If you’re interested in adding a home extension, but worried about the length of time it may take to complete, you need not be. Planet South Lakes promises to install its conservatories and orangeries in time for Christmas. Meaning a stress free time for you and your family.

Planet South Lakes offer a large range of conservatory designs, including the classic Edwardian and Victorian designs, ranging to the rectangular shaped lean-to and unique p-shaped designs. Each design is bespoke, meaning that it will be tailor made and manufactured to your exact specifications. There are industry professionals to help with this process and design programs to show the conservatory before it’s been made.

Planet South Lakes also offer a range of orangeries. These are similar to a conservatory in principle, but differ due to the percentage of glazing used and the extensive design options available. The range of orangeries offer a contemporary design, creating a lighter space. These are often used as home offices or dining rooms to make a fantastic center piece to any home.

There are many different colour options to chose from – including a variety of woodgrain finishes. Woodgrain conservatories are equipped with aluminum top caps, because they can withstand higher temperatures. Every detail has been considered to ensure the conservatories are top quality and last for many, many years.

Planet South Lakes is part of the Conservatory Outlet network. The Conservatory Outlet network covers the majority of the UK, including: Cheshire, Cumbria, Lancashire, Shropshire, West Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, Northern Ireland and Wales.

Planet South Lakes will be happy to answer any queries and help you in every step of the way to designing your perfect conservatory. Phone now on 0800 612 2255 or request a free quote online.

Orangeries are a modern extension to a home. They have been developed with the success of modern conservatories. Both offer a contemporary feel to any home.

Orangeries are bespoke, which means they every design is tailor made. They are designed for your needs and manufactured to your exact specifications. Obviously this can be slightly daunting, but with reputable companies there will be industry professionals to help you through the design process.

The pricing is fairly similar to that of a Conservatory, being perhaps slightly more expensive. However the features offered definitely deserve a further look.

One issue with a conservatory is that at times it can sometimes feel like a glass room built on to the end of your home. An orangery creates an extremely light and airy room, which feels like a unique extension of your house.

Planet South Lakes offer a range of Conservatories and Orangeries and have been a leading force in the sales of Orangeries all across the UK. That’s because we believe in building a home extension that truly meets people’s wants and needs. A lot of people today want a more modern extension, which is exactly what Orangeries provide.

For more information of the range of Conservatories and Orangeries ring us on 0800 612 2255 or look around our website for a detailed description and pictures of all of our products.

A little bit of interesting facts on Lancaster
Built on a site first fortified in Roman times, the superbly preserved medieval castle is just part of the array of fascinating historic buildings in Lancaster, a city where you will find evidence of Georgian pomp and Victorian civic philanthropy as well as Roman and Medieval remains.

Of course, Lancaster has always had a key role in England’s history, giving its name to the great county of Lancashire as well as to the Royal House of Lancaster, and Lancaster Castle is still owned by her Majesty the Queen.

The castle is still a working building, housing two crown courts and a prison. Guided tours throughout the year offer you a glimpse behind its high walls.

The castle and the ancient Priory Church of St Mary the Virgin form a magnificent backdrop to special events throughout the year, including the Georgian Fair and the hugely popular November fireworks celebrations.

Form this hilltop you can also look across to another famous Lancaster landmark and one of England’s grandest follies, dominating the skyline – the Ashton Memorial, set in the sweeping gardens of Williamson Park.

Planet South Lakes, one of the foremost providers of double glazing windows, PVC doors, conservatories and orangeries in the Lancaster, Morecambe and Barrow-in-Furness areas, are proud to announce their full range of products and services that will lead them from strength to strength for the rest of the year. With a combination of outstanding customer service, solid guarantees and bespoke design they are confident they have something to offer every homeowner in the North West.

PVC Conservatories
Planet South Lakes offer a completely bespoke design service, based on a variety of styles, which takes you right from the initial consultation in the Kendal showroom and includes all the building works, joinery and plumbing.  They will even provide an installation co-ordinator to make sure every stage of the construction goes smoothly.

Orangeries
Being the forerunner to the modern conservatory, often with a glazed roof, Orangeries prove to be a spacious and airy, yet cosy addition to any modern house, constructed with stone that will suit the style of the property itself.  A must for anyone wanting to add some old world panache, yet remain completely modern at the same time.

PVC Windows
Security is the order of the day with all the PVC windows that Planet South Lakes install.  As a member of FENSA, they take great pride in making sure all the windows they fit have the latest security features combined with an emphasis on ease of use.  Not only do they achieve this but their consultants will also make sure that from all the different varieties of windows  you choose, they will fit perfectly with the character of the building as well.

PVC Doors
Choose from a traditional PVC door to something more in line with safety and security like a stable door or residential PVC Rockdoor.  One thing you can be sure of is to get a door that is longer lasting, elegant and in a range of styles that will suit every taste and budget.  With a modern PVC construction you will never have to worry about them rotting, fading or the need to paint them ever again.

French Doors and Patio Doors
Offering an easy way to access the garden, patio or courtyard, French doors and patio doors are an old favourite and a great addition to any modern home.  Not only can they help to increase the value of your house, as will any Planet South Lakes product, they provide an invaluable cooling effect and improve air flow during the hot summer months.

Rooflines
Not a feature that readily springs to the mind of a homeowner, as a tidy roof line is something rarely noticed, yet a rotting, leaking, paint peeling one will always be spotted and reflected on by a visitor after they leave.  As the saying goes ‘you never get a second chance to make a first impression’ by having a PVC roofline fitted not only are you modernising your home but you are saving yourself the trouble of a lot of difficult ongoing maintenance.

Porches
For anyone wishing to add some extra space to the front of their property as well as some added elegance and style, a Planet South Lakes designer will work hand in hand with the homeowner to pick the best option for a front porch, as of course they do with any of their products.

A Planet South Lakes Spokesperson had this to add last week;
‘We are trying to achieve a situation where the homeowner has so much choice that we can  design a system that is truly bespoke and ticks all the right boxes to fit in perfectly with their desires and budget’
