Enjoy The Scottish Summer Days With A Conservatory

The clocks go forward next weekend, heralding the start of British Summer Time. When you hear that word summer you envisage long days stretched out in the garden and a host of tasty barbecues.
We can only hope that will be case, but we know how unpredictable the weather can be North of the border. Let us be optimistic though and pretend that a scorching summer lies ahead. If that optimism proves correct you should embrace it from the indoors too with the installation of a conservatory.

“A conservatory in summer, are you mad?”

Actually we’re not! Yes, traditional conservatories with polycarbonate roofs tend to overheat in summer, but the technologically advanced roofs attached to modern conservatories provide exceptional thermal insulation, ensuring they stay cool even when the weather is at its uppermost peak.

What are my options?

There are plenty of them when you buy your conservatory from Mitchell Glass. We craft conservatories in UPVC, aluminium and timber and supply them in a range of styles.
