Case Study: Mrs Bull’s Modular Glass Extension Story

The Conservatory Problem

Mrs Bull once loved her old conservatory. It offered views of the garden and plenty of sunlight. But over time, it became a problem. It was often draughty and cold. Rain made it too noisy to relax. She dreamed of replacing it with a space that was modern, warm, and comfortable all year round.

A New Discovery- Modular Glass Extensions!

While researching her options, Mrs Bull discovered a new way to extend her home. She learned about the modular glass extension. Unlike a traditional build, this type of extension is made in a factory and assembled quickly on site. As a result, it causes far less mess and disruption. It also offers excellent thermal performance. For Mrs Bull, it was the perfect answer.

Building the New Space

Once the old conservatory was removed, work on the new extension began. In just five days, her home was transformed.

  • Day One: Builders installed the foundations and the base.
  • Day Three: The walls and roof panels were in place, showing the shape of the new space.
  • Day Five: The glazing and finishing touches were complete. The new room was watertight and ready to use.

The finished extension had a crisp white rendered exterior. The windows and doors were made of anthracite grey aluminium. Two large roof lanterns brought natural light pouring into the space. Inside, an internal wall was removed. This created a bright, open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. It now flows beautifully out into the garden through stylish bi-fold doors.

Enjoying the New Space

Even though it snowed during the build, Mrs Bull found the new room warm and quiet. The quality of the insulation and construction impressed her.

“It was like a huge jigsaw puzzle,” she said. “After just two days, the roof was already on and we just couldn’t believe the speed! In summertime it’s beautiful… and in winter, it’s lovely and cosy without any draughts.”

Now, with her dog Ted curled up beside her, Mrs Bull enjoys a space that’s practical and beautiful. It’s a room she can use all year round, filled with light and built to last.
