Why choose a Glass room?

A Glass Room can offer an indoor-outdoor hybrid space, suitable for year-round use, which significantly adds value and dynamism to your home or place of business. These stylish and striking rooms are the ideal location for entertaining guests, or whiling away the hours with a good book.

It may seem as though these rooms are just glorified conservatories, although this is not the case. Whilst they do offer very similar functions, a Glass room normally does not require planning permission, whereas a conservatory typically does. The framework for a Glass Room is also considerably less than with a conservatory, as the glass used is frameless, with only minor support posts blocking your view.

A conservatory has substantially more uPVC framing, which carves up the view on offer and also looks less impressive visually than a Glass Room.

Another key difference is the light level, which is much lower in a conservatory due to brickwork, glass framing, and a full or frosted roof. If you want to create an airy and refreshing space at the back of your property then a Glass Room is the way forward.

An awning or veranda may also be able to offer this level of light, and some overhead protection, but cannot offer comprehensive protection from the elements.

A Glass Room can be closed in wet conditions, protecting you and your belongings, but opened fully when the weather is more favorable. In doing this, a Glass Room is converted into a veranda; two products in one. Where a conservatory may become too hot and stuffy, a Glass Room can simply be completely opened to ventilate the space at your discretion.

Built-in guttering within the front profile of a Glass Room channels rainwater down a supporting post, preventing an uncontrolled waterfall running down the front face. Integral heating and lighting options further enhance the inviting nature of these spaces, even when the weather is at it’s most miserable.

As mentioned, a Glass Room is genuinely suitable for year-round use, offering all the qualities of a conservatory, an awning and a veranda combined into one system.
