How to Give Your Old Conservatory a Face Lift

It is not just your house or your garage which can get a face lift. Your self build conservatory can, too. An upgrade for your conservatory may not look like a need but it can actually help in improving or even prolonging its use. It has to remain an enjoyable part of your home or it will become good as nothing.

Your conservatory upgrade does not need to be expensive. You just have to know additions you can make. Below are three things you can start with:

1. Have the glass cleaned

Now, you may have been promised that your glass is self-cleaning. It is true, but a regular check is not bad. Have your glass cleaned and inspected by window cleaners once in a while.

Inspection can also prevent or give you a heads up of future deterioration.

2. Plant shrubs around

Nothing beats seeing greenery around your glass house. Seeing greens gives you a refreshing feeling. If you don’t have any, or if they are too few, plant shrubs around and not trees.

Shrubs can withstand weather changes at the same time not a threat to your conservatory’s structure since they don’t grow tall.

3. Upgrade the lighting

And to enjoy your conservatory at night or to get either a more intimate or lively feeling as you stay there, upgrade the lighting. You can do this by adding accent lighting to your existing primary lighting.

Your types of lighting will have different switches so you can basically choose depending on your mood or the type of ambience you want to have.

Consider the different functions of your self build conservatory and you will be amazed as to how much upgrade you want to do. You may want to work with its original builders especially if the upgrade has a lot to deal with the structure.
