The design and materials used for conservatories have both improved significantly in the last decade or so. No longer are conservatories suitable for use during certain periods as they are too cold in winter and too hot in summer - you should be able to make use of your conservatory all year round. Having your conservatory refurbished is now an extremely popular option that plenty of homeowners have undertaken. It's a cost-effective way of ‘rescuing' your old, tired conservatory and re-claiming the extra room as you originally intended.
To get the most out of your conservatory, orangery, garden room or sunroom, you need to be able to make use of it from January to December, and at any hour you wish. It should not become a ‘forbidden' room whenever the weather turns inclement. Integral blinds are permanently sealed within double-glazed units, allowing you to fully control the amount of light that enters your conservatory or orangery, and to reduce that amount of heat that is lost. The Venetian or pleated blinds are manufactured to the highest possible levels, and as they are sealed within the glazing cavity, they require no cleaning or maintenance and will always retain their initial good looks.

All white products will not change greater than a Grey scale of 3 when exposed to normal weather conditions experienced in northern Europe.
Bi-folding doors are the very much the ‘buzz theme' of the moment when it comes to home design. A Bi-folding door is a door that either partially or completely replaces one or more exterior walls of a building. When the weather is right, they can be folded up completely, creating a spectacular view of your garden and, if you have one, your terrace or pool. A Bi-fold door offers you the chance of creating a truly unique living area, affording you a tremendously relaxing setting that's flooded with fresh air and naturally sunlight.
Designed to aesthetically complement any property, this system is ideal for use on larger residential buildings, smaller commercial premises and conservatory roof applications, as the system is sturdier due to the thick gutter extrusion. Guttering not only ensures efficient drainage of your roof but can also improve the appearance of your home. Our products help to protect the property against weather damage as well as providing a finishing touch to the roof. It is important to fix a damaged roof.
We fit all types of key locks including the Ultion security cylinder. When Ultion detects an attack it activates Lockdown Mode. A hidden firing pin in Ultion's core secures the central cam and stops the intruder being able to open the door. As well as being approved by the Police and achieving the highest Kitemark star rating, Ultion is tested by locksmiths with the Master Locksmith Association and is accredited with their highest standard, Sold Secure Diamond. Most security locks have only five or six pins; Ultion uses eleven.
The use of felt or bitumen on a flat roof is out-dated, as such materials are extremely prone to leakage, which causes damage to both the roof and the building beneath. In comparison a fibreglass roof which, if properly laid, has the capability to last for a minimum period of thirty years with no discernible deterioration in quality. At Contemporary Structures we only use fibreglass for our roofing installations, all of which are performed by our supremely-skilled team of experienced, fibreglass-roofing fitters.
