Having a greenhouse added to your house has a number of remarkable advantages that increase the value of your house, but you will also enjoy living in your house with more pleasure because there is more space, more light, and more coziness.
A conservatory is a light place, mainly made of glass, which gives you the impression that you are sitting outside. It initially makes the house more spacious, but also allows more light to enter. A conservatory is also a place where you can relax. In a conservatory,
you have the feeling that you are sitting outside, while you are in the house. That may well have been the original starting point of a Serre. Create a piece of space where you can still sit comfortably and warmly while overlooking the greenery of the garden or a landscape.

Having a greenhouse built is quite an undertaking, so you must take into account a real renovation. But the result will make up for all the inconvenience. You will get light and space in return, and your house will be worth more by adding a conservatory.
Conservatory, big or small?
Greenhouses come in many shapes and sizes. Round conservatories, rectangular, with or without a roof. The size and shape are determined based on your home and of course the space you have outside. It goes without saying that a single-family house in a city with a small front garden can afford a smaller conservatory than a country house in a meadow. However, with every glass conservatory, you have the feeling that you are sitting outside. A conservatory is often an ideal place to relax or to withdraw from the hustle and bustle around you.
Having a greenhouse built, by whom?
Most people cannot build a conservatory themselves and it is also wise to outsource this to a company that specializes in building conservatories. It is wise to be well informed by having different quotes made that you can compare with each other. If you want a custom conservatory, you choose a company that delivers custom work, that exactly fits your home. You can often visit a showroom and that is definitely recommended.
Visit Showroom Serres
If you decide to visit a showroom of conservatory construction, take a few things with you:
- Bring photos and/or drawings of your house
- Bring information about the probing of your house, if piles have been used in your area
- If you have a blueprint of your house, bring it with you. The more information, the better
- Explain your plans and wishes
- Also, consider insulation and burglary protection
Building a greenhouse, do you need a permit?
Check with your municipality whether you need a permit. In general, you do need a permit. Usually, any company that installs greenhouses can also answer such questions and often arrange the application for a permit in consultation with you. In many cases, the permit is issued without any problems. It depends on several things. Is the conservatory just on the ground, how big and how high will the conservatory be, where should the conservatory be placed, is the conservatory attached to the house, and so on…
Quotation for a Greenhouse
Request a quote from different companies so that you can come to a suitable decision. Prices can vary greatly from company to company, so compare prices and take your time.
Plastic, aluminum, or hardwood conservatory
The material for a conservatory is your personal choice. Many people opt for plastic because it looks sleek and neat and requires little or no maintenance. Others prefer hardwood or aluminum. If in doubt, visit different showrooms to see what appeals to you the most.
