Why choose Bifold doors for my home? 

Whether you’re looking to add value to your property for resale or just wanting to give your home a bit of a facelift, the installation of bifold doors is a good way to do this. 
There’re many advantages to bifold doors in comparison to other types of doors. 
Replacing your patio doors for bifold doors is a positive step towards increasing the value of your home. Unlike sliding patio doors or French doors, Bifold doors can fold completely open, giving a smoother open plan feel. Bifold doors can maximise your space as they fold into each other to stack flat against the wall. 
 
In this blog, we’ll be discussing the ways in which installing Bifold doors can increase the value of your home.

Conservatories are a fantastic addition to any home, providing a bright and airy space to relax, entertain your guests or enjoy an unobstructed view of your garden. Unfortunately, some conservatory roofs prevent homeowners from enjoying their space. 
 
Over time, a conservatory roof can become worn or damaged, leading to further issues such as leaks and heat loss. Polycarbonate or glass roofs tend to become worn more quickly due to constant exposure to different weather conditions. 
 
But how do you know when it’s time to replace your conservatory roof? In this blog, we'll explore some of the key signs to look out for. This will help you determine when it's time to upgrade your conservatory roof and finally enjoy your conservatory once again.

Many homeowners in the UK are choosing to get a conservatory rather than building an extension. This is because conservatories are quicker to install, and they allow more natural light into your home. They also allow homeowners to enjoy their gardens more often. 
 
Traditionally, conservatory roofs are made from polycarbonate or glass to let in more light. Unfortunately, this also means homeowners can’t enjoy their conservatories all year round.

At the moment, everyone is aware of how expensive heating our homes will be this winter. Even with Truss’ announcement that she will be capping the costs, this winter will be the most expensive winter in the UK’s history. With that in mind, heating a garden room might not seem high on your list of priorities. 
 
But if that garden room doubles as an office, you may not have a choice but to find ways to keep that room warm. Short of setting a bonfire in the middle of your garden room, you’ll be looking for cost-effective ways of heating your garden room beyond wearing a big coat. 
 
Here are some ideas for this coming winter. 
Windows and Doors
 
uPVC is a popular choice when it comes to windows and doors because they’re low-maintenance and durable all year round. Unlike wood, uPVC doesn’t rot and is the more cost-effective choice. 
However, over time your window frames and doors will gradually become dirty due to the build-up of grime and dust. If you have white uPVC, regular cleaning of your windows and doors will help them keep their bright white finish. 
 
When it comes to cleaning uPVC, less is more; you don’t need lots of chemicals to get the job done.
