Difficult sites:
When constructing a conservatory
there are often many problems to overcome
when working on residential properties.
Common problems range from drainage, manholes,
boilers, taps, kitchen waste pipes, bathroom
waste pipes and preparation before construction
can begin. All of these are problems that
almost every conservatory is subject to,
so we are very experienced in overcoming
them.
With improvements
in design and technology of today’s
roof systems there are many more possibilities
available to meet the needs of a difficult
site. As shown here with additional building
work and a bespoke design roof we were
able to find a solution for this difficult
site.
Box Valley
Gutter:
Box Valley Gutter’s
are an effective means of constructing
a conservatory onto a property
with low eaves or a bungalow.
In most instances the roof will
be a “double hipped”
design slopping back into a box
valley gutter. The box valley
gutter is a structural part of
the roof with the bottom part
of the roof (the ring beam) being
fixed directly to it. The box
gutters are then insulated to
help prevent condensation forming
and cladded with PVCU boarding
to give a consistent finish inside
the conservatory.

Special
Box Valley Gutter:
Box Valley
Gutters are a versatile part of
conservatory roof systems and
can be manufactured to suit lots
of different designs. One feature
that we commonly use is a high
back box valley gutter with a
welded 90 degree corner. This
can allow us to build the conservatory
from a different elevation to
create more finished floor space
or to fit the roof onto a difficult
roofline. (see photo’s)

Low Aluminium Threshold:
For easy access to a conservatory the doors can be fitted with a low level aluminium
threshold, these are especially effective if there is a big step down from the
conservatory finished floor level.
