    And i'm sure that 40% of the people that put them in for a living will do it properly!!

There will be a massive number getting removed in the next 15 years I reckon. If you defo need the extra room - consider a proper sun room - mostly brick with tall windows and skylights.
      Agreed. They are one of the silliest things imaginable. And yet add value to a house. South-facing ones are a bit loopy though! Unless you are a cactus.

        Agreed, that's why you go with recommendations
        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

              Don't forget planning permission. Can be required. Don't beleive what the installer tells you about the pp requirements.

                  all these coments kinda sums it up really:-

                  Dont go the DIY/B&Q/Argos route
                  Get a recommendation

                  I think I will have to give the conservatory a miss this side of the year !

                  dont even know what i was thinking off !... my contract ends next month!

                  Anyone knows if there any investment banking(oracle) contracts going at the mo
