Summer is a key period for home improvements. Homeowners are more likely to commit to projects, weather delays are reduced, and installers can complete work more efficiently. For those already fitting roofs or conservatories- or thinking about expanding into the extension market- this is an ideal time to act.

Homeowners are increasingly moving away from ageing conservatories and toward high-performance extensions that add usable space and value. Demand is growing, and installers who can offer practical, energy-efficient solutions are in a strong position. With Ultraframe’ s hup! system, entering this market is more accessible than ever.

Whether you’ re new to this type of work or looking to expand your services, hup! gives you the tools to do it – without the complexity of traditional building methods.

A Changing Market

The line between conservatories and full extensions continues to blur. Today’ s homeowners want modern spaces that function all year round – whether it’ s an upgraded conservatory, a home office, or a kitchen extension.

But traditional methods like brickand-block can be slow, weather-dependent, and disruptive. hup! was developed to offer a better way to deliver these spaces. It provides a full walling system using pre-manufactured, insulated panels – allowing for faster builds with consistent quality.

For installers, this creates a clear opportunity: deliver full solutions without taking on the risks and delays of a traditional build.

What is hup!? hup! is a panelised building system developed by Ultraframe, designed to simplify the construction of extensions and replacement conservatories.

The panels are lightweight, strong, and thermally efficient. They’ re manufactured off-site and delivered ready to install, meaning you can build the structure of an extension or conservatory upgrade in just a few days.

There’ s no need for wet trades, and minimal on-site adjustment is required. It’ s a controlled, efficient system that delivers a consistent finish, and homeowners appreciate the speed and minimal disruption.

Training and Support Built In

At Connaught, we’ ve supported installers in the conservatory and roofing sector for over 15 years. Our hup! training is tailored to suit your background, whether you’ re used to fitting roofs, managing conservatory projects, or have general building experience.

We’ ll show you how to survey for hup!, explain the installation process in practical terms, and ensure you understand how to position it with homeowners. On-site

support is also available for early projects, helping you build confidence and deliver a high standard from day one.

Helping You Win the Work

A key part of expanding into a new service is how you present it. That’ s why Ultraframe provides a full suite of sales tools; from brochures and spec sheets to installer videos and lead-generation support.

You don’ t need to create these materials yourself, they’ re ready to use and help you demonstrate the quality and performance of hup! to homeowners.

With over 1,000 hup! units already sold, and increased awareness thanks to TV architect Laura Jane Clark’ s involvement in the brand, homeowner interest is growing. It’ s a strong proposition with real momentum behind it.

Proven on Site

Since Connaught began offering hup! in late 2023, uptake has been strong across the board; from experienced conservatory installers to businesses new to the extension market.

Installers report faster build times, higher average project values, and fewer site issues. The ability to offer a full extension or transform an outdated conservatory

into a usable, modern space- without needing a full construction team- makes hup! a valuable addition to any business.

Whether you take on one job a month or ten, hup! is designed to fit into your workflow without major disruption.

Don’ t Miss the Opportunity

With summer in full swing and demand high, this is the right time to explore what hup! can offer. The system has a proven track record, full support is available, and it opens the door to higher-value projects with quicker turnarounds.

If you’ ve thought about moving into extensions- or want to offer more than just roof replacements- now’ s the time to take that step.
