The benefits of a conservatory!

maxweb — Fri, 09 Aug 2013 11:10:33 +0000

There are many benefits when it comes to having a conservatory, not only will this add value to your home but will also create space and light. A conservatory can be designed to meet your budget and tastes. Bebington Glass offers a range of different styles that can be designed specifically to meet your requirements. You can hand pick everything from a variety of glazing units and finishes that will fit in with your home, to the dimensions, to provide you with maximum living space.

A conservatory is a luxury! It can be used as you wish, whether it is the perfect setting for a dinner party, a relaxing retreat where you can unwind with a book or the perfect play area for your children.

How do I pick the perfect conservatory for my home?

The process begins by choosing a style that works with the architectural detail of your home.

Victorian Conservatories
The Victorian Conservatory is the most recognisable of all. It is most commonly used because of its segmented front and the gradually sloping facets. This is a bold yet elegant design which complements even the most modern of properties.

Edwardian Conservatories
Edwardian Conservatories are predominantly square or rectangular and are characterised by strong clean lines. This style of conservatory works particularly well with modern and Edwardian homes.

Garden Room
A Garden Room suites the majority of homes, it is easy to position and is the most affordable of all conservatories.
At Bebington Glass all conservatories are constructed to the highest possible standard. Your conservatory should be as durable as the rest of your home, so only the most secure foundations & highest quality materials are used. A conservatory is virtually maintenance free and designed to be easy to tend to, just simply wipe down with a damp cloth to keep that fresh, white colour.

The majority of consumers want more space when it comes to their home but the costs associated with moving house can easily reach £10,000 or more. A conservatory can actually be cheaper than the cost of moving and much more beneficial in the long run as it will increase the value of your home. When purchasing a conservatory you should look at it as a long term investment!

One of the greatest benefits of having a conservatory is being able to enjoy your garden all year round from the warmth of your own home. The large panels of glass allow maximum light into your home, making it much brighter and more appealing. The UPVC doors and windows allow you to maintain a cool temperature, even in summer when the temperature outside can become quite hot.

We believe a conservatory is a great investment; it is a beneficial product that creates maximum living space a light.

Chancellor Urged to Restore “Conservatory Tax”

admin — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 16:26:14 +0000

The Chancellor, George Osborne, has been told to reinstate the so-called conservatory tax, with housing industry chiefs insisting the green measure is needed to improve Britain’s ageing housing stock.

The duty was scrapped by Communities Secretary Eric Pickles at the end of last year. It means householders who make big home improvements, from extensions to conservatories, to make sure their property meets basic standards of energy efficiency.

Now 11 of Britain’s largest building trade associations, whose hundreds of thousands of members make up the bulk of the construction industry in the UK, have written to George Osborne claiming that some sort of “conservatory” tax will be essential for making homes warmer, more energy efficient and lower carbon.

The groups represented include the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and the House Builders’ Federation, who members provide more than three quarters of all new homes.

Their argument is that if people making large-scale home improvements, like extensions, were legally obliged to make their properties more efficient as they added to them, it would be a powerful boost to the economy, create jobs and boost competitiveness.

Essentially, it would mean householders taking up the “green deal”, offered through loans repaid as small additions to fuel bills over a number of years.

Long-term, the argument is that people would save money because energy efficiency would mean they used less energy.

However, for its part the government has focused on deregulation as its chosen way of kick-starting the construction sector.

It remains to be seen whether the Chancellor will act on the calls from the building industry. But if you want to be absolutely sure that you won’t have to be involved in the extra charges, and are keen to improve your home, it could be worth considering doing so now.

Double Glazing and Condensation

admin — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 12:03:54 +0000

Warm air from the Gulf of Mexico may hit the North West at Liverpool and Chester but, as you won’t need reminding if you live in the region, it can still be pretty chilly and damp, and the air quite wet too.

This can make condensation on windows a bit of a problem, and you may be wondering whether double glazing would provide a complete solution to this issue.

The first thing to say is that double glazing can bring down the cost of heating you home by ensuring greater energy efficiency for your windows. The reality is, though, that a sheet of glass can never be quite the same temperature as the rest of a room. This in itself is not something to worry about.

However, how much colder it is affects how much moisture appears on the pane as condensation. So you will probably notice that single glazing drips with condensation when the external temperature drops.

But you also need to appreciate that double glazing can also be affected by condensation, and that may be more to do with having a moisture within the property itself than anything else.

The good news is that there are things you can do to help which won’t cost a penny. These include:

•    Minimising how many clothes you dry indoors
•    Checking that your tumble drier is not pumping warm, wet into your house rather than somewhere outside
•    Closing the door to the room where you are drying your clothes
•    Using the extractor fan on your cooker, even when just boiling water for pasta
•    Shutting the kitchen door and perhaps opening a window when cooking
•    Checking that your damp proof course is effective
•    Opening a window or turning on ventilation systems after a bath or shower
•    Checking that airbricks haven’t been papered over or otherwise become blocked – speak to a builder or other professional if you are worried

The above should tackle your condensation issues and it’s also important to remember that, unless it’s accompanied by black mould, condensation is not in itself usually a problem.

Double glazing: feel the benefits

Whether you have condensation or not, there are so many advantages to going for the double glazing Chester firms can provide. Here are just some of them:

•    You’ll keep the heat in and noise out
•    You’ll reduce your carbon footprint
•    The upkeep needed on your double glazing in terms of maintenance will be little or none.
•    Modern double glazing offers so many different designs to choose from

Big Changes in Planning Law Announced this Year

admin — Tue, 18 Dec 2012 16:11:31 +0000

Prime Minister David Cameron has this autumn announced big changes to planning rules in a bid to encourage more home improvements and kick-start the ailing economy.

What that means in practice is that if you want to build extensions and large conservatories, you can now do so without needing planning permission under new short-term regulations brought in to boost the British construction industry.

And the change to the planning rules governing domestic properties will alter a situation in which 200,000 typically apply for planning permission for home improvements, from garage conversions and rear extensions to conservatories in Wirral and elsewhere across the UK.

Traditionally, application fees have cost on average £150, while the process has also often left many householders feeling as though they were drowning in red tape.

On a positive note, however, it seems that typically the vast majority, some 90%, of applications do eventually get approved.

But the previous rules stated that single-storey rear extensions and conservatories may be built with no need for planning permission as long as they do not reach further than the back wall of the property by a certain limit.

For semi-detached homes, that was previously three metres, a metre more for detached properties.

Under the new rules imposed this autumn, these restrictions are to be double, so that large numbers of extensions which previously would have needed planning permission could go ahead at once.

Loft extensions will not be covered, however, as the new exemptions apply only to single-storey home improvements.

And the changes were brought in as a temporary measure, due to expire in 2015. The coalition hopes that home owners will be inspired to bring forward any plans they may have had to carry out improvements on their properties, so that Britain effectively builds its way out of the recession.

Enjoy Your Conservatory All Year Round

admin — Tue, 13 Nov 2012 12:49:11 +0000

A conservatory is a wonderful addition to any home. They allow you to enjoy the beauty of your garden when the weather outside isn’t ideal. They can also provide you with extra space in your home at a fraction of the cost of a full extension. Bebington Glass and Glazing, specialists in conservatories in Wirral, can provide your home with a wonderful place to dine, socialise or just relax.

While it’s possible to enjoy your conservatory to the full during the spring and summer months, the cold temperatures can make them unusable in the winter. Without sufficient ventilation, they can also become uncomfortably hot in the height of summer. But that doesn’t mean that your conservatory has to be reserved for certain times of the year. There are a number of simple steps you can take to make your conservatory a place you can enjoy all year round:

Insulation and Ventilation

During hot, sunny days, conservatories can become extremely hot, rendering them unusable. By having sufficient ventilation in your conservatory, you will be able to create pleasant atmosphere within it during the hot summer months. Ventilation is particularly important in south-facing conservatories because their position means they capture more sun. Equally, insulation is important to ensure that the atmosphere in your conservatory remains pleasant when the temperature drops.

Heating

You can use heating to make your conservatory more comfortable in the winter. However, it can be expensive to heat a conservatory. There are simpler, more cost effective steps you can take to make the room warmer during the winter months.

Blinds or Shutters

Blinds or shutters are an inexpensive addition you can make to your conservatory, but they can make a huge difference to the temperature of the room. In the summer, they can be used to provide ventilation. You can also use them to control how much sunlight is entering the room. Some blinds also have insulating properties, helping to keep the room warmer during the cold winter months.

Curtains

Curtains can be used alongside your binds or shutters to keep your conservatory at a pleasant temperature throughout the year. Thick curtains can be used in the winter to insulate your conservatory. They will help to stop heat escaping from the room, helping it stay warm and comfortable. In the summer, you can open your curtains to allow fresh air to enter the room, or close them to prevent sunlight from overheating the space.

Bi Folding Doors

Instead of the traditional patio or French doors, why not consider bi-folding doors for your new conservatory? In the summer, you can fold the doors back to make your conservatory an extension of your garden. This will also help to distribute fresh air evenly throughout the room, preventing the space from becoming overheated. You can also fold the doors back to control how much fresh air is entering the room. In the winter, you can use your bi-fold doors to seal your conservatory off completely from the outside. This will allow it to benefit from your home’s heating system.

Bebington Glass and Glazing can help you create your perfect conservatory which you can enjoy all year round. They also offer roofing services and double glazing in Wirral and surrounding areas.

Transform the Look of Your Home with Double Glazed Windows

admin — Mon, 15 Oct 2012 12:48:03 +0000

First impressions count. Your indoors could be truly stunning, but if the outside isn’t up to scratch then this will make an impression on your guests and neighbours for all the wrong reasons. So, if you want to give your exterior a much needed makeover then you should start with double glazing.

Here at Bebington Glass and Glazing Ltd we can provide double glazed windows which can transform the look of a home. Incredibly modern and attractive, double glazing will make your home look fresh and sleek – so you can rest assured that it will make the right impression.

Not only are double glazed windows aesthetically pleasing, but they can make your home a little warmer as it has an insulating barrier which stops cold from passing through the window. As a result, you will be using less central heating which means you will be using less fuel – so you’ll be helping to preserve the environment.

Cutting back on your central heating also means you can make significant annual heating savings, so you will have stunning new windows and can cut back on your energy bills.

As well as helping you save to save money on your heating bills, double glazing can significantly boost the value of your home. You could also sell your home quicker as more and more renters and buyers are looking for properties which incorporate double glazing.

Double glazing has thick glass panes, which means your home will be a whole lot quieter as noise will find it harder to make its way into your property – so it can also improve your sleep!

So, if you are looking for double glazing in Chester or anywhere else in the North West region, you should make sure you come to us here at Bebington Glass and Glazing Ltd. We can provide glazing services for every type of home, and have been created to complement both internal and external styles.

Our double glazed windows and doors are designed to last, which is why we can provide you with some peace of mind by providing you with a 10 year insurance guarantee.

All are u.P.V.C windows and doors are fully reinforced, energy efficient A rated and are practically maintenance free – so you don’t have to worry about rot or fade. However, our aluminium windows offer all the benefits of the popular u.P.V.C windows but have an exquisite slim-line frame for contemporary style.

If you’re looking for something a little more traditional then we recommend our hardwood windows, as they look extremely warm and are made from environmentally friendly tropical hardwood. Our traditional sash windows also offer a historic charm that’s ideal for those who appreciate traditional styles, and can add a touch of character to any exterior.

Save on Your Energy Bills with Double Glazing

admin — Sun, 05 Aug 2012 15:45:15 +0000

Double glazing has been around for many years now, but not every property has made the conversion. However, with energy bills set to rise yet again, and the country still suffering the effects of the recession on their pay packets, you should definitely consider having double glazing installed if you haven’t already.

Why Double Glazing?

Depending on the size and style of your home, you could be wasting as much as 20% of your heating energy by maintaining your single-glazed windows. If we applied the same energy efficiency classifications to windows as we did to boilers and other appliances, then windows rated as B could save around £165 year on energy bills. We have been installing windows, roofing, double glazing and conservatories on the Wirral for nearly 35 years and our own u.P.V.C. windows are rated as A on the energy efficiency scale.

If saving hundreds on your energy bills wasn’t enough, you could also end up saving money on house maintenance too. Double glazing reduces condensation and damp in your property, leaving fewer draughts and cold spots. This can save you money on decorating, repairs and refurbishments, as well as making your home warmer and more comfortable. Double glazing lasts around 20 years or more, so you won’t have to fork out for replacement windows anytime soon either, nor will you have to carry out lots of maintenance, but just enjoy the financial benefits for years to come. Unlike wooden window frames, u.P.V.C. window frames won’t rot or need repainting – all you’ll have to do is wipe over them with a damp cloth to keep them clean and maintained.

As well as thermal insulation, you’ll also benefit from sound insulation. Our double glazing Wirral customers have noticed significant reductions on external noise, which makes it the perfect choice for bedrooms, especially those facing onto busy streets.

Why Bebington Glass?

We provide double glazing to Chester, Wirral and north Wales homes and have a happy and contented customer base. We don’t use annoying door-to-door salesmen who work on commission, but instead rely on our knowledgeable and experienced team to give you the advice you need when you need it.

Should you decide to go ahead with your double glazing installation, you won’t be disappointed with our tradesmen either. We pride ourselves on arriving on time and maintaining your home to the standard you’re used to. This means putting down sufficient dust sheets and coverings to protect your carpets and furniture, and even wearing boot covers to protect your flooring.

When Should I Change?

You can make the change whenever you want, but most people often find they start considering double glazing in the winter months because they can feel the cold draughts coming through their current windows. However, do bear in mind that changing to double glazing requires your existing windows to be removed completely for short periods of the day, which will also allow cold air to enter your home – and any heated air to escape. Consequently, it is wise to plan ahead and consider double glazing in the summer or autumn months then you’ll be all set for winter.

How your Family Home can Benefit from Having a Conservatory

admin — Wed, 11 Jul 2012 12:43:27 +0000

The whole point of owning your own home is to have a place where you and your family can truly relax, unwind and enjoy yourselves. The addition of a conservatory can be of great assistance in this respect as these affordable and quick-to-erect annexes can provide you with a wide range of benefits which can help to improve your home life exponentially.

Some of the key benefits to be gained from having a conservatory are:

More space
Space is always an issue in family homes and yours will most likely be no different. Indeed, if the rooms in your house are consistently overrun with toys or labour saving devices then it makes sense to have one area of the house where you can relax and unwind. A conservatory can provide you with this much needed space. In fact, you could think of a conservatory as being an additional living room (but with a much nicer view). As well as providing you with a tidy, organised and calm oasis, a conservatory can also be a great option whenever you have people over for meals or parties. Quite simply, having an area of the house reserved for socialising or quiet reflection can go a long way in helping you to achieve a happier and more balanced home life.

More time in the garden
Another great benefit of having a conservatory is that it allows you to sit and enjoy the surroundings of your garden regardless of what the weather may be doing. In fact, conservatories can be an absolute Godsend in areas where the climate is quite cold and the weather isn’t always so friendly. Up here in the North West, we do not get to enjoy a great amount of sun throughout the year; still, when we do, we like to make the most of it. Indeed, it should come as no surprise that there are so many conservatories in Wirral and Merseyside these days.

More down time
Family homes are often pretty hectic so it is only natural that you will feel like having a little bit of quiet time to yourself every now and then. A conservatory can be the perfect answer at such times as it can provide you with sanctuary whenever you do not want to be bothered by the noise of the TV show or video game that your kids have on. Similarly, a conservatory can also prove to be a very handy retreat whenever your partner has guests over who aren’t your ‘cup of tea’. Indeed, a conservatory can enable you to really de-stress as the ability to simply sit down, relax and enjoy a view of your garden or the night sky can do wonders for your state of mind.

To find out more about these great benefits and take advantage of the best double glazing in Wirral, conservatory installation on Merseyside and roofing in Cheshire; look no further than us here at Bebington Glass.

Create Extra Space and Light for Your Home without Having to Move

admin — Sun, 10 Jun 2012 12:41:27 +0000

The housing market has not improved much since the economic downturn began, and so if you’re finding that your current home has become a bit of a squeeze, you may well be reluctant to think about selling up and buying a bigger house.

One way of adding some extra space to your property is by having a conservatory built. This one extra room can really make a difference to that overcrowded feeling in your home. Use the room how you wish, but having it provide an alternate lounge or living room is a great idea, particularly if you have older children, as it can give them a space of their own to escape to other than their bedrooms. If you’re looking for conservatories on the Wirral, then we can help you to extend your living space with a quality uPVC conservatory.

Filled with Light

As a country not exactly blessed with sunshine and warmth, conservatories are a fantastic way of adding some extra light into your home. This can do wonders for improving your overall well-being and lifting your spirits. The double glazing will keep in any warmth during the winter, but prevent it from overheating during the summer, so you’ll always be able to curl up with a good book at the right temperature, or enjoy the benefits of having a meal overlooking your garden without having to worry about the heavens opening and dampening your dinner! We have been providing quality glass and double glazing on the Wirral for nearly thirty-five years, so you can rest assured you’ll only be getting the best.

We offer the option of 25mm Triplewall polycarbonate double glazing on Chester or Wirral conservatory roofs, which will reflect the sun, also preventing your conservatory from getting too hot and creating the dreaded ‘greenhouse effect’. Alternatively, you might wish to have tinted or clear double glazing installed.

Do I Need Planning Permission?

For most homes in the UK, you won’t need to get planning permission first in order to have a conservatory built. However, this may be required in some circumstances (such as if you’ve already had an extension built onto your home), so it might be a good idea to check first.

Do also think carefully about the location you intend for your conservatory. Although you will want your glazing options to avoid the room from taking in too much sun, you will want it to receive some sunlight at some point during the day. Bear this in mind when thinking about the orientation of your conservatory.

What Style of Conservatory Should I Go For?

We offer conservatories in different styles, such as Victoria, Edwardian and Garden Room. Victorian conservatories are the most recognisable design and have sloping facets on the roof and segmented front sections. You may find the unusual shape difficult to accommodate furniture and prefer and Edwardian style instead, which has a flat front and square or rectangular floor shape instead, giving you more floor space. Our conservatories are individually designed for you, so call or email us to discuss your needs.
