WELCOME TO OUR CONSERVATORIES (UPVC) PROJECT

This project is presented by www.u-fit.co.uk

Summary: How to build a upvc conservatory


After many thousands of questions regarding plastic, or upvc, conservatory design and manufacture, we are pleased to present a project featuring conservatories which fit the bill in all areas of the decision process.

Well designed, well made and completely adaptable to modular and custom build, these conservatories are an asset to any home. Not only that but they are easy to construct ! Click on any image to see full range.

With a 10 year guarantee on all parts U-fit conservatories have an expected life span of 25 years. All products have been UV stabilised which means they will not discolour with age.

A modular conservatory is one that is made up of standard size parts which fit together to form an attractive conservatory of a pre-defined shape. Some of the modules are interchangeable which means, for example, that the French doors can go anywhere on the conservatory. For the huge range of modular conservatories, click here.

From a full height Edwardian style conservatory to a Victorian style with dwarf walls there will be something to suit everybody's needs

Click through on the images above to put in the measurements of your available space. You can get an instant quote from the conservatory calculator. 

 For a custom made conservatory, that is one which is especially built for the area you have available, and one which can take on any shape you choose to have it made in, click here to send in your details and discuss your needs with U-fit  

The specification on all conservatories is high and includes the following.

Conservatories are made to the highest quality using Synseal™ products. Each conservatory comes with the following as standard.

  • 28mm thick toughened glass - Pilkington double glazing
  • 25mm thick polycarbonate roofing. Choose bronze, clear or opaque finishes
  • Two opening fanlights with shootbolt locking
  • 70mm double reinforced internally glazed frames
  • Base plans emailed to you on receipt of order
  • Free delivery
  • Fitting kit and comprehensive instructions

Your conservatory can be fitted with attractive blinds to complete the picture 

Fitting your conservatory is easy. With a few DIY skills and a bit of patience, the instructions will guide you through a painless assembly process. As with all conservatories you will need to construct your base and decide if you want a conservatory with glass full height or one with dwarf walls. As you can see from the images below, Its not rocket science!

Dwarf walls built and side panel modules joined together side panel placed on wall and joined with 1 front module

Front section and door frame in place Roof -bars going on

Its up and all in a day!

Each conservatory comes with a free fixing kit which includes silicone sealant, fixing bolts, glass and frame packers. Full instructions are supplied and can be viewed from these links. You will need Adobe Acrobat to read these instructions. If you do not have it, click here
