Outdoor SunSpaces News

 

Are you car proud with a favourite, at home parking spot? Protecting your car from the wrath of the elements can sometimes be a challenging task (particularly with the ever-present British drizzle!). Carports are an excellent choice for those looking to shelter their car, while maintaining an ease of arrival and exit – the kind that doesn’t come with parking in a garage.

SunSpaces offer a wide range of bespoke carport structures – they come in a variety shapes and styles so that they can fit your personal style, location and vehicle. Not only do carports from SunSpaces offer the utility of protecting your car from exposure to nature and the weather, they also make a serious aesthetic statement! Our carports are made using the highest quality materials, with an aluminium frame and polycarbonate roof to keep your car sheltered from rain and sunlight.

What Carport is suitable for you and what Carport types are there around?

 

SunSpaces guarantee that they have a carport to fit your needs. There are two main types of carport: Pitched Roof Carports and Free-Standing Arched Carports – but what is the difference and which one is right for you? Read on to find out: 

Pitched Roof Carports

Pitched Roof Carports are perfect if you’d like to add shelter to your current drive-way or property. Pitched Roof Carports can fit a range of requirements, they are a great way of utilising the space where you currently park your vehicle. This carport type is fantastic for protecting your vehicle from the elements whilst looking modern – these are not an eye-sore but an eye-catcher. Not only will you have a clean shiny car, you'll have a stylish addition to your home.

We also do Free-Standing Carports which are great for those of you who are looking to have one built away from your property. These are also suitable for business use in a carpark or workspace – they are not just for home use! As you can see from the images above, they are also fantastic for large vehicles like caravans; if you don’t use your caravan all year round, purchasing a free-standing carport is an excellent way of keeping your caravan protected while not in use. Smart huh? 


SunSpaces Free-Standing structures come in single or double frames – so whether it’s a single vehicle you’re looking to protect, or two – we have sizes suitable for you. This carport type is low maintenance and looks extremely stylish, coming in a range of four different colours. Like our Pitched Roof Carport, these are made from high-quality materials; polycarbonate and aluminium, giving you all-round protection whatever the weather. These carports can be customised to your preferences, you get to choose the colour of your carport and the bespoke features you'd like. You can choose from clear (no sunlight blocking), Opal (blocks some sunlight) or Heat-Repelling Clear (protects you from the sun’s rays without blocking light) dependent on your individual preference.

Garden rooms
 
SunSpaces customers have a near-infinite range of different options to choose from when purchasing their garden rooms, but one of the biggest choices you'll have to make before you install your new outdoor retreat is whether to choose fixed panels and sliding doors.

What are fixed panels?

Fixed-panel garden rooms have fixed windows and standard doors which open outwards from the structure itself. These structures are extremely secure, and many people feel that the 'framed' look is better suited to more traditional outdoor designs. We offer three standard colours here at SunSpaces (Graphite Grey, Cream, and White), but customised RAL colours are available too, allowing you to match your garden structure to the colour of your property.
 
If you like the idea of fixed panels, take a look at our Sanctuary Garden Rooms
 

What are sliding walls?

If you wish to achieve a more modern appearance with your SunSpaces garden room, you may prefer our 'sliding wall' option. These structures have glass walls which double as sliding doors - you can slide them open to let the sunshine in, and close them when the weather gets colder. Sliding wall garden rooms are ideal for creating a seamless transition between your home and your garden.
 
If you like the idea of sliding walls, take a look at our Panorama Garden Rooms
 
If you'd like any further information about your side panelling options, don't hesitate to give a member of our SunSpaces team a call. They will happily talk through the ideas you have for your project and be able to offer their advice on the right style of side panelling for you!
 
 

Here at SunSpaces we love seeing how our products are used to transform gardens and homes into outdoor spaces of luxury. Recently this has been the case yet again as a very satisfied customer has had one of our stunning Panorama Glass Rooms installed onto the rear of their home, to give them a more bespoke living experience. The 5x3m space was installed on-site through our professional garden room installation team, enabling the home-owners to relax and watch all of the hard work get done in order to bring their vision to life. 

 

 

Our Panorma Glass Room with Sliding Walls are perfect if you’re looking to add a touch of sophistication and luxury to your home. Coming with a modern look and stylish sliding walls, our glass rooms enable you to enjoy your outdoor space no matter the weather without posts or pillars spoiling your view. Our Glass Rooms are available in almost any size that you require and come in a range of four distinct colours, however we are able to provide customised colours, bringing a truly bespoke and tailored experience to your glass room. With a range of additional options such as roofing materials, gutters, lighting and heating, these are truly the ideal choice when it comes to transforming your outdoor space!

If you work from home, you might find it hard to distinguish between your home and working life. Fresh air and natural light really help to sustain a good mood over the course of a working day so why not move your office into a SunSpace Garden Room or Verandas?
 
 

Why add a garden office?

There are all kinds of reasons to get your work done in a garden room instead of in the living room, sat up to the dining table, or - heaven forbid - in bed. These include:
 
More natural light. Natural light has a very positive effect on one's brain and overall health compared to artificial lighting. It's even been suggested that exposing workers to natural light improves their performance. You can also enjoy a beautiful view of your garden while you work! 
 
Fresh air. Want to let some fresh air into your workspace? If your workspace is a garden room, all you have to do is open the doors. Of course, if you're working under one of our verandas, you don't even have to do that much!
 
A chance to get away from everyday life. One of the biggest challenges facing those who work from home is the separation of work from home life. Your home is probably full of distractions, and having a garden office that's dedicated to working and completely removed from the rest of your house could do wonders for your productivity.

Your home is completely unique to you, and we at SunSpaces want to keep it that way! We are one of the only companies in the UK who specialise in bespoke garden rooms; this means that instead of selling you a standard, 'off-the-shelf' product, we want to hear all about the ideas you have for your SunSpace so that we can help you to make those ideas a reality.
 
If you'd like to add a garden room to your property, here are some of the options that we can offer you:
 

Lots of different sizes and shapes

SunSpaces are built using a modular system that's almost infinitely customisable. We offer an extensive selection of standard sizes, but if you have something specific in mind, we'll be more than happy to discuss your ideas and provide a bespoke solution.

Your choice of colours

Our verandas and garden rooms can be supplied in practically any colour you like; we offer three colours as standard (Graphite Grey, Cream, and White) but if you'd like something a little more singular, we can use customised RAL colours to meet your requirements.

Top-quality flooring materials

How you floor your SunSpace is entirely up to you; however, we at SunSpaces can supply you with composite wood decking and/or porcelain paving slabs if either of these appeals to you. Both options are extremely low-maintenance, with a range of contemporary styles and colours to choose from!
 
TimberTech decking and PrimaPorcelain tiles

Optional accessories

We offer a huge range of accessories to complement our verandas and garden rooms, including heaters, LED spotlights, coloured sun shades, gutter covers, and a choice of roofing materials.

Anything else?

If you have any other garden room ideas that we haven't mentioned here, don't panic - we'd still love to hear about them! To discuss your garden room project with a member of the SunSpaces team, please contact us now. You can also click here to request a FREE design for your SunSpace!
