Conservatories in Wilmslow
Design a Conservatory That Complements Your Wilmslow Home
Create additional living space with a conservatory where the proportions, glazing, frame finish and roof are considered as one complete design.
St Helens Windows designs and installs made-to-measure conservatories throughout Wilmslow and surrounding areas, with a choice of traditional and contemporary layouts, colours, doors and roof options.
Make It Feel Part of the Home
Small Design Choices Can Make a Big Difference
A conservatory does not have to look like a separate structure added onto the back of the property. Paying attention to proportions, colours and roof lines can help create a more considered overall appearance.
Get the Proportions Right
The width, projection and height of the conservatory should be considered together so the new structure sits comfortably alongside the existing house.
Coordinate the Frame Finish
Frame colours can be selected with the existing windows, doors and exterior finishes in mind rather than treating the conservatory in isolation.
Think About the Roof Line
Roof shape and height influence the silhouette of the conservatory and how naturally it relates to the elevation of the property.
Refine the Appearance
Choose the Details That Set the Finished Design Apart
Once the overall footprint has been decided, the frames, glazing and doors can be used to give the conservatory a more traditional, understated or contemporary character.
Frame Colours
White remains a classic option, while alternative finishes can create a very different look and help coordinate the conservatory with other exterior features.
Door Styles
The choice and width of doors influence both the external appearance and how the conservatory opens towards the garden.
Glazing Arrangement
The balance between glass and frame can be adjusted according to the layout, outlook and visual character you want from the finished room.

Design as a Complete Project
Bring the Main Elements Together Before Finalising the Design
Looking at the whole conservatory together can help avoid choosing individual features that work well on their own but do not feel balanced once combined.
1
Start with the Property
Look at the available space, the proportions of the rear elevation and the features already present on the house.
2
Establish the Character
Decide whether you prefer a more traditional conservatory appearance or a cleaner, simpler design direction.
3
Refine the Details
Frame colour, glazing, doors and roof specification can then be brought together around that overall direction.
Complete the Exterior
Choose a Roof That Works with the Overall Design
Roof choice has a major effect on how the conservatory looks from both inside and outside, particularly when viewed alongside the existing house.
Glass Roofs
A glazed roof gives the conservatory a lighter visual appearance and maintains the extensively glazed character associated with traditional designs.
Solid Roofs
A solid roof creates a more substantial roof profile and can suit projects where a less extensively glazed appearance is preferred.
Replacement Roof Projects
Existing conservatories may also be suitable for a replacement roof, depending on the structure and the proposed new specification.
What About Planning Permission?
Many conservatories can fall within permitted development rights in England, but this depends on the size, position, height, property and any previous extensions or local restrictions.
If you are unsure what applies to your proposed project, check the position before work begins.
