The modern day household needs to be as green as ever before as we are constantly reminded about that damaging effects global warming can cause the planet and us as human beings. There are several ways in which we can help such as recycling on a regular basis, pulling the plug out of appliances before going to bed and relying less on our cars and using public transport more regularly. However, one of the most effective ways of reducing your carbon footprint in the home is by having an orangery installed.

Now you may never have heard of orangeries in the North West previously, but they are commonly becoming the most popular way of extending a home. Like conservatories in the North West and conservatories in Cheshire, the orangery will provide you with enormous heat all year round, so that you can turn down your heating systems, therefore making for a greener environment. The windows used in an orangery will make use of both the heat and light of the sun, making for a warm and bright experience.

They are more aesthetically pleasing than a conservatory as they are almost completely made up of brick rather than uPVC which tends to make a conservatory stand out more, sometimes not in an entirely flattering light. Although it usually costs more to install an orangery than a conservatory, the reason is because it really is the most spectacular way of extending a home. Best of all, no matter what shape or size your home is you can usually always have an orangery fitted at the back of it.

An orangery is almost certain to be an investment which lasts as long as you do in your home. It will also add value to your home and make it much more sought after.

Extending your property with a stylish orangery or garden room can be simple and straight forward as generally no planning permission is needed.

How often have you seen a beautiful orangery lit up at night and not been envious of the stylish extra living space?

An orangery can give you a luxurious dining room in which to entertain by candlelight, an airy garden room in the daytime, a useful working study, or if you have little ones around the house, the additional space can become a bright and buzzing playroom.

Many people think of orangeries as a more substantial version of the traditional conservatory – and they would be right. There is more brickwork showing in an orangery so it seems more solid and room-like, while natural daylight still floods in from the self-cleaning solar controlled glazed roof and windows.

But, what many people don’t realise is that generally they don’t need planning permission or any special building regulations to extend in this way.
While orangeries have become synonymous with luxury country homes, the latest contemporary bespoke designs are just as at home in the suburbs as they are in the country.

At Clearview Home Improvements they have really caught on to the orangery phenomenon – appreciating exactly why people aspire to this extra living space.
With many years experience, the team at Clearview has devised some fabulous showroom displays for you to see exactly what can be achieved.

Half the wall area of an orangery can be in brickwork and what’s more, interiors can be designed with unique internal lighting pelmets for soft low voltage down-lighters which can be used in the evening to give a glowing, cosy atmosphere.

More affordable than a traditional extension, an orangery or conservatory can be a versatile and stylish living area and they tend to become the main feature of a home!
Clearview which showcases a whole range of orangeries and conservatories at their three outlets in Preston, Holmes Chapel and Warrington, also has state-of-the-art technology and innovations to offer customers.

One of the latest is coloured windows – sage green is a popular option giving the effect of a traditional orangery painted in the latest heritage colours – ideal for a home with a history, yet still maintenance free! This facility is also ideal when matching up colours to seamlessly blend with existing adjoining buildings.

And there is a range of new designs to see at the showrooms, including a contemporary atrium design – putting a modern twist into what is normally a traditional style roof.

While the team at Clearview Home Improvements has extensive experience in the conservatory business, orangeries now account for over half their trade – they will design and build and they also guarantee all work carried out under their customer charter.

As managing director John Beaty explains: “We stick to the building schedule religiously and keep customers informed every step of the way.”

Employing a team of around 60, Clearview has ensured all its sales executive are CAD (Computer Aided Design) trained, to enable them to show prospective customers exactly what their orangery or conservatory will look like.

Customer service is paramount at Clearview which has developed an interior design facility giving customers various options when their conservatory or orangery is built.

You can choose from a range of tiles, laminate flooring and lighting and the team can also advise on electrical wiring to accommodate flatscreen TVs and entertainment centres. Heating options can also be discussed along with various door and window options to ensure all-year round comfort.

No matter what style of property you have, be it traditional or contemporary, the team at Clearview will advise you on the best conservatory or orangery to suit your needs.

They are also able to supply other products – these include A-rated windows, aluminium bi-folding doors, modern composite doors and if you have a traditional property, they can supply sliding sash pvc windows.

Ideally located on a new Warrington retail park adjacent to other home improvement retailers and major retail brands from all sectors, the new Clearview showroom is the result of a £150,000 investment to create what is believed by Conservatory Outlet to be ‘the best retail conservatory showroom in the North of England and probably the UK’.

The showroom contains 8 fully featured conservatories in a range of styles, including a number of orangeries constructed using traditional brick and others using the latest modular components. A range of colours also illustrates the options open to customers, with bi-fold doors bound to provide an attraction to visitors. Every conservatory is fully furnished in a range of styles, designed throughout by a professional interior designer.

Clearview, which was formed just two years ago and a member of the Conservatory Outlet network from day one, has leapt to become the region’s leading retailer installing 60 conservatories a month with a sales value of £7.5 million last year through its existing branches in Preston, Lancashire and Holmes Chapel, Cheshire. The Warrington branch is confidently expected to boost the company’s sales by £2.5 million in its first year.

“Clearview Home Improvements fully embrace the ideals and professionalism that we aspire to at Conservatory Outlet,” commented Matthew Glover, the company’s managing director. “It is a superb operation that significantly builds upon the marketing support that we provide by creating its own television and other regional advertising; the rapid growth enjoyed by Clearview is the result of total professionalism.”

Clearview sales director Chris Mitchell believes that the marketing might of being a part of the Conservatory Outlet network has been a keystone in the success of the company: “Between us the directors of Clearview have more than 40 years in the business. But the superb marketing support, including television advertising and the industry’s best internet advertising & marketing team, has helped us become the region’s number one retailer in just two years.”

Dear Sir/Madam,

Not long ago we ordered a Orangery in Manchester. We were looking for a Conservatory as we felt that it was the time to add to our home and were possibly looking at moving.

But in this time it would have been very hard to have sold our home, so we decided that adding an extension was the correct choice. So when we do come to sell, it will also add to the value of our home as well. We see it as a good purchase.

We saw the Conservatory Outlet website, after being recommended it by someone at work, and then requested a quote from you for a conservatory. We received a follow up call and the service was very good – the staff didn’t seem pushy or pressure us in to anything at all. Instead we arranged a meeting time and they visited us and we ended up having an Orangery built, based on our exact wants and needs.

The pricing scheme was very good as well. The spreadsheet design showed when items were added or removed, the price was adjusted automatically – This was extremely helpful as we were working to a budget.

Our Orangery looks great now it’s installed and we’re very happy to have done business with you.

All the best,
T. Rickets,
Manchester.

Here is another entry of someone who had a Orangery in Manchester

Are you looking to add an extension to your home?

Conservatory Outlet have a great range of conservatories available, both traditional and contemporary in design. The range includes bespoke conservatories, gable conservatories, victorian conservatories, edwardian conservatories and lean-to conservatories.

If you’re looking for a more traditional look then the victorian or edwardian style may be what you’re looking for. Or for a Mediterranean appearing extension to your house, then the lean-to design may be more to your liking.

However, if you’re looking for a contemporary, modern conservatory, look no further than our range of orangeries.

Orangeries have the ability to make an extremely warm space, which can be the focal point of social occasions, or merely just a place to relax. The glazed roofs create an airy feel to the room and create an extremely unique living space.

Our range of bespoke orangeries allow you to build your orangery exactly how you require it as well. These can look absolutely sublime and are built to your exact requirements.

So if you’re looking for a modern attachment to your home, please take a look at our fantastic information available on orangeries today.

I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help with our new conservatory. Everyone was so nice and helpful.

We had a contemporary conservatory installed with a light oak finish and it looks brilliant. The uPVC french doors really add to it as well. We were very impressed on how relatively simple the installation process was. We have been told that quite often this is the case with other companies.

My wife and I could not be happier. It is the perfect place to kick back after a long day, even better on the weekend where we enjoy watching the squirrels. The Conservatory Outlet really does offer great customer service, they were just very polite and grateful to help, even with my wife nagging on the odd occasion!

We will definately come back if we need anything else and suggest you to anyone else looking at conservatories. Stockport conservatories finest!
