Conservatories FAQs

Common Suffolk Conservatory FAQs

How much do conservatories cost?

As our conservatories are all designed to offer bespoke solutions for our customers, we cannot offer a one-size-fits-all price. However, we aim to provide affordable options for all budgets. Our team would be more than happy to help with advice on what would work best for your property and price bracket.

What benefits come with adding a conservatory to your Suffolk home?

When you’re considering a new or upgraded conservatory, you might be wondering what benefits it will add to your home and whether they’re worth it. There are many benefits to having a high quality conservatory from Dream Installations. These include:

• Cost-effective way to add a new living space
• Health benefits from natural light and being in nature
• Ability to grow plants without relying on British weather
• Added value to your property
• Less intrusive than a regular extension
• Take advantage of your garden all year round

Is planning permission needed for my conservatory?

Generally, most conservatories do not require planning permission as they qualify as permitted developments. However, it’s always good practice to checking with your local planning department and make sure before going ahead with your project. In order to qualify you must also make sure that the conservatory doesn’t take up more than 50% of the land surrounding your property. Our team can also help point you in the right direction regarding any concerns around planning permissions.

Will the installation of my Suffolk conservatory take a long time?

At Dream Installations, our goal is to make your customer experience as hassle-free as possible, so we aim to install our conservatories and conservatory roofs quickly and efficiently without compromising on quality. The exact timings to completion can vary depending on your conservatory design and size, from glass roof to warm roof, but our highly trained installers will always be much faster than if it were a DIY project. For more accurate timings, please speak to our dedicated team who will be more than happy to help.

What maintenance will my new conservatory require?

Although Dream Installations’ range of conservatories are easy to look after, all types of conservatory style from lantern to tile to flat roof, Victorian to gable, all require some level of maintenance to extend their life and keep them in tip-top condition. The low level maintenance required includes cleaning regularly and keeping an eye out for any wear and tear that could affect the performance of your Suffolk or Norfolk conservatory. When designing and installing your conservatory, our expert team will ensure there is sufficient ventilation to avoid condensation, but this is another element to watch out for as the years go by.
