“ For homeowners considering adding extra space to their home , they do now seem to think ‘ if I ’ m going to pay all that money , then I want it to look like an extension ’ and not a conservatory ,” says Ryan . “ In addition to this , we see more often that homeowners are considering the garden area more during extension – that ’ s to say that outdoor living is becoming as much a part of the process as physically adding onto the home too .
“ Connaught Conservatories was set up in 2006 by my stepfather David Gallagher and I joined the business around 10 years ago , moving over from a large developer . We have a team of 17 in total , and some have been here since day one .
“ Our focus for 2024 has been the hup ! and complementary roofs , and looking at garden products for homeowners looking to make the most of their indoor and outdoor living spaces . We believe installers should be doing the same .
“ For those who aren ’ t sure about adding this type of system as a product or a service , we say look for the support available . Our team will always be on hand for technical advice and assistance , we can provide help for surveying and specification , and we can offer an on-site service , especially for that first fit to help you get started .
“ But more than that , with hup ! you really get the best of both worlds as this support extends to Ultraframe too ; the full package of marketing , sales and technical support straight from the source .
“ We ’ ve always focused on roofs ; conservatory roofs and solid roofs , plus roof lanterns . We ’ re an approved supplier for Ultraframe and we were one of the first Guardian fabricators in the country , when we first ‘ set up shop ’ 17 years ago .
“ Our typical customer will order one to three roofs a month , while a bigger client

will require up to five glass roofs a week – and we operate nationally up to the Borders and down to North Essex , Norfolk and Bristol , across to Manchester , Liverpool and North Wales , and we have a lot of customers across the North East .
“ With our industry experience and speciality in the solid roof and conservatory
|
roof sector , combined with this shift we ’ ve seen in the marketplace for extensions , at the end of 2023 we started to supply the hup ! system from Ultraframe .
“ As an approved supplier for their roof products , this was the natural next step for us and we know it ’ s the natural next step for installers too – we ’ ve already started to see businesses take it on and see the benefits .
“ Other installation companies have been a bit more cautious in taking on a product like this , which we understand , but with the right technical expertise and support , it ’ s more than just another string to your bow , it ’ s a branch of business that can continue to thrive .”

This year , Pro Installer and Connaught Conservatories have teamed up to bring businesses news of the hup ! home extension system . With the market for extended living spaces still on the hup !, taking on a new system is a savvy decision for installation companies looking to meet market demand .
We hear the saying ‘ all under one roof ’ a lot but what about what is in the roof and under the roof too ? For installers looking to explore new conservatory and solid roof options – or even extend their business into extensions – the sky seems to be the limit for homeowners wanting bigger , brighter and lighter spaces in their homes .
