Sunrooms

There aren’t many home improvement companies in this area who can literally take on every aspect of your extension on their own, but Speedy can. We have our own teams of builders, architects, plumbers, plasterers and fitters, so you will only need us for the job.

It’s much easier and less hard work just having one company oversee everything, rather than needing to appoint a series of specialists.

Dream Big – You can create and watch your extension come to life in 3D if you try out our design software in our showroom. It will give you an amazing look at the actual thing, internally and externally, before it has even been built. Only you can approve the finished product.

Hassle Free – In the event of the extension needing planning permission or building regulations approval, Speedy Home Improvements will assist with obtaining this.

Huge Choice – Extension buyers get a multitude of choices in terms of the sheer volume of windows and doors they can choose from, as well as a great pick of roofing systems and ceilings.

Feel Involved – You will receive regular updates on the progress of the installation, from when you can expect us to start building it to when it will be complete.

Surprisingly Affordable – You would be surprised at how inexpensive our home extensions can be as you can spread the cost of buying one over a period of 5-15 years.

We know a lot of local brick merchants, so we rarely have difficulty finding bricks or stones that closely resemble the appearance of any bricks or stones that already feature in a property. By finding a good matching brick or stone, it helps to blend an extension into a building more easily and make it look like a natural extension of a house. Just so you know, there will be weathering differences between new and current bricks. If we do have trouble locating a suitably-matched brick, we can always tint the brick to make it match, but this will cost extra.

You will find that there are a variety of potential window styles for your new home extension and they each have their own personality. Choose a window style that both appeals to your eyes and provides the sort of functionality that you want from your windows. Here is a selection of window styles in our extensive range:

Casement Windows – Rightly referred to as a classic window style, the casement window has a very unfussy appearance and looks right at home when fitted in any property type. They cost less than many window offerings, offering great security and energy efficiency. You can also accessorise them in endless ways.

Bay Windows – For a window bursting with character and charm, the bay window takes some beating. It has a slight outward projection too, which will make your extension feel roomier.

Vertical Sliding Windows – You will struggle to find a more versatile window offering than a vertical sliding window. Built using UPVC or aluminium, it’s very low-maintenance.

Envisage Flush Windows – Those who have a good knowledge of windows might realise that our ‘Envisage’ range has been heavily influenced by the traditional wooden flush casement. The flush it has is adaptable and Envisage windows are often installed at Heritage homes and new-builds.

Picking a window style in one decision that needs to be made. The next decisions revolve around selecting a preferred frame, colour and hardware for the windows. It’s this personalisation that will dictate whether your extension has a traditional cottage feel or modern look.

We want you to have the confidence that we have in our extensions, so that’s why we supply them all with a 10 year guarantee. This guarantee hopefully provides you with great peace of mind as you will know that if any issues occur with the extension, we will come straight out to fix them at no extra charge. It’s very rare that our extensions fail within this time span as the materials and components we use to build them are first-class.

Further to the 10 year guarantee for the extension, you will also receive a 20 year window and door guarantee, which acts as cover for all of the extension’s windows and doors. We repeatedly subject our windows and doors to various testing procedures to check that they can last for at least two decades. We are a firm believer that windows and doors that only last for 5, 10 or 15 years don’t go far enough.
