Conservatories
Contemporary Structures designs and builds custom conservatories tailored to your home's architecture. Our solutions prioritise energy efficiency with low-e glass and thermal insulation. Ideal for creating year-round living spaces that enhance property value and provide functional, aesthetically pleasing extensions. Clients benefit from our 20+ years experience, transparent pricing, and comprehensive after-sales support. Each project includes expert consultation, bespoke design, and durable materials to ensure long-term satisfaction.
Orangeries
Our orangeries blend traditional 18th-century design principles with modern double-glazing and solar-control glass. These structures provide elegant living spaces that maintain temperature stability throughout the year. Featuring brick or wooden bases with glazed sides, our orangeries are ideal for extending homes while preserving architectural integrity. The Ultima range offers contemporary interpretations with guaranteed durability. Clients receive design consultations, structural engineering support, and maintenance guidance as part of our complete service offering.
Glass Extensions
Contemporary Structures specialises in frameless glass extensions that maximise natural light while minimising environmental impact. Our thermally-efficient installations meet current building regulations with low-e coatings and argon-filled panels. These structures create seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces through bi-fold door systems and innovative framing solutions. Each project includes custom design assessments to optimise space utilisation while maintaining energy efficiency standards for both residential and commercial properties.
Bi-Fold Doors
Our bi-fold door systems offer versatile access solutions with corrosion-resistant aluminium frames and multi-point locking mechanisms. Available in inward/outward opening configurations with low-threshold options, these doors achieve U-values of 1.8W/mK for energy efficiency. The counter-balanced design ensures smooth operation while maintaining security standards. Each installation includes thermal performance guarantees, maintenance recommendations, and compliance with current building regulations for both new constructions and retrofit applications.
Interior Design
Led by AIM Awards-qualified designer Tammy Bee, our interior design service integrates flooring, lighting, and decoration to complement structural additions. The three-stage process includes detailed consultations, formal proposals with colour schemes and furniture layouts, and supplier coordination. Clients retain full creative control while benefiting from our network of trusted contractors. The service extends to both domestic and commercial projects with budgets starting from 5,000, ensuring functional yet aesthetically-pleasing completions.
