Built for Light, Built to Last
A well-built sunroom or garden room adds bright, usable space you'll actually use year-round -- not just in summer.
The difference between a genuine sunroom extension and a basic conservatory comes down to how it's built: proper foundations, insulated roofing, and heating specified from the start, rather than a bolt-on glass box that's too hot in summer and too cold in winter. Done properly, a sunroom or garden room functions as real living space -- a second sitting room, a home office with a garden view, or a dining space that opens straight onto the outdoors.
Foundation choice matters: a base foundation suits a lighter, single-storey glazed structure, while a raft foundation gives more flexibility for heavier glazing systems. Glazing specification is the other major decision -- from standard double glazing to higher-performance systems that keep the space usable through a Galway winter, not just a few weeks of summer.
| Scope | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Small / basic scope | Basic glazed structure (base foundation, standard glazing) -- lower end |
| Medium / standard scope | Standard sunroom (insulated roof, heating integrated) -- mid-range |
| Large / premium scope | Premium glazing / raft foundation / larger footprint -- higher end |
