Season of Warm Colours

Well, autumn is well and truly here, it can be a beautiful season with the leaves turning gorgeous shades of gold, red and brown, but on the downside the evenings get darker earlier and damp mists and chilly days return.
 

Interestingly, according to a study by 'The Journal of Ageing Research', people who are born in the autumn are more likely to live to the ripe old age of 100! It's also said that those born in autumn do better in education.
 

Whilst you can't control when you were born, you can make sure you and your home are prepared for autumn. Now is a good time to check your doors and windows and consider more up-to-date, energy efficient replacements if they are old and worn. Similarly you may like to replace your conservatory roof with a Warm Roof or our new Livinroof that provides better thermal efficiency - have a chat with the Horsford Team!

A conservatory is a lovely place to relax on a summer’s day, but have you found yours a little too hot during the recent soaring temperatures? What you need is a Horsford Warm Roof.

Over The Moon!

When it gets to autumn homeowners start to think about ways to make their home warmer for the coming winter. In addition to new windows and doors that offer greater energy efficiency, we’re pleased to install the innovative, insulated Warm Roof, designed to keep your conservatory or orangery at a more ambient temperature throughout the year.

Mr and Mrs T of Taverham were “over the moon” with their new Warm Roof, which not only looks very stylish, but is thermally efficient (U-Value of 0.15 W/m²⁾ due to its excellent insulation system. Their conservatory used to be cold in the winter but at times too hot in the summer, now they’re looking forward to using their comfortable ‘new’ room throughout the year.

Replacing your existing conservatory roof with a Warm Roof converts your conservatory from a ‘some time’ room into a year-round integral part of your home! Just look at what we did for Mr and Mrs T!

Winter Ready

With winter already starting to bite, many people are appreciating the benefits of updating their windows and doors to keep out the cold.



At Horsford we've been updating the windows, doors and in some cases conservatory roofs of many Norfolk homes, giving them a great new look and warmer feel.

Mr and Mrs H of Barford chose stylish new frames and a Horsford Warm Roof for their conservatory to help keep them snug this winter. We think you'll agree the finished project looks great!

What A Transformation!

As much as you may love your existing conservatory, does it offer sufficient insulation to make it energy efficient and to maintain an even, year-round temperature?

It’s possible to transform your conservatory, both in terms of providing a more constant, ambient temperature and improving appearance, by replacing the existing roof with a smart new Horsford Warm Roof. Available in a range of tile and slate finishes, the roof not only performs better, it looks better too!

The tiled roofing system (using Extra Light tiles) offers greater insulation, making it more thermally efficient, reduces necessary maintenance and comes with a 25-year guarantee. With the choice of a flat or vaulted ceiling internally that can be given a plaster or timber effect finish, your conservatory becomes more usable as an ‘extra room’ whether it be for dining, entertaining or relaxing.

We recently completed a new Warm Roof for Mrs H who is very pleased with the results, which you can see in these great photos.

New For Spring

With the welcome appearance of spring, we tend to get our homes in order, start the spring-cleaning and assess what work we need to do on our properties.

The wet winter may well have taken its toll on your home. Have you noticed an increase in damp patches and condensation? Or maybe your conservatory roof has developed a leak? Now is the time to address these problems.

Excess condensation either between glazing panels or around the frames could be a sign that your windows are due for replacement. At Horsford we offer a stylish range of energy efficient windows, expertly fitted and backed by FENSA registration.

As for that leaky conservatory roof, we can repair or replace the roof, or indeed your whole conservatory. Perhaps you would like to replace your existing conservatory with one of our popular orangeries, which offer a substantial brick structure, but still provide windows large enough for you to enjoy the sunshine and your garden from the comfort of your home.

Whether your are looking to repair or replace your doors, windows, conservatory or orangery, then Horsford are always happy to give advice and a quote, then carry out any work to very high standard.

A Room For All Seasons

With summer behind us, autumn starting to bite and winter not far on the horizon, you may feel that you don’t get the opportunity to enjoy your garden as much as you’d like.

At Horsford, we have the solution to enjoying your garden all year round, whatever the weather – our stylish, bespoke orangeries allow you to appreciate the outdoors from indoors!

Orangeries differ from conservatories in that they incorporate a smaller roof lantern as opposed to a fully glazed roof and are more substantial structures with generally less glazing, whilst still having large enough windows to offer a great view of your garden. Less overall glazing means that an orangery doesn’t get quite as hot in summer or quite as cold in winter as a typical conservatory.

The addition of an orangery to your home creates a whole new room linking together your indoor space and your garden. Ideal for relaxing or entertaining in, using as a home office space or as an extra living room, a Horsford orangery is a valuable asset to any home.

A Roof For All Seasons

At Horsford, we fit and supply conservatories to suit all styles and sizes of property.

Conservatories are a popular addition to many homes, increasing living space, whilst adding character. However, when fitted with glazed roof panels, they can ‘overheat’ during the summer months, yet cool down a little too much in the winter. That’s why Horsford is pleased to introduce the new tiled roofing system for conservatories.

The tiled roof structure offers a fully insulated system, with a U-value of just 0.15, keeping the internal temperature more constant throughout the year. The 100m insulation panels also provide noise reduction, making your conservatory an even more peaceful and comfortable place to be.

The tiles are available in a variety of colour options and materials. Composite roof slates consist of a blend of slate and polypropylene, ensuring durability – they do not warp or crack. Alternatively, standard, lightweight steel tiles are available to suit all tastes and budgets.

Whether planning a new conservatory, or looking to replace the roof of an existing structure, this tiled roof system will provide an ambient environment with a stylish finish.

Opt For An Orangery

Orangeries have become popular alternatives to conservatories in recent times, but how do the two really differ?

The main difference in the structure of an orangery is the roof, which incorporates a glazed lantern, as opposed to the entire area of the roof being glazed as with a conservatory.  

Another major difference in the design is the sidewall, with orangeries offering a more substantial structure compared to the typical conservatory. An entablature (deep-moulded fascia) surrounds the perimeter of the doors and windows, and classic orangeries have traditional colonnades – columns flanking the windows and doors below the entablature, consisting of period bases and detailing. 

Horsford’s bespoke orangery designs incorporate all the classic architectural elements, including roof lantern, glazing, colonnades and carefully planned proportions, to create a traditional, stylish structure to complement your existing building. However you plan to use your orangery, it will make a welcome addition to your home, adding both stylish living space and value to your property.

The construction of orangeries in this country dates back to the 17^th century, when orangeries were built in the grounds of many fashionable residences, originally to house citrus trees during the winter months. However the earliest recorded orangery was built in Padua, Italy in 1545, with popularity for the structures rising with the advent of the production of clear glass in substantial quantities. These original orangeries tended to be huge buildings, not just used as plant houses, but designed to demonstrate the wealth and importance of their owners. Orangeries were even designed to contain fountains, grottos and areas to entertain guests.

Modern orangeries may be smaller structures, but they are designed to incorporate many original features and make stylish yet practical additions to the home. Providing light, airy, yet warm living spaces with aesthetic appeal, an orangery can add space, interest and value to your property, whether you are looking for an area to entertain, relax or bring your garden into your home.

At Horsford, we are pleased to offer bespoke orangeries, with a full, friendly yet professional service provided throughout the planning, construction and after-care stages.
