Most conservatories may look attractive in glossy brochures but it is important to know there are significant differences in the way they are constructed.Many conservatories are made out of thin sections of ordinary wood: Marston & Langingers are constructed from the toughest hardwoods with a hidden steel core in major frame sections, and built to last as long as the house to which they are attached.Some manufacturers stick wooden strips onto a sheet of glass to give the impression of separate panes.

You may have decided it would be great to integrate your house and garden with a garden room. Or create extra space by adding on to the back of your family home. Or you may live in a town house where extending the property with an ingeniously designed conservatory is the most practical way of achieving valuable additional space. A conservatory can be a beautiful and practical way of creating an extra room, a place where you can relax and enjoy the outdoors all year round.
