Conservatory Specialists - Why Does It Matter?

A conservatory installation is an effective way to expand your home and bring more natural light into your property. Your home is a cherished space, and an expertly built conservatory has many benefits, but poorly executed installations can be detrimental to your property’s performance and appearance.

When it comes to extending your home by adding a conservatory, there are many routes you can choose to take. You may decide to:

• hire a local installer or builder to do the work for you 

• opt for a company that manufactures, supplies and installs your new conservatory 

However you choose to carry out your home improvement project, we recommend only purchasing products and services from conservatory specialists. Investing in a conservatory that meets all current standards and that is installed by experts is worth every single penny. The approval and validation from key industry organisations is more than just a certificate, it is proof that the products and services you are purchasing meet the highest possible standards.

Here at Ultraframe, we have been enhancing homes across the UK with our market leading conservatory, orangery and home extension roofing systems for over 30 years. We are proud to have received several accreditations over the decades, so that homeowners can trust Ultraframe to provide top quality products.

Top Accreditations for Conservatory Companies 

There are many accreditations conservatory specialists can receive and at Ultraframe, we are proud to be accredited and approved by several key industry organisations.

The best conservatory companies will have the stamp of approval from several regulatory organisations, including (but not limited to) the following:

• Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) - The GGF is made up of over 200 leading glass manufacturers, installers and suppliers. This organisation was established to promote high standards in the glazing industry and all members must undergo thorough testing and follow the GGF code of good practice. A GGF accreditation is government recognised and the organisation plays a large role in influencing building regulations and standards.

• The British Standards Institution (BSI) - The BSI is the UK’s national standards body, producing technical standards on a broad range of services and products. Conservatory companies, installers and products can comply with several BSI regulations, and certain frameworks and companies will have more accreditations than others. 

• When searching for the best conservatory roof replacement companies and conservatory specialists, look out for companies that comply with the BSI standards, including:

• ISO 14001:2015 - This is the standard companies must meet to show they are doing all they can to be as environmentally friendly as possible.

• ISO 9001:2015 - Companies that meet this standard are able to demonstrate that they can consistently provide services and products that meet regulatory and consumer requirements.

• BSEN 12608 - By meeting this standard, you can rest assured that your new conservatory is made from high standard materials, is impact resistant and the framework features strong corners.

• BS 7412 – To comply with this BSI regulation, conservatories must meet high tolerance requirements in construction, safety, security and weather resistance.

• Double Glazing & Conservatory Ombudsman Scheme - Conservatory companies with a DGCOS accreditation only use installers who are vetted annually, ensuring they continue to comply with the rules of the scheme. When you choose to work with a DGCOS company, you will benefit from free deposit protection, a free insurance back guarantee and free stage payment protection. A conservatory is a big financial investment, and choosing a DGCOS approved conservatory company can provide you with additional peace of mind.

• British Board of Agrement - The BBA assesses and validates the performance of a range of products, ensuring they comply with building regulations and industry standards. Choosing a BBA approved conservatory company means your new installation has been inspected to determine its safety, quality and performance.
