Christmas came early at Vale Garden Houses.
My goodness how this year seems to have flown by. It feels like only yesterday that we were closely monitoring the trees bursting into bud and packing our cars with photographic equipment ready to capture this summers finished conservatories and orangeries. Well, there’s no point in recording our beautiful projects in the midst of winter and gloom is there.
The Great Yorkshire Show
Conservatory interiors by Vale exhibited their range of conservatory furniture this year at the Great Yorkshire Show for the first time.
The great Yorkshire Show is the country’s leading agricultural event and is held in Harrogate from Tuesday 13th to Thursday 15th July. This year it saw an impressive 125,000 visitors attend.
Vale Garden Houses’ Building Department
For almost 20 years, Vale Garden Houses have been putting the bases in for our conservatories and orangeries using a totally dedicated local firm of builders. About 5 years ago, we made a decision to provide this service from in house and so a fully employed Building division within Vale Garden Houses was set up. This has been successfully running now for over 5 years and is growing rapidly due to demand for our bespoke conservatories.
Hardwood Conservatories
Vale Garden Houses build Hardwood Conservatories…they build Softwood Conservatories too. They also ‘mix & match’, building Hardwood Conservatories incorporating Softwoods where appropriate, and Softwood Conservatories incorporating Hardwoods when appropriate.
Our New Conservatory Show Model
The exceptionally cold snap in January and February really put us on the spot. Projects had to be delayed and we had a bit of spare time on our hands. This was the perfect time for us to construct our long awaited conservatory show model here at Vale.
Vale Press Office – Conservatories, Orangeries & Roof Lanterns
January was an exhausting time for our press team. All the magazines are preparing for their Spring conservatory features and we are busy getting the latest news out to all and sundry regarding developments at Vale.
Vales Unique Roof Construction
Conservatories and Orangeries have to cope with immense loadings from the weight of the glass, high winds and heavy snow. At Vale, we have developed a unique roofing system for our conservatories, combining timber with metal. With this we are able to achieve greater strengths and spans incorporating double glazed units between fine glazing rafters. The advantages of a technically advanced roofing system are achieved without compromising on traditional detail, therefore the slender appearance of the single glazed conservatories of the past is recreated.
Orangeries & Conservatories – Getting The Design Right
As a high percentage of Vales work is on Listed or period buildings, it’s important to note that orangeries and conservatories can be built to suit any period of architecture, giving careful thought to the nature of the building, its size and the detail used within the build.
