Which design should I choose ?

One of the most important considerations is the design of the conservatory.  Within the UK there is a vast number of different architectural designs of houses, maisonettes, bungalows, etc. and a conservatory that would suit one design, might look extremely out-of-place on another. 

Therefore the first thing to consider is the design of the building.  By doing this you will see the structure as originally intended and you may want to follow that design. Whilst you are outside try envisaging what your property will look like with different types of conservatories.  Taking a photo of the property, which you can use to compare with the pictures in brochures may also be a useful exercise. 

Once you have chosen a design, you might want to consider the colour of the conservatory.  The majority of PVC-U conservatories are white, however, you can get them in a wide range of colours.  Different colours are not your only option, you can also have different woodgrain effects on your conservatory.
