Verandas, practical and easy to make extensions

When a family grows, the need for more space in a house becomes an emergency and the construction of a veranda remains a good idea, as it offers additional living space and at the same time a light-filled entrance area. In the opinion of Verandas du Tregor, designer and installer of verandas, there is a real craze for verandas for several reasons; first of all, it meets a need for light and softness with that pleasant feeling of being both inside and outside and being protected outside while enjoying the daylight.

The second reason is that it is a very interesting investment as you do not need a building permit to put in place a veranda not exceeding 40 square meters, in this case you only need a simple authorization from the town hall. Moreover, it is not obligatory to call in an architect unless the veranda exceeds 150 square metres, which is rarely the case. The third reason is the accessibility offered by the technical evolution of construction and the variety of materials used, the costs of which are becoming lower and lower.

The performance of new materials

Verandas du Tregor is of the opinion that the building materials are now more efficient to make this extension well insulated and convenient to use in summer and winter. In addition to being a room that stands out in daylight and is well insulated, the veranda also reinforces the thermal seal of the façade to which it is glued. Thus, the thermal and acoustic comfort of the occupants is ensured throughout the house.

More than 95% of verandas today are made of aluminium or PVC. These are light materials that allow the realization of all possible styles. Glazing has also made great progress in terms of sound and heat insulation. The veranda has become a real living room and that’s why people build so many of them.

For better thermal insulation

Insulating glazing ensures good insulation against both cold and heat by introducing an insulating gas between the panes. For greater performance, especially in a south-facing conservatory, you can choose solar-control glazing. This type of glazing has the ability to repel a large part of the sun’s rays. You should know that most verandas today have an aluminum frame. This material has the advantage of cutting off thermal bridges and therefore prevents heat loss.

According to Verandas du Tregor’s opinion, for a veranda to be well designed, its architecture must be in harmony with the style of the house. Thus, this extension can have a bright appearance especially with the choice of a fully glazed roof. Veranda shapes adapt to any environment and can incorporate any wall plan. Another form of conservatory can be composed of a transparent part and a single roof part. Before deciding on the type of veranda for your home, consult professionals. This saves you time, allows you to design a custom-made veranda and you will have original ideas for your home.
