New build, extension and self build projects
Who this page is for: new build, extension and self build projects in Caerleon
This page is for work on a new structure rather than a replacement in an existing opening. Tolerances, cill details and the order of trades matter far more than they do on a straight swap.
Where this job stands or falls
- Thermal performance figures for the SAP or Part L calculation
- Structural opening sizes agreed and issued to the builder in writing
- The door is closed, locked, and left overnight before final adjustment, so any settlement is captured before sign-off.
- The threshold ramp on an accessible door is set to a maximum 15mm rise, checked with a spirit-level lip.

What we typically find on conservatories surveys around here
- ·Wet-set fixings through the outer frame have rusted and stained the surrounding brick.
- ·The composite slab has swelled by 2mm on the hinge stile from years of morning-sun exposure.
- ·A tenant repair on the bathroom window has used bathroom silicone as the primary bead — it's already gone black.
- ·The letterplate has a hinged internal flap that has snapped off and is currently held in place with masking tape.
- ·The old timber sub-frame under the current uPVC unit is still in place and is soft at the bottom left corner.
- ·The old aluminium sliding door has grit in the track that has worn the roller wheels to elliptical.
- ·The bay-corner post has bowed by about 4mm across two metres — visible only if you sight along it.
- ·The bottom rail on the sash has taken years of rain runoff and swollen enough to bind on the frame.
- ·The composite door skin has a UV bloom on the south-facing elevation that no longer matches the colour on the shaded elevation.
- ·The internal glazing bead sits proud of the frame by 1.5mm, so the seal at the top corner has failed first.
- ·The front door threshold weather-bar seal is missing its rubber blade and the metal channel is bent.
- ·Two units have the classic dust ring inside the sealed gap, meaning the perimeter seal has been breached for at least a year.
- ·There is a hairline crack running diagonally from the top corner of one bathroom pane where the frame has twisted.
- ·The bathroom pane is patterned glass from the original build, and the pattern is no longer a current stock line.
- ·The multipoint lock still throws but the internal handle has 40° of dead travel before engaging.
- ·The kitchen window has a defrost line across the low-e coating — argon gas long gone.
Why residents are booking conservatories right now
- ·The owner is dealing with a partner who works nights and needs the bedroom acoustically watertight before summer.
- ·The owner wants the master bedroom quiet enough for a night-shift partner to sleep past 11am.
- ·The homeowner is on a smart meter and can see the room-by-room heat loss on a phone app.
- ·The resident wants the ground-floor windows to be genuinely secure — laminated inner pane, PAS24 hardware, real not marketed.
- ·The homeowner is done with the whistle the front door letterplate makes in a north wind.
- ·The homeowner wants the back door to be a family door — kids in and out, and no one having to slam it to lock.
- ·The buyer wants the property to look owned rather than tenanted — the front door tells that story first.
- ·The resident is a keen gardener and wants a patio door that opens as fully as possible into the garden.
- ·The buyer wants the property to be quieter after 11pm — the street noise is fine, the bass from next door is not.
- ·The owner wants the property to look ten years newer without needing an extension.
- ·The owner is done reheating rooms every hour because the frames leak the heat straight back out again.
- ·The buyer wants a composite door slab that a courier's boot cannot dent when a delivery is fumbled.
- ·The resident wants the front door lock to be re-keyable if a set of keys goes missing in year three.
- ·The buyer wants a survey that says no to things when they don't fit, not just yes to everything they ask for.
- ·The resident does not want to be sold to — they want a survey, a written figure, and to be left to decide.
- ·The owner is buying and wants to time the frame swap for the week between exchange and moving in.
How our fitters actually do the work
- ·The old broken glass is bagged in a labelled sack, not tipped loose into a general skip.
- ·The old frame's fixing holes in the brick are filled and made good before the new outer frame beads up to the reveal.
- ·The internal cill is scribed to the reveal, not just butted and caulked over the gap.
- ·The internal architrave is coped rather than mitred where the reveal wall is out of true.
- ·The frame drainage caps are proven flowing before the beading goes in — a bottle of water down the outer chamber.
- ·The glass has a factory kite mark visible at handover — not scraped off by a lazy cleaner during the fitting hour.
- ·The frame reinforcing steel is confirmed inside the top rail before the transom fixing is chosen.
- ·The bathroom obscure glass pattern is confirmed with a physical sample against the existing pane, not chosen from a brochure image.
- ·The composite door slab is inspected under torchlight for delamination before the hinges are fitted.
- ·The glazing bead is tapped in with a rubber mallet, not a metal claw — the profile marks otherwise.
- ·The internal beads are numbered on removal so they return to the same corner they came from.
- ·The window board is scribed to the plaster line, not left with a caulked gap that shows in raking light.
- ·The crew takes the old glass off site in a labelled sack that day, not a skip left on the drive.
- ·The old cylinder is disposed of by the crew, not left in a bag on the drive for the client to bin.
- ·The trim between the frame and the plaster line goes on last, after the sealant has set and been proven leak-tight.
- ·The multipoint hooks are lubed with the manufacturer's grease, not household oil that dries and gums.
FAQs — conservatories in Caerleon
Can conservatories handle conservation-area rules on frame profile and colour?+
Directly, yes — 20-year frame life with the modern warm-roof option keeping the room usable year-round. That matters in Caerleon where conservation-area rules on frame profile and colour is the single most common reason people call us.
Why replace the whole set rather than one-by-one in a Caerleon home?+
Because old polycarbonate-roof conservatories that overheat in summer and freeze in winter — a solid warm roof fixes both rarely stays isolated — once one unit goes, the rest follow within a few years. Doing it once means matching frames across the elevation and one trip for our team into NP18.
Will conservatories suit the older Roman-era heritage streets common around Caerleon?+
Warm-roof upgrades suit the wetter South Wales climate — they hold heat and stop the roof drumming during valley downpours. We've installed dozens in Ultra Pontem and Bulmore alone.
Do you do commercial conservatories for sites near Celtic Manor?+
Yes. We've worked across Celtic Manor and Coldra Park to the south, supplying the same uPVC or aluminium frame system build we use on residential. Commercial quotes include site access notes and out-of-hours options.
How do you reach jobs in Caerleon from your base?+
Straight in off M4 J25 or the B4236 — Caerleon is one of our quickest same-day survey runs — typically a short run via B4236.
Can you supply performance figures for building control?+
Yes. U values, ventilation provision and safety glazing positions are supplied in writing with the quotation for the SAP or Part L submission.
When should glazing be ordered on a new build?+
As soon as the openings are confirmed. Manufacture takes weeks rather than days, and ordering late is the most common reason glazing holds up a build programme.
