian or the Victorian, they also have a vertical rather than sloping front roof section, this maximises the feeling of light and space inside.

Combination and P-shaped conservatories are everything their titles suggest. They offer you more space and greater levels of flexibility by combining two styles - such as the Georgian and the Lean-to - or by adapting an existing style so that it can be used in the shape of a 'P'. Should you find that a P-Shape or Combination still does not provide the unique design solution you are looking for, we can also create a totally bespoke conservatory tailored to your own specific needs. (see below)

Lantern roofs are a majestic and memorable choice for larger conservatories. Not only do they add a feeling of height to the overall structure, but the use of glass rather than polycarbonate increases light levels and gives you an unhindered view of the sky above.

Who says all conservatories have to be white? At AA Conservatories, we offer a number of different colour options. These options include white and a choice of woodgrain effect finishes in golden oak, mahogany and rosewood. A woodgrain effect finish enables you to enjoy the aesthetic appeal of a timber style conservatory, but without the associated maintenance requirements - such as the need for regular painting or rot proofing.

Also, as with our window frames we can offer you the choice of any colour from the RAL code chart to realise your perfect conservatory.

If none of the above styles suit or you simply need something bigger, more complex or simply different then contact us as soon as possible to discuss a BESPOKE conservatory.

As manufacturers of conservatory roofs and specialists in our field we would be delighted to offer our services for a simple friendly no pressure chat so we can show you how your conservatory dream can come true.

Polycarbonate is a special type of translucent plastic that is used in most conservatory roofs. It has been developed to provide a light, inexpensive and easy to install alternative to glass, whilst still offering similar levels of heat insulation and light transmission to standard double glazing.We can offer you the choice of 25mm or 35mm polycarbonate - with the 35mm option offering the higher level of performance due to its increased thickness.

Whilst glass has probably always been most people’s preferred choice for roof glazing, its weight, fragile nature and poor heat insulation/reflection properties used to make it somewhat impractical.

Now all that has changed. Pilkingtons have developed a unique range of performance glass specifically engineered for use in conservatory roofs. This glass has a unique facility which enables it to deflect excessive heat from the sun away from the conservatory and to reflect heat from inside the home back into the property. In this way,

the glass keeps conservatories warm in winter and cool in summer, helping to create a room for all seasons.
 

Further benefits include increased sound insulation, a subtle blue tint to minimise glare and a self clean option which reduces the need for manual cleaning. The unique dual-action of the Pilkington Activ™ coating uses the forces of nature to help keep the glass free from organic dirt, giving you not only the practical benefit of less cleaning, but also allows you to enjoy a clear view through the roof and benefit from the feeling of light and space that a glass roof brings.Why not view the videos by Pilknigtons here.
