During these times of self-isolation, our outdoor spaces at home and our gardens are more important than ever. By now, you’ve probably tidied your garden, weeded the flower beds and planted flower and vegetable seeds. Have you thought about installing outdoor lighting to help you make the most of the garden into the evening, or putting up bird feeders to encourage more avian visitors to your garden?
If you are ready for a project to help you get the most out of your home and garden during isolation, read on for our top 5 ideas for additions to your home and garden:
1. Decking
Adding decking next to your house can help to create a seamless transition from the interior to the garden and a pleasant place to enjoy dining or even working outside. Alternatively, consider installing decking elsewhere in the garden, perhaps to catch the late afternoon sun.
2. Garden room
Garden rooms are one of the most versatile additions you can make to your garden. Garden rooms give you extra space and can be used as a home office, or for leisure uses such as a bar, home gym, a craft and hobby room, a ‘(wo)man cave’ or even a playroom.
3. Glassroom
If you need extra space a Weinor Glasoasen Glass Room is a stylish and practical choice, comprising a patio roof enclosed with glass elements including frameless glass doors which offer a seamless transition from indoor to outdoor spaces. With a glass room, you will be able to enjoy the garden year-round even during inclement weather. Options include energy-efficient LED lighting, retractable electronic sunscreen and infrared patio heaters. A glass room can be designed to fit your garden and home perfectly.
4. Retractable veranda roof
Our Weinor retractable roofs allow you to enjoy your outdoor space without worrying about our changeable British weather. On hot, sunny days the retractable awning provides welcome shade and protection from the sun. You can control the projection of the awning, meaning that you can keep yourself in the shade as the sun moves overhead.
When the weather changes, you can still enjoy being outside with protection from wind and rain and integrated LED lighting means that you can continue to stay out into the evening. The awnings are tailor-made and you are able to choose from over 200 colours to suit your personal style. The Weinor Pergotex Roof is even extendable with glass wall elements, should you wish.
5. Conservatory, orangery or extension
Adding a conservatory, orangery or extension gives you much needed extra space without the hassle and expense of moving home. You can use the extra space to extend a kitchen or dining area or to create extra living space, a gym or home office. Our expert designs will help you to integrate your home and garden so that you can make the most of both spaces. Light-filled additions such as a conservatory or orangery really do help to bring the outdoors inside, helping you make the most of your home and garden all year round.
